概要

講義概要

This course is designed to give students an understanding of the vocal and physical skills involved in delivering a successful presentation. Students will develop techniques to handle performance anxiety, give themselves authority, a confident posture and expressive voice. Focus will be on clear and dynamic direct address. Skills learnt will assist students to adapt to a range of communication contexts.

講義の目的

To provide students with the tools to successfully unlock physical and vocal tensions that interfere with good delivery. To encourage students to develop an awareness of personal communication styles and identify strengths and weaknesses. To provide a learning atmosphere that allows the students the freedom to explore chosen subject matter creatively with empathy, imagination and a sense of fun. To direct students to structure their presentations clearly for optimum communication of desired message and to maintain a balance between direct address and visual aids. To give the students the confidence to apply their skills in formal and informal situations.
