Speech assignment 2 | Social Science homework help

Part I: Listening Analysis First read the Week 2 lecture on listening and do the listening exercises to evaluate your listening skills. Then, use that information to describe an instance when you failed to be an effective listener.

Next, respond to the following prompts. As you compose your responses, you should make connections to the ideas contained in the listening chapter assigned for the week.

• Where in the stages of listening did you experience breakdown?
• What was the reason you failed to listen effectively?
• What could you have done differently to improve your listening?

This part of the assignment should be written with at least four paragraphs (with a minimum of three to four sentences each) of commentary, which is in addition to any quoting from the exercise itself you may choose to do. It may be helpful to explain your thought process and provide examples to give explanation to your descriptions of why you feel that way. This is not a formal paper, but college-level spelling, grammar, and syntax are expected.

Probably 1 page maybe 1.5 pages. For part 1.

The Lecture is attached Below.

Part II: Small Group and Public Speaking Strategies Later in this course, you will read chapters that address skills in both small group communication and public speaking. This assignment is intended to get you thinking about those skills before that information is covered in class, so know that you are not expected to have fully researched responses for this part of the Week 2 assignment.

Using the Communication Improvement Strategy Table from the Week 1 Lecture, develop an improvement strategy that follows it according to the following assessments:

• the checklist describing the skills covering small-group communication in Chapter 9 on page 189; and
• the Test Yourself inventory on public-speaking apprehension in Chapter 11 on page 209 OR the checklist describing the steps in preparing a speech on page 234.

You may choose to format these into tables or write them in paragraph form. With whichever option, you should have clear labels for the four main areas: problem, goal, plan, and test of measurability.

The Table and checklists are attached. Below.
