Running Head: Public Speaking Class 1
Public Speaking Class 3
Each of the two chapters offers very important information. This information shall be summarized into the five most important items derived from each of the chapters as is done below:
Chapter Three: The Importance of Listening
· When we hear, we choose to filter out the sounds that we are of less meaning to us and pay attention to the more meaningful sounds.
· When we listen, we are motivated by a purpose to exert effort to pay attention to something, such as when working, something which we do only at given times.
· For a person to listen critically, an activity which goes hand in hand with critical thinking, he/she engages in a systematic thought process to determine whether the message received is sensible enough.
· Some of the main ways for developing critical listening are uncovering assumptions, recognizing the differences between facts and opinions, relating new ideas to old ones, being open to new ideas and relying on reason and common sense (Wrench, Goding, Johnson, & Attias, The Importance of Listening, 2011).
· To listen ethically entails giving the speaker a fair opportunity to speak make himself clearly understood, and being mindful and respectful of him as well.
Chapter Four: Ethics Matter: Understanding the Ethics of Public Speaking
· Based on the ethics pyramid, the three basic concepts of ethics in public speaking are ends (what a person hopes to achieve), means (how a person intends to achieve the outcome he desires) and intention.
· For ethics to be exercised efficiently in public speaking, the speaker should be able to strike a balance between these three basic concepts.
· Nine principles of ethical communication basically define the moral considerations that are to be made when engaging in communication under public speaking.
· What each of these principles have in common is that they acknowledge that while it is necessary for public speakers to speak up/communicate whenever they feel it is necessary, they should do so while considering the impact of their communication to others.
· Free speech, which is the right that one has to freely express ideas or information without having to worry about government restrictions or any other limitations as guaranteed by the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution is of importance to a public speaker since public speaking generally entails the passage of information and ideas to the public allowing them to consider multiple points of view (Wrench, Goding, Johnson, & Attias, Ethics Matters: Understanding the Ethics of Public Speaking, 2011).

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?
Most modern speech therapies have flaws,
and no single technique works for everyone
suffering from disfluency.
Can design thinking possibly form the foundation
for a new method of therapy?
Tuesday, July 19, 2011
3. HYPOTHESIS
This thesis presents the hypothesis that design methodology may offer a
partial solution to overarching flaws in modern day speech therapies.
In contrast to current stuttering approaches, which often set unrealistic
expectations of perfection or focus on only one area for improvement, design
thinking examines a problem from all sides and promotes experimentation.
A concept like the “T-shaped Designer”, emphasizing strong skill set in
conjunction with larger knowledge base, could offer a robust approach
currently not being utilized in the speech therapy field.
Such research and comparison could bring interdisciplinary insight into
understanding and circumventing the limited verbal communication of
stutterers.

4. FLAW / DESIGN COMPARISONS
FLAW Expectation of perfection.
DESIGN Mistakes are aesthetically desirable.
FLAW Narrow treatment focus.
DESIGN Look at all aspects of a problem (context, history, environment)
to achieve a successful solution.
FLAW No streamlining/filtering of spoken content.
DESIGN Simplify a larger message to its focused essence.
FLAW Many “one-size-fits-all” approaches.
DESIGN Every problem needs a unique approach.
FLAW Limitations will never allow “normal” communication.
DESIGN Limitations force us to be creative and explore different
techniques to communicate effectively.

5. INTERDISCIPLINARY INNOVATION
ADRIAN HILL
ARTIST, ART THERAPIST, EDUCATOR (1895-1977)
Discovered the therapeutic benefits of drawing and
painting while recovering from tuberculosis
Coined the term ‘art therapy’
Said the value of art therapy lay in ‘completely
engrossing the mind (as well as the fingers)
Suggested artistic work to his fellow inpatients, who were
documented in 1945 in a book, under the title, “Art
Versus Illness”

7. CONTINUOUS EXPERIMENTATION
MALCOLM FRASER
PHILANTHROPIST, BUSINESSMAN, STUTTERER (1903 - 1994)
Founded the Stuttering Foundation of America using
$10 million of his own money
Authored “Self-Therapy for the Stutterer”, providing
guidance for stutterers to help themselves without
conventional therapy.

9. VALORIZED DESIGNER #1
“The valorized designer should see design for its major potential contribution
to making the quality of life richer and more sustainable.”
My thesis has the potential to alter in the lives of many stutterers, including
myself. The final output may be a new and unique addition to the fields of
design AND speech therapy.
Tuesday, July 19, 2011
10. VALORIZED DESIGNER #2
“It is important that (designers) see how the ideas they are studying are
changing: where the ideas have come from, how they have changed, and how
they may develop.”
By studying historical and contemporary design methodologies and speech
therapies, I can arrive at a well-informed solution for my thesis.
Tuesday, July 19, 2011
11. VALORIZED DESIGNER #3
“The valorized designer will be able to evaluate design as an integral and
integrated part of a particular society.”
My thesis may potentially show how design thinking can aid a very large
group of people afflicted with a severe limitation. This places design in
direct relation to a stuttering community that may not yet be aware of
design’s potential to add significantly to their conversation.
