Panel Discussion
A panel discussion, or simply a panel, involves a group of
people gathered to discuss a topic in front of an audience, typically at
scientific, business, or academic conferences, fan conventions, and
on television shows.
This technique is used at the first time by Prof. Herry A. Overstreet
in 1929.
 MEMBERS IN PANEL DISCUSSION
1. Instructor
• Plays an important role in panel
discussion.

• Plans how, where, when panel

discussion will be organized.

• Prepares the schedule for panel

discussion
2. Moderator
• The moderator's job is to help the
audience get their needs met
through a panel format.
• The moderatorsets the tone, the
pace and control of the content,
staying ever-vigilant in keeping it
relevant for the audience.

• It is the moderator's responsibility

to make sure the panel is lively,
engaging and worthwhile.
3. Panelists
• There are 4-10 panelists in the
discussion.

• Panelists are expected to attend

all panel and breakout sessions.

• The primary role of the panelist is

to prepare, share and present
their paper.

 HOW TO CONDUCT PANEL DISCUSSION
PART A: Putting a panel together

1. Select a topic.

• Ideally, the topic of

discussion should be
important to enough
people that you can
involve people with
significantly different
interests or backgrounds.
 2. Recruit varied participants.
• Look for well-informed
people from a variety of
backgrounds. For instance, a
member of the public
involved in the issue,
someone with experience
working with the issue in a
business or nonprofit, and
an academic who has
studied the issue.
 3. Invite a moderator.

• Select an additional person

not participating in the
panel discussion, to serve as
a moderator. Ideally, she
should already have
experience moderating
panels.
 4. Plan the physical setup.

• Individual chairs will make the

participants appear closer to
the audience than a solid table,
encouraging audience
participation. Arranging the
seats in a slight circle, still
mostly facing the audience,
may help the panelists discuss
the topic with each other.
PART B: Planning the Panel Discussion

1. Figure out the goals of the panel.

• Make sure all of the

participants know why
the panel has been
assembled well in
advance, so they have
time to prepare.
2. Consider starting with individual lectures (optional).

• The main focus of the

panel should always be a
discussion. However, if
one of the panel's main
goals is providing
information, this may be a
useful way to precede the
discussion.
3. Write questions for the panelists.

• Try to come up with

several open-ended
questions, which the
panelists can take in a
direction best suited to
the course of the
discussion and their
expertise.
4. Plan out the rest of the panel.

• Determine how much

time you will set aside for
questions; typically, this
constitutes half the
panel's length or more.
5. Introduce the panelists to each other in advance.

• Have the panelists meet

in person or attend a
conference call together,
a week or more in
advance of the panel.
 PART C: Moderating a Panel Discussion

1. Convince people to sit in the front row.

• The closer the panel is to

the audience member,
the more energetic and
involved the atmosphere
will feel.
2. Briefly introduce the panel and each participant.

• Introduce each
participant briefly,
mentioning only a couple
relevant facts about her
experience or
involvement related to
the topic.
3. Collect questions from the audience.

• Listen to each question in

turn, repeat it clearly so
everyone in the room can
hear, then refer it to a
panelist who appears
interested.
4. Thank everyone involved.

• Thank the panelists, the

hosts and organizers of
the event, and the
audience members.
Thank You!
