| Description: This course aims to help students develop their understanding of public speaking and improve their delivery skills in Spanish in a variety of contexts. A special emphasis will be placed on the concept and practice of ethical communication. Coursework will include planning, presenting, and analyzing oral and written speeches, as well as critical evaluations of famous figures' speeches in Spanish and their particular audience in socio-historical contexts. Assignments will substantially focus on different aspects of the planning process -- such as content research, organization, writing, and the use of visual aids, among others--to create a well-informed, flexible, audience-oriented speech. |
