Ignacio CO#2

Date/Time: Thursday, May 9th, 2019

Topic/Skill: Speaking



Teacher: Olivia James

I found this class very interesting because the professor was promoting very rhetoric based activities. What I understood from the professor was that students needed to prepare for a sort of public audience speech. In preparation for this, the professor presented a TED talk about a very impassioned individual in LA. When the talk was over she asked the students to break down the reasoning behind his passion and apply it to their own speech. That is, not focus on the ted talker's message but the passion he had. 

This class reminded me of my own experiences in public speaking classes and experiences. Hopefully, I can attend another one of the instructor's classes soon.
