Abstract
This presentation will discuss the design and implementation of a
persuasive speaking course at Mahidol University International College.
The original design was based on the need to offer advanced speaking
skills courses and to teach debate at a university level. The course has
since evolved to incorporate the use of basic psychology and audience
analysis to increase the persuasiveness of speakers regarding questions of
fact, policy and value. This presentation also discusses some of the
problems associated with changes in course design and effectiveness of
CD-ROM, DVD, video cameras and internet technologies as tools to
demonstrate strong/weak persuasion strategies.
