In these four sections are 30 chapters that cover all the basics of public speaking, from the vocabulary of speech and debate to how to develop listening skills. Included in the book are learning games, information about group dynamics, visual aids, nonverbal communication exercises, readers theatre, and choral reading. Section Three teaches students about competitive speaking events such as original oratory, extemporaneous speaking, policy debate, and Lincoln-Douglas debate and includes activities for preparation. Two appendices add value to this comprehensive, student-friendly guide to public speaking.
