One of the overarching goals of COMM107 is to provide the skills and knowledge necessary to engage in
presentational speaking situations that you will encounter in your academic, professional, personal, and civic
lives.
Drawing on the course, this final exam asks you to prepare and deliver a creative individual presentation that
allows you to practice giving “everyday” presentations (e.g., wedding toasts, speeches of introductions,
acceptance speeches; see pp. 388-402). Specific assignment details will be discussed in class. Special
occasion presentations are most effective when they are relatively brief, heartfelt, entertaining, and well-suited
to the audience
