Important Information About This Class:

This is a late start class beginning on 1/30. Mandatory Zoom meetings will take place on the days and times listed with remaining content delivered asynchronously. Students should have reliable internet access and a functioning webcam that has both video and audio capabilities and is compatible with Zoom video conferencing and GoReact video recording. Students will participate in five mandatory Zoom meetings to give and listen to speeches. The rest of the coursework will be completed online. The five in-class meetings will be held on the following Thursdays: 2/1, 2/8, 2/29, 4/4, 4/18. Given that the development of nonverbal skills is central to the Communication discipline, students are expected to have their webcams on when engaged in synchronous online instruction.
