C323 introduces you to the principles and techniques of
speechwriting, the art of writing speeches for delivery by a
client.  In three assignments working as a member of a speechwriting
team, you will improve your skills in remediation, education, and
motivation.  Each member of the team composes a speech for a C323
student who will be acting as a client.  Then the entire team
composes a final draft in consultation with the client.  As a client
yourself, you will inspect the speech text written for you, deliver
it in class, and evaluate your speechwriting team in a memorandum to
the instructor.  In a fourth assignment working as an individual
speechwriter, you will compose a speech for an outside client.
Ultimately, in this final assignment, you will write a speech for
delivery by a student in Z402, a senior-level management course in
the Kelley School of Business.  Several in-class revision exercises
are also assigned during the semester.
