*The purpose of a cover letter

When writing a cover letter, you should:

 introduce yourself
 mention the job (or kind of job) you're applying for (or looking for)
  show that your skills and experience match the skills and experience needed to do the
job
 encourage the reader to read your resume
 finish with a call to action (for example, asking for an interview or a meeting).

Layout and Design (cover letter)

 Follow standard cover letter format / Keep the cover letter to one page / Set margins at 1
½” / Use a simple, easy to read font style, 10-14 point. (Times, Courier, or Helvetica) /
Use boldface, italics, all-caps and underlining, but don't overdo it.

Planning and Tone

 Tailor each cover letter to one specific position.
 Use industry jargon specific to your career field.
 Identify the employer's key words and use them.
 Make all statements positive. Check the tone by asking yourself if each sentence leaves a
positive impression.
 Show originality but not cuteness.
 Use action verbs and phrases.
 Sound determined and confident not desperate.

Contact Person's Name, Title, Employer, and Address

Including a specific name can get your letter and resume to the hiring manager more
quickly and can be an effective personal touch. If you are applying for an advertised
position that does not give a name to contact, call the company and ask for the
department manager's name.

compare / What should your intro have sound like, body have , conclusion have etc / talk about the
plan in oral presentation not what to do in oral presentation but to study the important things in oral

*The major steps in oral presentations are (planning, structuring, preparing and
presenting).

2) oral presentation
1. Plan
Analyse the audience

Some questions to consider include:

 Who is your audience?

 What do they know about the subject? What terminology will they know?
 What do they want to know?
 How can you engage this audience? What matters to them?

2. Prepare

Structure provides a framework for your presentation.

1. Introduction - an overview of the issue and the main ideas to be considered. Explain
the issue, the background and key terms.
 2. Body - the main ideas, reasoning, evidence and explanation provided. Avoid
overloading your audience with too much information. Categorise your information into
key ideas.
3. Conclusion - a summary of what you have considered with repetition of key ideas.

3. Practise and present

The key to a good delivery is to practise your speech and your body language. Here are
some tips to assist you:

 Practise your presentation several times, aloud and standing up.

 Time the presentation. If it is too long, remove and/or simplify information, rather than
speaking more quickly.
 Stand straight with your feet "planted" in the ground. This will eliminate swaying and
nervous movements in the legs. You can move, but do so with purpose.
 Establish a "resting place" for your hands at the front of your body, such as cupped at
waist level.
 Eye contact is a powerful means to engage your audience so look at your audience
when you speak.
 Speak more slowly and clearly than you normally would. Provide emphasis through
voice intonation, volume and pausing

*The importance of designing effective oral presentations ?

The ability to communicate is the most important goal that communicative language
teaching aims to reach. Students need a lot of opportunity to practice language in
situations which encourage them to communicate their needs, ideas and opinions.

1. Introduction – Greet the audience, Introduce yourself, Explain the purpose of your talk – Start by
introducing the topic, Outline the main points - State your purpose and announce the outline of your
presentation in very simple, precise language. A good introduction will capture an audience’s attention.

2. The main body (methods, results) – Move to a point – outline your talk, State main ideas clearly and
present examples, Introduce a visual aid Use visual aids to engage the interest of your audience. The
information in the body needs to be well-structured. Decide on an organizing principle. It could be by
chronological order, theme or order of importance.

3. Conclusion (Discussion) – Conclude your talk, Summarize the main points, Invite questions and
comments. The facts that need close attention are the following: a. Identify the audience The first thing
to be done when preparing a spoken presentation is to identify the audience as precisely as possible
(experts, technicians, executives, nonspecialists). Different audiences require and are prepared for
different amount and depths of information. The success of a presentation depends on knowing those in
advance

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction – presentation starting with:  An interesting/amazing fact  An engaging story  A question
 Other hooks?

Main Body –Specific Examples of a main body of a presentation showing:  Effective use of transitions
(into the main body and between sections)  Clear explanations using an analogy and/or story  An
example of an internal summary (recapping info before moving onto the next point)

Conclusion –Specific examples of conclusions showing:  Variety in conclusion approach  A transition

into a Q&A session

 A reliable source is one that provides a thorough, well-
reasoned theory, argument, discussion, etc. based on strong evidence.
Websites and blogs - can be reliable or unreliable
Wikipedia - some entries are reliable

Finding reliable sources. How to tell whether a source is reliable source? / how can we of
questions do we ask to find out whether the source is sth that we can use or research or not.

Q. How do I know if a source is reliable?

1) Accuracy. Verify the information you already know against the information found in
the source
2) Authority. Make sure the source is written by a trustworthy author or institution.
3) Currency. Depending on your subject, your currency needs will vary.
4) Coverage. You will also want to examine the content of the source and how it fits your
information needs.
5) Bias : Be aware of your own biases as you consume and use information.
6) Care Taken / Indicators of Quality : Review for correct spelling, grammar, and
mechanics. A quality resource will have been carefully reviewed and edited.

How do I know if a source is reliable?To summarize,

check who published the source, the purpose of the source, when it was
created/updated, and its content. Also see if it has any potential bias and, if a
webpage, provides references or reliable links to other sources.

Questions  1)Relevancy :
Is the scope of the source is appropriate for your research? Does the source provide a
general overview of your topic or is it focused specifically on a single aspect of your topic?
Who is the intended audience for the source? Is the information too basic or too technical?
Does it assume you have prior knowledge about the topic?
How many sources have you found? Have you searched thoroughly enough to find the most
relevant sources available?

2)Currency :
Was this source published recently or is it older? Does your research call for the use of very
current sources (e.g. medical research) or can you use older sources (e.g. historical
research)?
If you are evaluating a website or other frequently updated source, does the website list the
date it was last updated and is the date current enough for your research?
 3)Accuracy :
Has the source been edited or peer-reviewed?
Has the author supplied a list of references for their work? Does the list of references include
scholarly sources?
Does the source include spelling or grammatical errors? Is the source logical, well organized,
and professional in appearance?
4)Authoritativeness
Does the author have expertise on the topic about which he/she is writing? Who is the
author? Is he or she a subject expert on the topic? What are the author's credentials?
Is the source sponsored or published by a reputable organization or institution?

5) Objectiveness of a source :
Is there bias or a slant given to the information provided?
What point of view does the author represent? Is the source arguing for or against
something? Does the source contain mostly factual information or is it opinion-based?
Is the source associated with an organization or institution that is known for promoting a
certain point of view or opinion?

Note: It's okay to use information from sources that contain strong arguments or opinions,
but it's always a good idea to acknowledge the author's view.

Finding reliable sources we should know effects like the website is .com / .edu recorording to the thing
searching for :

there is no right answer that one source might be reliable for a certain purpose but not for another. It
depends on what purpose you need this resource for.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Evaluation is about assessing or judging whether or not you trust a resource. This assessment relies
on you looking carefully at some parts of the resource itself and also looking outside the resource for
additional information.

1)Currency  When was the material published? (NOTE: copyright date is not the same as publication
date)  Is the information accurate for when it was written?  Does your research demand current
information or is older information useful?  How often is research updated in this discipline?  Is this
resource updated frequently?

2)Author  Consult the author’s website/Wikipedia/Sourcewatch to help answer the following

questions: o Does the author have authority on the topic? o Has the author written any other works? o
What are the author’s credentials?  Does the author have a graduate degree in the area she or he is
writing about?  Do they teach at a college or university?  Are they a professional researcher at a
university, government agency or private company? o Do you see a bias or particular point of view in
this author’s affiliations?  Are they a member of a “think tank”- i.e. the Kato Institute or the Brookings
Institute?  Are they a “talking head” – i.e. someone who is a media personality?  Are they associated
with an activist organization that is concerned about the issues that the author is writing about?
3) Publisher/Publication  What, if anything, do you already know about the publisher?  Consult the
publisher’s website/Wikipedia/Sourcewatch to help answer the following questions: o Do they have a
reputation for publishing quality information? o Does the publisher have a clearly articulated editorial
policy? o Is the publisher a university press, a large commercial publisher, a small publisher, or an
alternative press publisher? o If it’s a scholarly journal, do you see a mission statement for original
scholarship or research? Do you see a peer review policy and editorial board full of experts in the field?

4) Point of View  Is the information scholarly, popular, governmental, activist or from a private
business? What influence does this have on how you use the information?  What is the purpose of the
source? How will it impact your research? Is the purpose to inform, entertain, teach, or to influence? 
Is the author giving a factual report, presenting a well-researched scholarly opinion, or relaying a
personal opinion?  Who is the intended audience--general public or other academics and researchers?
 Does the author offer several points of view?  Can you identify objective writing (both sides of the
argument) or a subjective bias (expressing one's own point of view)?  Is the writing style of the author
clear and understandable? Does the author legitimately need to use complex language because of the
subject matter, or is complex technical language used to possibly confuse the reader?

5) Sources  Can you determine where the author gathered the information? (hint: in addition to
citations, bibliographies, works cited pages and footnotes, look for in-text references to outside sources)
 Is the material from original research including case studies, experiments and observations? Are
helpful charts, graphs, or pictures provided? What do these graphics represent?  Is the material from
journalistic investigation including interviews, government reports, think tank reports or eyewitness
accounts?

*Practical Tips for Evaluating Websites:

1. Analyze the content. Does it appear to be of good quality? o Look for a published or last updated
date. o Are sources documented in footnotes or a reference list? o Are there links to more information?
Are they active or dead links? o Is the design appropriate/respectable? (no flashing graphics) o Is the
language free of emotion? o Does the point of view seem impartial? o Are there grammatical, spelling,
or other errors? o Is the site organized well? Is it easy to navigate the content?

2. Look for a date. o Is the site current? o Is there a last updated date listed? Do not count dates that list
today’s date in one corner of the site. This is likely code that displays the current date every day.

3. Look for an “About” page. (or Sponsors, Philosophy, Who we are, etc.) What information is provided
about the site? o Who or what agency is the author? Are they affiliated with any institutions or
businesses? o What are the author’s credentials or qualifications? What is their bias? o How is the
organization funded? o Is contact information provided – does someone take responsibility for the info?
o If there is no “About” page, truncate back the URL one / at a time to learn more about the hosting site.

4. Look at the URL (or web address). What can it tell you? Delete everything from the URL after the
domain (.com, .org, etc.). o What type of organization is behind it? Non-profit (.org) University/college
(.edu) Government (.gov, .mil) Business/Commercial (.com) Foreign (.uk, .jp., etc.)

5. The purpose of the site. Why was the site put up on the web? Inform with facts/data? Share/disclose?
Entice/sell? Explain/persuade? Dupe/rant/satire? Entertain?

From book : oral presentation : ORAL PRESENTATIONS

Tips other than imagining everyone naked

Not many people are a fan of oral presentations unless they really like the sound of their own voice (or,
you know, are just confident people) but presentations can be made a little less stressful with a certain
approach. Your classmates all have to do them as well, so they are probably on your side. There will
always be a know-it-all classmate to ask you lots of questions. Don’t take it personally - they’re just
showing off.

The speech

This is the core of it — talking to an audience about a subject. Keep these things in mind to make the

experience easier:

Know your subject matter : Sound obvious? Before giving the presentation, get as familiar with the topic
as you can. It’s much easier to talk about something you fully understand. Think of how easily you can
talk about your favourite TV show or movie, and then think of something that doesn’t interest you
much. Talking about the first is much easier than the second, right? It’s the same for presentations. If
you know what you’re saying, then you’re less likely to stumble and you’ll generally feel less stressed.

Read from something : You don’t have to write the whole speech down word for word. An audience will
engage more with you if you’re able to make eye contact. Something written down will keep you on
track, but avoid needing to read every word. Try dot points on an A4 sheet, put notes on cue cards, or
draw pictures on the back of your hand. Whatever works for you.

Stick to a format: Like any other assignment, presentations need to be structured. Have you ever had a
conversation with someone when they couldn’t stay on track? Listeners can become frustrated by an
unstructured presentation. Try dividing your points into sections, with some sort of introduction and
conclusion that flow logically.

Use clear and Simple language: Don’t complicate your language if it isn’t necessary. A key to giving a
successful presentation is to impart information to a broad audience, so avoid using language that
alienates anyone.

Involve the audience: It’s not mandatory, but an audience that actively participates in a presentation is
generally more attentive than a passive audience. If you have a particularly dull topic, involving the
audience could be a good way to hold their attention. It can be as simple as directing questions toward
them.
 LEARNING STYLES
*which one of your style Visual Learning and Auditory and Kinesthetic ?

I am a kinesthetic learner, it is likely I possess some of these traits:

I am excellent hand-eye co-ordination and High energy levels. Also, quick
reaction times such as talented at sports. Besides, movement helps
concentration and Gestures when speaking.

Study Tips for Kinesthetic Learners ‫مهمممممممممممممممممممممممممم‬

Kinesthetic learners should use study techniques that take advantage of

their very hands-on brain? Use flash cards/ Study in short blocks/ Use
plenty of examples when writing study notes/ Study with other
people/ Do something while you study/ A note about music while
studying

 Visual: a visually-dominant learner absorbs and retains information better

when it is presented in, for example, pictures, diagrams and charts.
 Auditory: an auditory-dominant learner prefers listening to what is being
presented. He or she responds best to voices, for example, in a lecture or
group discussion. Hearing his own voice repeating something back to a
tutor or trainer is also helpful.
 Kinesthetic: a kinesthetic-dominant learner prefers a physical experience.
She likes a "hands-on" approach and responds well to being able to touch
or feel an object or learning prop.

You can use the VAK Learning Styles model to classify some of the most
common ways people learn. VAK stands for visual, auditory and kinesthetic:

 Visual: learners respond to images and graphics.

 Auditory: learners prefer verbal presentations.
