    ENGCMP140 covers speaking and listening skills in the fall 2020 semester. For the next class, students must prepare a 3-minute speech on whether they believe the glass is half empty or half full, without using a script and trying to persuade their audience. The topic relates to optimism versus pessimism and how one's attitude affects their goals, behavior and progress. Students are assigned to write a structured outline for their prepared speech stating their opinion, reasons in short sentences, and to bring it to class on Wednesday.
