The Art of Speech

2000
Words apropos make things go! For words to be apropos we must learn persuade others into accepting our views. Speech is an artform that people seldom stop to appreciate or study. It is around us everywhere. On TV, radio, in the classroom, on the stage. The Art of Speech web site offers a robust and dynamic environment for all, with access to the Internet style of learning. The site covers introduction to communication through advanced rhetorical technique. Through analysis of theories and systematic practice, users will have substantial materials to prepare them for authentic speech activities, competitive speech activities and life. Team C001146 has created an interactive classroom environment that teachers may use to set up a class, monitor and control the use of the site and what their students do. Our innovative test and lesson system will change the way oratory is taught within the classroom. The speech library and letter libraries are great tools for learning about opportunities and style. In between your study time, you may like to take a break and play our original game made with Stagecast creator. We have included virtual post cards with a customizable interface to allow you to make notes in the curriculum, which you may refer to later. Or look up the timeline for a summary of the biographies you have read. We hope you have a fun time. Do stop at the debate areas to exchange your views on the interesting Art of Speech with everyone else.
