In addition to the pressure of speaking in front of a crowd of your academic peers, presentation questions can often be difficult to answer for a number of reasons: communication difficulties, lack of information, inability to understand the exact question, or even difficulty hearing the speaker. Even if you know your research topic inside and out, these questions can cause a lot of frustration&nbsp;for even the best researchers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that doesn&#8217;t mean you can&#8217;t prepare for the Q&amp;A session and make it a productive part of your presentation. The following guidelines provide a comprehensive approach to answering questions you are likely to encounter during your research presentations and give you some simple advice on how to respond to these difficult questions and awkward situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Before Your Research Presentation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you even give your presentation, there are some basic strategies you can use to make sure you are not caught off guard by any questions you will be asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Create a list of the possible presentation questions you will be asked<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine you are a fellow researcher sitting in the audience. Which questions would you ask about your study? Break down your questions as they relate to different sections of your research paper (Introduction, Methods, Results, and Conclusion), and write down as many questions are possible regarding this information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>List questions you CAN answer and those you CANNOT (or do not want to) answer<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the questions you write down, some you&nbsp;will be happy to answer, some you will be incapable of answering, and still others you may not&nbsp;<em>want&nbsp;<\/em>to answer (at least not in front of an audience). Divide your questions into these categories so you know exactly how you will begin your response to them if they come up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Practice asking and responding to the questions out loud<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Go through each question and ask it in a couple of different ways (as there are several ways to ask the same question). Practice giving your answers using both your own knowledge about the topic you are researching and the sample sentences provided in this guideline. Practice makes perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>During the Presentation Q&amp;A Session<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 1:&nbsp;Open the Q&amp;A session<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell your audience that you are starting the Q&amp;A session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Presenter<\/strong>: \u201cI will now answer any questions you have about this research.
