Great job energizing your communications in class yesterday by staying in action for 30 seconds. Adding action into our reports keeps people interested and makes you more engaging as a speaker while helping release any nervous energy you may have.
In session 7 you will be reporting on how you were able to gain the willing cooperation of others by utilizing the principles on page 4.26 and 4.27. Take the time to read through each principle and decide who in your life you would be able to gain the cooperation of by using the principles you select. What is the benefit of gaining the cooperation of people? What are some situations you may need to do so? Leave your comments here!
Thursday, you will each be delivering a one-minute report about a deep conviction that you hold about a subject that you have strong feelings about. Page 5.12 in your manual gives the description or the report and the planning sheet is on 5.13.
The topic you choose should be one that you are willing to stand up for and be counted. At the end, you should supply the class with an action and benefit that you recommend they take as a result of your report. Remember, this is not a rant about something you "hate" or "can't stand" but rather something you hold very deep feelings about.
Your report for next Tuesday is about making your ideas clear. You will be giving a "how to" talk on the topic of your choice. It could be how to serve a volleyball, how to change a flat tire or how to throw a football.
Use the LIONS formula to communicate your report:
use Language that is easily understood
bring Illustrations or exhibits to assist you in your report
make sure you Organize your thoughts so your report is clear and easy to follow
make sure you Narrow your subject to key points- be specific!
at the end Summarize your report, making sure not to add any new information
The report is on 6.4, with the planning sheet on 6.5.
