Instructions
This project includes three parts. Be sure to pay close attention to the directions in each part as they build upon each other.
Part 1: Write and record a 2-minute speech on any business topic that is important or of interest to you. It does not have to be on a topic from this course, but it must be a persuasive speech.
Part 2: Write a two-page paper in which you reflect on and critique your experience in preparing, delivering, and evaluating the speech. Your paper should address the following:
- What did you find difficult and/or easy about preparing your speech? What apprehension did you have (e.g. selecting a topic, preparation, delivery) and how did you overcome it?
- What concepts or strategies from this course helped guide your presentation development efforts?
- Share pertinent responses to the evaluation questions from both you and your audience. What areas did your self-feedback differ from that of your evaluators? Why do you think there was a difference?
- Connect the feedback to concepts presented in this unit regarding giving presentations as you explain your areas of strength and areas needing improvement.
- Conclude the strategies you can employ to improve your presentation skills.
