OE 2 Spring 2013: Lesson 7

Hi everyone,

We're half way through our course!  

Gestures:
In today's lesson, we learned about gestures.  Gestures help support our verbal message and also keep the listener interested in our message.  There are four types of gestures you can use:
1.  number / sequence
2.  emphasis / focus
3.  location / illustration
4.  compare / contrast

Presentations
In next week's lesson, we're going to start preparing for our presentations.  In this lesson, you will be assigned a group and your group will choose your topic.  We will also learn about presentation structure.

If you miss this class, you will be responsible to get the information from your group about the lesson in the following lesson.  

Homework:
1.  Discussion Preparation
2.  Blog Post #7

Blog Question #7:
