L.EXP 152 - DuSTEM Seminar II

Credits: 1

Effective oral communication is viewed as an essential life skill that every person must possess in order to function in contemporary society. This experiential course engages literary analysis and communication for oral interpretive performance, and aims to balance the development of both analytic and performance skills. The course endeavors to develop, reinforce and evaluate communication for public settings, with a view of public communication as a form of performance (not conversation), and narrative as the most resonant form of public communication. The course content and experiences will enable students to assume their responsibilities as message interpreters/creators, senders, receivers and evaluators. Hence, the course is designed to make students competent, critical, confident, literate and highly engaging communicators.
