CS, communication is important. Even in the sciences, where traditionally such issues have been (relatively) ignored. You can have the best idea or data in the world, but if you can't communicate it to someone else, it might as well not exist.
That said, I notice a disturbing trend towards 'dressing up' mediocre results. Ppl giving beautifully presented talks about, essentially nothing.
If you want to truly help your students, teach them to think critically about what they see & not to get too bogged down in the glitz & glam.
Cream & bullshit both float to the top. The trick is separating them.
