I ALSO ASK THAT YOU COMMENT ON A CLASS- MATE'S DISCUSSION PIECE: You can agree or disagree with something he or she said.. you can draw a connection.. you can simply add to their insight / analysis.. You can respond to a class - mate by BY HITTING THE REPLY BUTTON after their comment.
THIS IS NOT A FORMAL WRITING PUBLISHED PIECE.. HOWEVER, THIS IS AN ASSIGNMENT AND A SCHOLARLY DISCUSSION..A DISCUSSION COUNTS AS PARTICIPATION.. PARTICIPATION IS WORTH 15 PERCENT OF YOUR GRADE.. MAKE IT HAPPEN!
TASK : Actively Watch "Body Language" by Amy Cuddy This means take MANY NOTES in your notebook as you watch/listen to her talk! Think about the evaluation questions and prepare to respond in Published Writing Format!
Evaluate: How would you evaluate Cuddy as a speaker? Examine at least three skills (skills you learned in this class) she implements in her presentation. Discuss how these particular skills enhance her speech.
Choose ONE main argument Cuddy makes in her speech. "Body Language" and discuss it. Why is it so important? Explain it's significance ? How does it govern how we think and feel about others? how do they govern how we feel about ourselves?
Analysis: What have you learned from examining this speech? Power, Possibility, Confidence? Body Mind Connection?
Compare a main point (separate from the one you made before) Cuddy makes about social interactions and judgments to that of a real life example. In this case I would like you to evaluate non verbals in the world. Provide an example from Cuddy and then connect it to an example from the outside world! For Example; something you learned about , read about or previously experienced.
