Advertising

We had three students present advertising questions today.

The instructor used the doc cam to show a brochure which was a good example of how to use character fonts with type and illustrations.

We discussed who would bring what for the party. We are going to order pizzas. Some students will bring sodas, brownies, cookies, etc. The instructor is bringing the tableware and a salad.


Next class:

Student presentations
Be working on your question and your ad
Bring $3 for the pizza fund. One of the students is in charge of the funds. Another has agreed to order the pizzas. The instructor has learned of a pizza firm in Elizabeth who delivers regularly to the department, so they know where to find us.

Speech Critical 1402 Tuesday

We met at the library and Librarian Craig Ferguson showed students how to use the databases. There may be a quiz on his presentation and students should check this blog post later, as the questions to the quiz will be posted here.

After Craig's presentation, the instructor showed students how to do APA style. APA is to be used for the persuasive speech.

She showed students a web site called Writer's Help. The web site is free to students through the end of the year but after that, it will charge a fee.  To sign up, students need this activation code and they also need to put in the instructor's Comcast email address.

Students should use the APA links for help with their citation on the persuasive speech.

In addition, the instructor showed students how to build a personal news page using Google.

Finally, students had questions regarding the Monroe Motivated Sequence. She told students to type their outlines with the category headings from the handout above them.

Next class:

Persuasive speeches
Bring printout of your Google news page showing at least five sections that you have entered

This message was emailed to all students today:

Tonight we may have to do some corrections on the papers, so be sure you have your electronic version with you. Send it by email to yourself, bring it on a USB drive, or save it on the school's computers, but be sure to have that version available. In addition, of course, you should have a hard copy version for me to work with.

1402 Speech Critical

We discussed the format for the last few sessions of the class and this is how it broke down:

Nov 23: library 4:30-6. Go directly to the library. The room will be posted here later.
6-7 p.m. practicing.

Nov 30: Speeches (see table) and evaluation due from practice

Dec 7: Speeches

Dec  14: Rescheduled speeches and final.



Next we put speech topics on the table.

The instructor distributed a four-page handout on the Monroe Motivated sequence. We started on the body of the speech and did several sections in class.

In the last hour of class we broke into small groups. The instructor handed out a list of questions for group discussion. The questions were about the "I Am" journal exercise and how its findings integrated with the personality profile.

To do for next class:

• Read chapter 10 on anxiety (might be another number in other editions)

• Continue speech research and preparation, filling in sections II 2, 3, and B., Main Point 2 through Steps of Plan. In the preceding, do not do sections on statistics unless they are in research you've turned up. We will be having a reference librarian tell us how dig up statistics in our library work session.  Instructor will give points to students who have done this work.

Remember:  meet at the library
