Thursday
Students turned in their commercials and the instructor made a copy.
Small groups were formed so students could talk about their commercial with their colleagues and get ideas for production, copywriting, etc.
At the end of the class, the instructor returned the commercials with feedback.
Tuesday
The instructor handed out deadline dates for The Tower (handout).
Coupon size for the $59 is on the back.
We discussed the midterm. There will be five questions each on chapters 8, 1, 6, 7, and 3.
The instructor handed out a formatted page for students to write their commercial. We wrote the commercials in class. Each student received CPPs for completing a commercial within the time frame of the class.
The reading schedule that some students did not get will be posted here when the instructor returns home after 9 p.m.
To Do for Next Class:
Write your commercial per the 3-column example on the handout. Give a good deal of thought to your commercial, as this is all the instructor has to evaluate your concept and on which to give you suggestions.

The instructor passed out the grading breakdowns on a handout. This shows the point spread for an A, B+, etc.
Students worked from their outlines. The instructor looked at each outline and gave CPP for students who had the required parts. Then the outlines were handed back so students could write the Intro, the preview, and the internal text citations.
First we put in the internal text citations. Next we worked on the preview, and finally the introduction. The instructor had students write out the benefit to the audience of listening to their speech. As an example, Erica will cite two health benefits to students who listen to how sodium affects people in the age bracket for students.
Before Thursday's class, students will finish writing the introduction. They will put that and the preview together and submit the outline for the instructor's critique.
The instructor handed back the outline from the group symposium. The points are on the back.
Outline due date is this coming Thursday, Oct. 13 The midterm is Oct. 20. At a future class the instructor will provide some sample questions. Another option is simply to do the reading questions as an open book exam.

Discuss relaxation techniques and how they can help anxiety over public speaking.
