Listening and Your First Speech

Use what you’ve learned this week to respond to the following:

  • Complete the Listening Self-Evaluation in The Art of Public Speaking, Ch. 3 pg. 54. Discuss why you were or weren’t surprised by the results. Identify three habits that you want to work on and share your plan for how to improve them. 
  • Find quality, credible advice to help you give your first recorded speech. (Make sure it is a different resource than one found by a classmate.) Provide a link to the resource and briefly summarize the advice. How do you plan to use this advice in your first speech?
