How do you plan to improve?

Please write a paragraph or two describing the different strategies you plan to implement in order to improve some of your speaking weaknesses.

Goal Setting

If you had to make a list of areas that you needed to improve on in terms of public speaking, what would they be? This does not mean that you should list "good practices" rather, make a list of what you as an individual have trouble with.

Next, describe how you plan to fix these different areas.

Good Speech Practices

What are the characteristics of good or successful speeches? Persuasive speeches? List 5-10. Now, did you follow those practices and characteristics? What did you do well, and what did you do poorly? Would you have been successful in a courtroom?

Constitutional Rights Foundation

So, you have had some time to look over the CRF website. What exactly is Mock Trial? What do you think you'll need to know/do to prepare yourselves? What do you hope to take away from this class?
