== Learning Objectives == The course objectives are deceptively simple: by the end of this quarter, you should be able to compose and deliver a clear, convincing, and compelling speech on a public issue. In service of this goal, we will study the principles of argumentation and arrangement, critically examine our own speeches and the speeches of others, and practice, practice, practice. By becoming a student of public speaking, you join a long history of rhetorical study dating back to ancient Greece. At the end of COM 220, students should be able to: # Organize ideas in a manner that lends itself to the verbal medium. # Present in front of an audience of greater than 20 people. # Differentiate prepared and unscripted speeches. # Provide valuable feedback via peer critique. # Understand what a venue looks for in a professional speaker. This course advances the mission of the Department of Communication to nurture socially responsible, literate citizens who can interpret and evaluate the images and messages they create and receive.
