Come to your appointment with specific questions or concerns so that we can get right to work. Please provide the OCC consultants with a copy of the assignment you are working on. Your instructors have specific requirements we need to be aware to provide the best advice.
Instructors: You can use the Center for your class presentations. The Center's director is willing
to help with the assessment of your students' presentations!
We can allow you to practice your thesis proposal and debate by asking follow-up questions
after the presentation. We can also make suggestions about parts of the presentation
that may not be clear to an audience. We can also make sure that the proposal is organized
and structured in a way that makes the most sense to the audience.
We can help you organize your speech or presentation. We can also help you practice
in a classroom setting in front of an audience. This practice can help alleviate some
fear of speaking in front of a group. We can also supply other tactics to help alleviate
speaking fears. We can also help you prepare for class discussions to make you feel
more comfortable during normal class participation. With more speaking practice, you
can feel more comfortable speaking and increase class participation scores.
