Fortunately, they don’t have to experiment with their resume, there are resume consultants that can help them come up with a resume that will surely impress any employer!

Children

By gathering community groups to brainstorm on the steps and measures to understand differences, the Brooklyn Children’s Museum will be putting up an interactive exhibit to trace the history and relationships of the neighborhood’s 3 major racial and ethnic groups. Computers will be used. Children can trace their roots and those of others via the computer. They can input their own racial background and trace the roots of their ancestry. A similar exhibit in understanding racial differences is the “Kids Bridge” at the Boston Children’s Museum. Kids can tune in by watching a video and listening to a Korean or Indian child narrate about an incident where other children hurt his feelings. The video then asks the viewer, “What would you feel if you were in his place?”

They do not

Ethical speakers do not fabricate data or present the ideas or words of others without acknowledging their contributions.
Ethical speakers are aware that words have consequences. Inflammatory language can arouse strong feelings in audience members that sometimes block constructive deliberation. Ethical speakers think through the possible ramifications of their messages before they present them. The greater the possible consequences, the more carefully speakers must assess the potential effects of their messages, support what they say with credible evidence, and temper their conclusions with regard for listener sensitivities.

The speakers for the ethics

August 12th, 2010 @ admin

Ethical speakers base their messages on responsible knowledge of their subject. They assess the accuracy and objectivity of their sources of information, and watch for potential bias. They are sensitive to their own prejudices and try to be accurate and objective in their presentation of information. Ethical speakers try not to pass off opinions and inferences as facts. An ethical speaker will report the sources of factual data and ideas, especially if this information runs counter to what is generally believed.

Ethics

August 12th, 2010 @ admin

Perhaps the most important measure of a speech is whether it is good or bad for you. An ethical speech demonstrates respect for the audience, responsible knowledge, and concern for the consequences of exposure to the message.
Respect for the audience means that speakers are sensitive to the cultural composition of their audience and are aware that well-meaning people often hold varying positions on an issue. Ethical speakers try not to offend others unnecessarily even as they dispute their arguments or question their information.

The speech

August 12th, 2010 @ admin

A good speech is carefully planned so that it carries you through an orderly progression of ideas, making it easy for you to follow. Without a good design, a speech may seem to consist of random ideas that have been thrown together willy-nilly. A worthwhile message can get lost in the confusion. There are three main parts to every message: an introduction, the body of the speech, and a conclusion. The introduction should arouse interest in the topic and preview the message to follow. The body of the speech presents a speaker’s main ideas and the supporting material needed to develop them. The conclusion should summarize the main points, reflect upon the meaning of the message, and provide a sense of closure.

Evaluating Substance

August 14th, 2009 @ admin

A speech has substance when it has a worthwhile message that is supported by facts and figures, testimony, examples, and/or narratives. The starting point for a substantive presentation is a well-chosen topic that interests both speaker and listeners, once they are shown how it affects their lives. Generally, speakers should already know something about the topics they select. This knowledge serves as the foundation for further research that enables them to speak responsibly and authoritatively. While personal experiences are a valuable source of information, speakers should always validate, update, and broaden such experience with research or interviews with knowledgeable people.
Speakers add substance by weaving reliable information into the fabric of their speeches. Facts and figures give precise focus to a speaker’s points. Testimony adds the authority and prestige of others to the speaker’s claims. Such testimony from knowledgeable or respected others can include expert opinions or eloquent quotations. At other times, speakers may rely on lay testimony from ordinary people with whom listeners might identify. For example, the opinions of other students might be meaningful on issues that pertain to campus life. Examples can help you understand better what speakers are talking about. Narratives can engage the audience by telling some colorful story that illustrates the speaker’s message.
Skillful speakers often combine different types of supporting material to make their points more accessible to listeners. Combining statistical data with an example can make ideas more clear and compelling. For instance, a speaker might say, “The base of the Great Pyramid at Giza measures 756 feet on each side.” While precise, this may be difficult for you to visualize. But what if the speaker adds, “More than eleven football fields could fit in its base.” Aha! This example gives you a concrete point of reference by comparing the unfamiliar or hard to understand with something you can relate to.
