Learning how to communicate effectively and appropriately, both verbally and non-verbally, is a skill for life in and beyond the classroom. Students use a multitude of mediums in their daily communications – speaking, listening, composing papers, presentations, emails, or texts, and using social networking/media. In this course, we will learn how to organize and deliver information in a meaningful manner across many of these mediums. Through project-based activities, students will gain skills to communicate effectively, whether in a formal paper, speech, presentation, or online (including eye contact, body language, intonation, pitch, sound level, speed, and use of visual aids). This course also includes the fundamentals of argumentation, giving students the opportunity to learn the basics of debate strategy with the director of O’Dowd’s debate team. Students will finish the course knowing the difference between winning an argument and winning an audience, and much more!
