Learn to speak in public without breaking a sweat! The Public Speaking Playbook coaches students to prepare, practice, and present their public speeches to their highest level. With a focus on actively building skills, Authors Teri Kwal Gamble and Michael W. Gamble train students in the fundamentals of the public speaking process using frequent interactive exercises that allow students to practice--and improve--their public speaking. Students want to put their skills into practice quickly, so the Playbook gives them the essentials in brief learning modules that focus on skill-building through independent and collaborative learning activities. As students master their skills, they are also encouraged to think critically about what it means to -play fair- in your public speaking--with a focus on diversity, ethics, and civic engagement.
