Course is designed to help students improve public speaking skills. Students will develop the ability to write and give well organized, informative, and entertaining presentations. Students will also develop their ability to speak effectively by focusing on areas that affect clear and comprehensible oral communication, such as pronunciation, intonation, rhythm, etc. Students will also engage in tasks that help to build a more visual presentation.
