Program: Anchoring Public Speaking and Debating Skills in High School
We live in a world of human beings. Most of the obstacles we must overcome
are shaped not by the laws of nature, but by the deeds of others. Most of
our desires require interaction with others to be fulfilled. Therefore our
measure of success is, to a large extent, a product of our communication and
social skills. In order to achieve our full potential we must maximize these
skills.
The aim of this course for teachers is to study verbal communication, to
improve these skills for themselves and to provide teachers with the tools
to facilitate the development of these skills in their students. The course
employs a unique system of learning and emphasizing active participation
instead of lectures. This means that all participants in the course will
receive practical experience in the field of public speaking, debating and
rhetoric. Furthermore, you will be able to implement many of the activities
and to foster the skills acquired in your own classrooms.
The theory and the exercises in the course improve the following skills and
abilities, among others:
- Interpersonal communication
- Organizational skills
- Analytical thinking skills
- Boosting self-confidence
- Listening skills - Pluralism and tolerance of different
ideas.
