The National Institute for Genealogical Studies course, Lecturing Skills Including Preparation, teaches the skills needed to present genealogical-related lectures. It is a “hands on” course where the student presents a lecture via our Virtual Learning Room. We invite you to participate and hear your fellow student. This is a 30-minute lecture, followed by a 10-minute Question & Answer period and a short poll to provide the student with feedback on her skills. Please come and support your fellow students!

This is an excellent learning experience for all involved–the student presenter and the audience! We all can learn new and interesting tidbits, even from topics that are not in our area of research.

Christene Hoffert will present: “Building Evidence: How To Go From Searching For Sources To Researching For Your Ancestors”

Building Evidence explores the use of sources, information and evidence with examples to evaluate whether a proof is possible using citations and notes for Genealogical Proof Standard.

Tuesday, April 5 – 1:00 PM EDT
