Speech 1402 11 a.m.

Thursday

We took the midterm today.

At our next class, we will come to the classroom but then go to a computer lab to finish details on the speech outlines. Students should bring their comments from the instructor from the last speech so they can work on their list of areas on which they would like to improve. In addition, the instructor will give students back their self-critique from their last speech. Items can be put on the list from this paper, too.

To Do for Next Class:

Read Ch. 4, Verbal Comm
Bring speech outline, critique from first speech, and book. Bring research if your Works Cited has been told that it does not have all the right information.


Tues.

The instructor returned some outlines and showed students a few areas on which we needed to work. Using the overhead document cam, outlines written by students were viewed.  Among the items we worked on:
  • preview (we wrote it in class)
  • miscellaneous format items on MLA style
We discussed the midterm, which is just the reading checks from the chapters: 
15, 16, b-1-10, 6, 11, 10, 9, 1. The midterm is for class participation points. A few students who used their cell phone in class will be given additional questions, for which they will not be able to use their book.

The instructor gave the students some areas to study.

On Thursday, we will have the midterm and we will correct it in class.
