Outline and objectives

This course is designed primarily to improve students’ presentation skills and thereby to develop their integrative English language proficiency. In spring the goal is to acquire basic presentations skills, including how to organize a presentation, supporting arguments with evidence, effective use of visual aids, and aspects of delivery such as eye contact or gesture. In the fall semester, students will focus on persuasive/argumentative presentations on topics of contemporary concern. Students base their presentations on the basic patterns taught and learn to speak from notes. The class is conducted in English.

Goal

The goal of this course is to enable students to make effective presentations on a variety of topics. Students will learn to confidently deliver multimedia informative/descriptive speeches, as well as comparative, demonstrative and argumentative/persuasive presentations. Students will also learn to evaluate the quality and content of others' presentations, to take notes on presentation content, and to provide detailed feedback to help presenters to improve their presentation technique.
