Research: Bottle Forms

I have uploded an example in the file section

Investigate different image resources and locate 10 different bottle forms that you find interesting. Copy and paste the image into a digital document, and record your observations concerning each of the 10 bottles’ form, surface (textures, patterns, lines, design), and color.

Exploring these vessels will aid in your design process for an original ceramic bottle that you will produce for the Coil Project. Think about the bottles that interest you, and utilize those characteristics to design your own bottle form.

Please upload your document to this assignment.

forum post 250 + words on someone you think is a very talented speaker. Reply to both posts attached 100+ words each

/in /by

Part 1

You have almost certainly seen someone who was a very talented speaker as well as someone with very limited capabilities. Perhaps it was a boss or someone in a social organization with which you are involved, but you have probably seen people who struck you as either good or not so good. What made the good speakers good, and what made the other speakers need some work?

Think about what you have learned from Lesson 2 on speech preparation. Apply these concepts to your analysis. Did preparation play a role in effective delivery?

Please, in an effort to avoid personal values, do not discuss politicians or religious clergy in this forum. This should not refer to public figures on television, or a YouTube clip, but people you have seen in person.

Part 2

Based on what you have seen and discussed here, what are your biggest hopes for the speech you are presenting this week? What do you think are going to be your strengths? How do you plan to prepare and conduct research for your speeches? Also, if you have concerns, comment on how you plan on dealing with them.

Post replies must be at least 100 + responses

Forum reply 1. Jacob

I would rather not continue to talk about the military in my forums but, one of the most flawless and exemplary speakers I’ve had to opportunity to listen to was one of my Troop Commanders. Brett Talkington was his name, he was a very well educated man; a graduate from West Point. I believe that the curriculum at West Point played a major factor in his ability to speak. Given the courses you had to take where very demanding to be an officer in the United States Army. He had a very large vocabulary both good and bad words given he dealt with 89 or so soldiers every day. He could transition flawlessly into any other subject he was communicating about. His posture and presence played a very large role; when he communicated, he had little to no “filler words” his presence that he gave off was very well educated. What made him a good public speaker was that he always knew what he was talking about, even if he didn’t know, he made it seem like he did. I think that’s on of the major key’s when you public speak, having that knowledge of what your talking about, if not, you kind of make yourself look like a fool and very unprepared which goes in hand with our lesson this week on preparation. In relation to the lesson and CPT Talkington, I believe whenever he spoke to us, he was well prepared in advance. He knew his key points, transitions, and the total outcome of what he wanted conveyed in his speech. He was a good public speaker.

I am kind of nervous for this weeks speech to be honest. number one I don’t really like pictures of myself let alone videos. And number two being 6 foot 5 it is kind of hard to get waist and above on the camera. My biggest hope for the speech is that the point of my career choice is completely conveyed to my audience. I believe that my strengths for this speech is that it is going to be my own opinion so having that presence of knowledge will be easy. I can say I plan on practicing the speech with m wife over facetime, cause that will give me the most realistic representation of how it will go down.

forum post 2. Mariah

Part One:

Earlier last month, I was apart of a wedding party where the day of the wedding the maid of honor was still indecisive as too what points to talk about during her speech. She had her note cards with her and I glimpsed at her a few times re-reading them prior to the reception. She scrambled it all together and asked what we thought. We gave her feedback as to what she should leave out or discuss further. Fast forward to the ceremony and it is her time to shine, unfortunately it was pretty terrible. Her speech was unorganized and she would jump from one point to another without any sort of transitioning. She repeated herself on multiple occasions and left out a lot of key elements in a wedding speech regarding the actual couple we were there to celebrate. I don’t believe much time was spent preparing for the speech and she just scribbled some ideas down onto note cards and decided to ‘wing it.’ It showed during her speech.

Part Two:

My hopes for this weeks speech is to be better organized and bring more confidence. I have always been flawed in this aspect. I always second guess myself and my capabilities, it tends to show through while speaking. Perhaps its my fear and anxiety showing. I believe over the years I have improved tremendously on my flaws and I hope that my growth will be my strength this week as well. My research will also be a strength during my speech, because I second guess myself frequently, I research multiple articles from scholarly sources to obtain creditability.

Assignment Choice #2: Maintaining Long-Term Professional Relationships

Assignment Choice #2: Maintaining Long-Term Professional Relationships

One of the most important aspects of negotiating with someone or a business that you have a long-term and on-going relationship with is maintaining that relationship post-negotiation. Consider the following negotiation:

You are the project manager for a manufacturing company. You have a long-term relationship with a supplier that provides your company with computer chips for your product. There have never been any previous issues, and you and the supplier have had a great relationship. However, with the last shipment, there were defects in 25% of the chips. You need to discuss this issue with the supplier and determine the best solution. Your main concern is not ruining the relationship, but the defects are costly for your organization.

Based on this scenario, brainstorm your answers for the following areas:

Goals

Trades

Alternatives

Relationship

Expected outcome

Consequences of winning or losing

Power

Possible solutions

After completing the eight areas, prepare a letter to the supplier’s president. Consider the elements above in the letter. Your letter should contain the following:

Current issue

Your suggestion for solving this issue

The outcome you would like to see

Time frame

Suggest your alternatives and solutions

Your answers to the eight elements can be written in a numbered list; however, your letter should be written in complete sentences and appropriate business letter format. The letter should be 1-2 pages in length and should be structured formally following the APA Requirements.

  1. The handout that you will distribute to audience members describes the problem in your community and your action plan.
  2. You may design this as an outline of your presentation or as a brochure to accompany your presentation with highlighted key points.
  3. The purpose of this handout is both to educate the audience about the issue and to help them follow along with you as you speak. Keep in mind that in real life you will have limited time to convince people of the gravity of the situation and to come on board with their support, so you want to be persuasive and get to the key points quickly and effectively.
