=== Get off the card === I am often struck by how much students want to rely on their notecards. You only spent 6 minutes with it out in the hallway; it only has a few words on it; why do you spend 75% of your time looking at that blank sheet? I know it feels safer to look at this card, but it generally leads to a poorer speech. You have had six minutes to gather your thoughts, now simply explain your argument to the audience. Remember, the goal here is to communicate your thoughts to the audience, not to simply stand and speak in front of us.
