JRE 2011 Workshop & Round Table Discussion Format

Structured Presentation and Discussion of the Workshop Format-JRE 2011i
In order to enable maximum interaction and constructive feedback the presentation and discussion of papers will be structured as follows:
First Part: Presentation (5-7 minutes)
The author gives a short presentation, focusing on the "best" part of the paper, or the most challenging one. We limit the presentation to a strictly timed 7 minutes, so please don't give lengthy introductions or summaries. If you concentrate on the essential messages, you will be amazed how much information you can fit into 7 minutes.
In the presentation, the author should name the issues he/she wants to be discussed in the following. They can range from the paper's organization and presentational qualities to the actual ideas behind the paper, depending on the maturity of the paper or how the authors intend to proceed with it after the workshop.
After the presentation, the author becomes a "fly on the wall". This means that he/she listens to the ongoing conversations and takes notes.
Second Part: Moderators encourage discussion between the different participants (30 minutes)
1. Summarizes the main points in the papers and points out the main messages from the authors’ perspectives.
2. Positive feedback. All participants exchange their views on the main topic that connects these papers or ideas, with respect to topic, presentation, practical relevance, impact on research, etc.
3. Questions and suggestions for improvement. The moderator will ask questions about the paper and make suggestions on how to proceed with the work in general. It is possible to make critical statements, but always with the goal of improvement in mind. Again, all aspects can be taken into account.
Third Part: Final Discussion with author (5 minutes)
The last round of discussion consists again of positive remarks. It should encourage the authors to build further on the good parts of his/her work.
Author(s) have the opportunity to respond to questions for clarification, answer previous questions, and initiate further discussions. This allows authors to gain valuable feedback for their work and is encouraged to further elaborate on its positive side.
Read papers in advance!
In order to give yourself and your fellow participants a chance to make the most of these workshops, it is extremely important to read most papers in advance carefully scheduled in the same session as yours. -Please make notes about what things you like about each paper, and what can be improved in your opinion. The discussions will heavily benefit from doing so.
i All the Round Table and workshop formats have been scheduled either before the two hours break for lunch or the end of the day to make sure that any extra needed time can be granted to the session to make sure that the objectives of the workshops can be fulfilled.
