Problem
Consider what you're working to prepare for your presentation. Remember, preparation and practice help to alleviate anxiety and pave the way to success. So, why is it important to set aside time to organize and outline your speech? Select one option below and thoroughly explain how an outline will provide this benefit. Increase audience engagement. Decrease speech anxiety. Assist with meeting time and requirements. Typically a substantial post consists of 5-7 sentences, and a peer response with 2-4 complete sentences. A substantial discussion forum response should make connections to course content, professional experiences, and personal experiences. In response to a peer, you may want to share tips for how you plan to prepare and minimize speaking anxiety. Optional: Continue to hone your oral communication skills by submitting your discussion response as a 1-2 minute video or audio recording. Should you choose this option, you will be graded on your responses just as you would if you responded via text only. You will not be graded on your audio or video performance.
