Public Speaking
And how it applies to the college courses that I teach and my own doctoral dissertation
Flashback *Feline* Friday: My grad cat keeps me company through this cube at my desk! {Fun fotos taken when we lived in Cali then when I taught in the Valley}
Don’t y’all always like my alliteration?
Flashback *Feline* Friday: Here are the other dimensions of my grad cat at my desk! {More Bay & el Valle}
| Type of Presentation | Description | Dissertation |
| Informative Speech | Sharing facts based on research | Concept Proposal as Information Session for my Committee |
| Persuasive Speech | Supporting opinions with research | Proposal Defense to convince Committee; IRB request |
| Interview | Asking and answering questions ~ which also involves the powers of persuasion | Committee, Faculty and Public Defense ~ all for which I’m preparing to get into defense shape (also involved when I initially applied to my doctoral program, my final and comprehensive exams) |
| Special Occasion Speech | Celebrating an event | Acknowledging my support system after successful full Defense ~ when I shoot to become Doctor |
With cat art as all the rage lately, I’ve been trendsetting since before then at my work zone! + #FrogFetish#Keroppi
PS also is for … Pet Smart ~ where I go for my catsentials!
Don’t cat photos always make anything better? This from my sweaty swigs, ya dig?
A&A *Highlights* this Week:
- Big Asia actually being my bed buddy from sleeping to waking up for the 1st time in 9 years (she usually sleeps at my feet or elsewhere)!
- Vocal Annie playing copy cat with me by imitating (the greatest form of flattery) the pitch of my voice ~ another element that I teach in speech!
Therefore, Lil’ Ann‘s the mockingcat!
