SPCH 1113 Principles of Speech
This course discusses the theory of and offers practical applications for public speaking emphasizing both giving and listening to speeches while building the skills of speech delivery. Students research topics, develop, and deliver narrative, special occasion, informative and persuasive speeches as well as work collaboratively to critique speech outlines. By modeling effective public communication, students learn to communicate effectively as they develop their own successful communication strategies. On campus students give their speeches in the classroom in front of their classmates. Students taking the course online must recruit an audience of at least eight people, record their speeches in front of their live audience, and submit the recording in the online course OR make arrangements with the course instructor to come on campus and deliver speeches.
