SPC 140 - Oral Interpretation


3 credits
Oral Interpretation is a perfect fit for anyone who wants to improve confidence in public speaking, as well as those going into fields which require performance presentations - broadcasting, teaching, acting, advertising, coaching, public relations, etc. Oral Interpretation provides experience in the vocal performance of children’s literature, poetry, prose, and drama - for the purpose of making such forms come alive for a listening audience. The class begins with attention on vocal techniques and daily group exercises in preparation for solo work later in the semester. This course helps students build confidence in their communication skills while also enabling them to think critically, consider the viewpoints of others, and effectively express themselves, all of which will benefit them in the classroom, in life, and in the workforce. Oral Interpretation also includes a literary analysis component which ties authors’ intentions to the choice’s performers make in presenting the student-selected materials.
