Welcome to the class blog of COM 315! This course adderssses the specific challenges involved in communicating complex, technical information to both lay and experienced audiences. Throughout the semester, we will be reading several journal articles relating to how presenters can communicate complex ideas in a clear and understanding way.

Persuasive Speech Topics

Currently I am considering speaking about how lead should continue to be allowed in aviation fuel. I would discuss why the lead is needed in the aircraft engines and why requiring unleaded fuel immediately would be detrimental to the U.S. transportation infrastructure. I am also thinking about speaking on why noise abatement procedures at airports should be implemented nationwide and how those procedures affect aircraft operation.
