    A Critique of the Juliette Beck Speech Juliette Beck's speech, "Reclaiming Just and Sustainable Communities in the Age of Corporate Globalization" neither adequately described the problems of globalization as it is currently structured, nor did it provide any answers to the problems with it, either the real problems that actually exist (labor and environmental exploitation) or the problems that Beck purported (large corporations). Primarily, Beck's speech was flawed in that it was incoherent

    someone enters an art gallery, they believe they are going to view art, but under the guise of Institutional Critique, this notion often false. Instead of being the traditional art of painting, sculptures, and installations, viewers encounter, in the work of Hans Haacke, Daniel Buren, and Michael Asher in the 1970s, not much to look at, but a lot to think about. In essence, Institutional Critique is a protest against museums/galleries demanding them to view art and art exhibition in new ways, exemplified

    The speech I chose to critique is Kelley Mc Gonigal: How to make stress your friend (TED TALKS 2013). Her speech contained a persuasive style and encouraged the audience to look at stress in a positive aspect. The main idea of her speech implied that stress only has a negative aspect on your body if you mentally think that all stress is bad. Within seconds of her speech she had the audience captivated by her statement saying “I have a confession to make”. This engaged the audience with the enthusiasm

    Grab Bag Speech, My Path Interview, Career Path Presentation, Rhetorical Analysis Activity, Pitch Speech, Story Podcasts, and two impromptu speeches, I learned a lot of speaking skills and showed a big progress.

    During speech class this semester, I gave several different types of speeches on several different topics. During this semester, my ability to give speeches in front of an audience has improved quite a bit, I hope. Going into the semester, I had a really hard time giving speeches to people, but now that speech is almost over I feel like I am more capable of doing so. I think the thing I did best during the semester was getting good information for each of my speeches. My favorite assignment was most

    Well, in my first self critique, I commented about how I did really good on the preparation stage. I had a solid outline, practiced the speech out loud (excessively), and so on. I think that as a whole, I still feel the same way. I like getting things done in advance and I like feeling prepared for all assignments, regardless of how major they may be. That’s just how I’ve always been, so everything I said in the past is still applicable. Actually, I think I’ve gotten a better grasp for how long speeches

    Mr. Bryan Stevenson speech was very inspiring and enthusiastic which not only made me realize how our justice system is bad and how they are being unfair to some people, but also it made me realize that we are making our world worse place because of these differences in our identities. In the video, I love how he talks about the identity most of the time as he said that too many peoples’ identity is the only thing that is most important to them, nothing else matter to them. His main purpose was to

    Brennen Neeley Persuasive self critique Before I begin the daunting task of bragging on myself with out feeling too self absorbed, while at the same time battling the ruthless criticism i bring upon myself, id like to say how enjoyable and constructive this speech was for me.

This speech, as compared to the preceding, was the hardest for me to find the information i wanted to
