| 授業の題目 | Public Speaking and Presentation |
| 学修の概要 | This is a performance-based course that focuses on public speaking and presentation skills. Students will learn the content, organization, and delivery behind three speeches: self-introduction, persuasive, and reflection. They will also learn how to use visual aids, where appropriate, to enhance the overall effectiveness of their presentations. Besides public speaking and presentation skills, there is also an emphasis on engaging the audience through follow-up questions and summarizing what others have said. |
| 学修の到達目標 | By the end of this course, students will be able to: 1. Plan and organize speeches using a clear structure (opening–body–closing) and logical sequencing. 2. Deliver speeches confidently using appropriate voice projection, pace, intonation, and clear pronunciation. 3. Use effective non-verbal communication, including eye contact, posture, gestures, and audience awareness. 4. Create and use presentation slides (e.g., PowerPoint) that support the message clearly and professionally. 5. Give and apply feedback by using a checklist/rubric to evaluate presentations and revise their own work for improvement. 6. Respond to questions and communicate ideas interactively in a live speaking setting. |
