Intros complete, now let's think about topics for our next assignment

I really enjoyed getting to know you all a bit more through our first speeches. Congratulations on presenting in public and working in small groups with new people and new technology. Those are big challenges and I hope you are pleased with your work.

For Tuesday's class, read Chapter 5 in the textbook and watch the video below. Here's a link to use if the video isn't showing below.

Our next assignment will be to present an informative speech about a building, statue, historic marker or event, or place here at EKU. I'd like you to start looking around campus and see what you might be interested in. It could be a ghost story or the story behind a statue here on campus.

We'll talk about the assignment more at class on Tuesday, but I want you to begin thinking about something you may be interested in. You can post questions on our Facebook group if you want, but remember, I'll be out of pocket for much of the weekend.

If you have a topic in mind, post it on Facebook. I only want one person to do one topic. First come, first served.

As you watch this video of Eva, consider how she comes up with research topics.



Have a safe weekend. See you Tuesday.
