Public Speaking (Summer 2019)/Knowledgeable Topics

Speaking on topics that are important to students often results in better speeches. You will submit 3 topics which you have background knowledge about and find important. I will review these and let you know which might be more or less difficult to use throughout the quarter.

Note: You are not tied to these topics, but it will be easier if you can use a consistent theme over the course of the quarter.

Requirements

Your three knowledgeable topics must:

• be familiar enough that you could be involved in a 5 minute conversation about the topic
• include a brief explanation of your background with each topic
• and include at least one exciting fact about the topic

Submission

In the box on Canvas, please list your three knowledgeable topics.

Sample (don't use these as your submission)

topic

Linux

background

I have been an avid user/advocate of this operating system for over 20 years

fact

Linux can make a 10 year old compute run at modern day speeds
