Description: |
Grammatical errors can hinder successful spoken communication. Speakers can communicate with more clarity and specificity when they correctly use articles (a, an, the) and plurals, thus avoiding confusion. In this workshop, attendees will review and practice using articles and plurals in the context of providing a clear teaching demonstration on a topic in their field of study. An optional assignment for extended practice will be available on Canvas.
Learning Outcomes: Participants will be able to...
1. Identify situations or contexts within their teaching domains where the correct usage of articles and plurals is crucial for avoiding ambiguity.
2. Provide clear and unambiguous instructions, explanations, or demonstrations on topics within their field of expertise by appropriately employing articles and plural forms. |
