oral communication

One way I learned oral communication was by learning to work in a peer group. When I first joined my group, I experienced a certain level of insecurity, which showed me that we often will be taken out of our element when we work. Our body language says a lot about our mindset, which was evident when we joined the group. We were encouraged to balance our eye contact. We listen to the speaker, but focus on each other. When I’m in a group I want everyone to have equal involvement, and I learned a way to accomplish that is to look at everyone individually. Looking at a person is acknowledgment, and it encourages people to interject.

draft French Declaration Of The Rights Of Man And Citizen

In 1789 French war veteran M. Lafayette proposed the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen, modeled after the United States Declaration of Independence. It lists a series of inalienable rights that every man should have, and government should module itself to follow these rights; one of the most important rights listed, in my opinion, is the 11th Right which is the freedom of press and speech. What is the value of free speech in this modern age, how has society changed because of this right? In accordance with the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen, everyone should have the right to free speech, which I believe to be a crucial part of individual growth.

The exact words of the 11th right is as quoted “free communication of ideas and opinions is one of the most precious of the rights of man. Consequently, every man may speak, write, and print freely, subject to responsibility for the abuse of such liberty in the case is determined by law."
