Principles of Public Speaking
The Principles of Public Speaking Comprehensive Learning Module covers concepts typically found in a one-semester speech course. The Comprehensive Learning Module prepares learners to challenge a two-part examination. Part one consists of multiple-choice questions. Part two requires a four-minute persuasive speech. Topics discussed in the Comprehensive Learning Module include ethical, historical, and social considerations in public speaking; audience analysis; topics, purpose, structure, organization, content, and supporting materials of speeches; research; language and style; delivery; communication apprehension; listening and feedback; and criticism and evaluation. Each chapter contains study questions, and a complete, multiple-choice practice examination to test comprehension is located at the end of the guide.
