Graded speeches: Criteria Remember, you can do more than one in a class.
The graded presentations constitute the majority of your grade for the course. You can do as many graded presentations as you like and I will use the top four grades. When you do practice presentations, I will give you feedback on how to improve your performance. You are expected to do at least one presentation each class, graded or practice. You may do more than one in a class if you like. On some days, a Q&A section will be added to the speech, so be prepared to answer questions in the same style. Please indicate what kind of speech you are doing on the outline (informative, ceremonial, persuasive).
