Teach a Speech Calendar
From the Syllabus:
Teach a Speech – 10%
Once during the semester you will teach the class about a topic in rhetoric and public address. These will focus on a speaker, movement, or other issue pertinent to the class. You will select a reading from the available list, write a two to three page abstract of the article, produce a handout for your classmates, and explain both the reading and how it relates to the other assigned materials for that topic. You will need to make an appointment with me a week before your presentation to review your materials and notes (i.e., bring a rough draft of the abstract, handout, and speaking notes). See the “Class Schedule” for the readings/dates available.
