This course is designed to develop communication skills, especially in the preparation and delivery of spoken messages. Emphasis will be placed on the creation of original material for delivery, writing for the ear instead of for the eye. Questions about voice, gesture, non-verbal communication, and speech anxiety will be considered. The course will use video tape recording.
Enrollment is limited to ten students.
Oral presentation is important in the communication of the gospel. The class will meet once a week for two-hour sessions. There will be opportunity for individual conferences with the instructor outside of regular class time to evaluate the video tapes. A Handbook for Christians . Baker Books, 1992.
