Academic Roundtable - When The Oratory Light Is On: How Attention to Speaking Can Help Us Teach

Yes, it’s a college-wide learning goal, an FYS learning goal, and we know it’s a critically important skill, but honestly who can afford the precious class-time it takes to teach oral expression? Colleagues Shawna Shapiro (Writing and Linguistics Programs) and Sarah Stroup (Political Science) will join Oratory Now Director Dana Yeaton (Theater) in a demonstration and discussion of the many ways, large and small, we can use speaking to deepen, broaden, and in some cases even expedite, what we already do.

Background Materials available at go/roundtable

Lunch will be provided. Please RSVP for lunch by 4 pm on Friday, April 7, 2017.
