Chapter 13: Public Speaking & Presentations
Consider the following questions. Your instructor may ask you to freewrite about one of these questions in your learning journal.
- Think back to the most impactful speaker you’ve ever encountered? What made that person impactful? How did they deliver the message?
- What emotions come up when you think about giving an oral presentation? Why do you feel that way?
- How do you use storytelling in your daily life? Do you consider yourself an effective storyteller?
- If you have experience with a different language or culture, what similarities and differences do you notice in storytelling across cultures?
