Amy Arbogast: MLA Guide to Presentations and Public Speaking, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A guidebook for learning to speak with confidence

Whether in class presentations, thesis defenses, or even extracurricular activities, students must often confront one of the most common fears: public speaking. Students have questions about how to meet professors' expectations, how to make a good impression on their listeners, and how to manage their nerves.

This guide supports students in preparing and delivering presentations that communicate effectively, offering techniques for focusing and organizing the content of a speech and for engaging audiences through movement and gestures, vocal techniques, and visual aids. Additionally, it gives suggestions for handling stage fright, preparing for the unexpected, and crafting presentations that suit the speaker's personal style.

Not only a companion for the classroom, the guide also helps build skills that can be transferred to professional life and other settings.
