COMM 2010
Oral Communication

Course information provided by the 2018-2019 Catalog.

The course focuses on face-to-face, public communication, but the principles and practices addressed transfer to all purposeful communication situations. While many assume a good speech rests in how well it is delivered, students will learn that a good speech is equally dependent on the development, structure, and integrity of one's ideas. The objectives of the course are for students to speak effectively and ethically, and listen critically.


Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: fluency in spoken English.

Permission Note Enrollment limited to: 30 students per class (fall and spring) or 15 students per class (summer). Priority given to communication majors and minors, CALS seniors, CALS juniors.

Outcomes

  • Students will be able to research, evaluate, and develop ideas about current events.
  • Students will be able to analyze communication contexts and adapt their speech to the contexts through a variety of communication strategies.
  • Students will be able to apply the principles of effective and ethical speaking in formal presentations.
  • Students will be able to apply the principles of effective and ethical speaking in ongoing informal discussions of contemporary controversies.
  • Students will be able to listen to others critically, evaluating the effectiveness, truthfulness, and ethics of their words.
