Students will develop a practical and reusable curriculum that equips UTD students with essential presentation skills, focusing on effective delivery, visual design, audience engagement, and Q&A management. The goal of this SWG is leaving a lasting resource for academic and professional success. Aristotle taught that rhetoric, or the art of public speaking, involves the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion (Covino, W. A. and Jolliffe, D. A., 1995). The aim of this project is to develop a curriculum that enables students to develop the persuasive skills required for effective communication.
