This course teaches the oral communication skills students need in order to accomplish their college and career goals. All students address the class in talks designed to inform, persuade, and instruct. They also explore interviewing strategies; giving and using feedback; group discussion rules and roles, and the impact of culture, gender, and politics on communication. Students submit weekly logs chronicling their responses to readings and films as well as their own selected speaking/listening experience.
