Communication - Thursday, Period 5

"As I told you last week, this week's class is about public speaking. Public speaking is an important part of communication in that it trains you to organise your thoughts effectively and allows you practice at speaking in front of people you otherwise wouldn't be comfortable with.

If you haven't prepared your speech and can't get it done by the time it's your turn to speak, then this week you'll be getting a lesson in improvisation. If you have a serious problem with this assignment, I'll be at the back of the room. Feel free to come and speak with me."

Rodney had prepared a lecture speech on the nature of black holes. He even had a Power Point presentation to go with it. It was probably incomprehensible to most of the class and it would have been quite boring if not for the fact that Rodney tended to talk with his hands.
