Part I: Collaboration Assignment Contributions? This assignment will be completed using a collaborative set of Google slides (the link to the slides is below)

There are two parts to this assignment, each with a different due date. Part I is your contributions to the collaborative Google Slides document. Part II is the reflection writing you will submit.

Part I: Collaboration Assignment Contributions 

This assignment will be completed using a collaborative set of Google slides (the link to the slides is below). Although you are adding to the same set of slides, you are working individually on the assignment when it is convenient for you to do so. This is not a group assignment, but rather a collective effort to compile resources that can help you throughout the semester. 

As noted above, you and your classmates will be using a shared Google Slides document to create a repository of helpful resources for you all to reference throughout the semester. 

1. Research Phase 1: Start by doing some web-based research on best practices for preparing for and presenting speeches. This can include tips on how to manage time, ways to address procrastination, how often to practice, ways to practice, etc. You can choose strategies, advice, and best practices that you feel are beneficial to your own process for preparing and presenting speeches. 

2. Research Phase 2: Consider what effect, if any, speaking in public has on you personally. This includes both physical (e.g., shaky voice, red face, pacing, poor eye contact) to emotional (e.g., negative self-talk, self-sabotage, avoidance). Conduct a web-based search to find tips and techniques to help mitigate these physical and/or emotional side effects. 

3. Google Slide Contribution: Using however many slides you deem appropriate and in whatever format and font you think is best, add the following information to the Class Collaboration Google Slides Document

• Provide a minimum of (3) overall best practices with some detail about each
  • Cite the websites you retrieved this information from using the APA format at the bottom of the slide it appears.
• List a minimum of (3) side effects (emotional or physical) you experience either during or at the thought of speaking in public. For each of the (3) emotional and/or physical side effects you list, include at least (2) remedies, strategies, and/or best practices to reduce the impact each effect has on you or your speech. 
  • Cite the websites you retrieved this information from using the APA format at the bottom of the slide it appears.
• You must cite a total of (3) websites for this assignment. While three is the minimum, I encourage the use and citation of additional websites. 
• Place your first and last name on each of your slides.
• Do not edit or delete others' slides. 
• Try to limit replicating / duplicating advice provided by others.
