Composing Speeches: A Public Speaking Textbook for the Digital Age

By Jared Kubicka-Miller

Composing arguments blends classic and contemporary rhetorical theory with today's technology to create a unique experience for the public speaking course. Students are faced with unique expectations that prior generations never had to face. The greater reliance technology means that people are more likely than ever going to face a circumstance where they need to give a streaming video presentation. Topics like lighting, framing, background, and audio control, which were never part of the traditional public speaking course, are now all but a requirement. Simultaneously, well-established public speaking lessons like gestures, posture, organization, research, and vocalics are just as relevant as ever. All of these topics, and more, are woven together with the metaphor of speech and music.
