INFORMATIVE SPEAKING ASSIGNMENT

CULTURE SPEECH

If you have had direct contact with a different culture, you should supplement your library research with your personal experience; however, the speech is not to be a travelogue or a presentation on "My Summer in Europe" or "My Year as an Exchange Student in Brazil."

On the other hand, a speech on how Europeans spend their summer vacations or on the educational system of Brazil would be fine. (You may decide to give this speech alone or with a partner.)
