This course is designed to develop and improve students’ presentation skills. Students will be exposed to and practice a variety of presentation styles including persuasive (argumentative), informative and explanative/instructive. Presentation delivery including body language, eye contact and voicing will be highlighted and the structure of an effective presentation, including the use of effective visuals aids, will be emphasized. The course will also expose students to the art of debating and how to facilitate and participate in group discussions to become an effective group leader/member. Students will be required to give critical feedback to their peers and to evidence adherence to feedback in subsequent presentations. Although the focus of the course is on oral communication, there will be some research required in order to provide a realistic level of content in the presentations and discussion/debate.
