Students went to the library to complete a more extensive version of the Myers-Briggs and get their four letters for their personality type. While they were gone the instructor went over the full-sentence outlines.
We revised the group symposium presentations by one week due to the fact that one week had been scheduled during spring break.
The instructor went over the full-sentence outlines and pointed out common errors:
--no internal text citations
--students not using the style guide to write the citations
We then discussed the transition from the full-sentence outline to keyword outline. Index cards must be used: 30-50 words per card. Direct quotes may be put on a separate card.
Students did a sample of their keyword outlines in class and we looked at them on the overhead document cam.
The last thing we did in class was break into small groups. Students had a chance to discuss what they learned from the "I Am" paper and from the personality profile.
Next week:
Read Chapter 11, "Informative Speaking." Convert to key word outline. Make corrections to your outline.Practice speech.Bring camera if you agreed to do so.
