It took me a simple Google search, as the second link that came up was the Patrica Fripp podcasts. I already use her videos in my classes. Knowing she offers podcasts opens new possibilities for sharing her knowledge with my public speaking students. The website: http://www.fripp.com/
A portion of Fripp’s Bio copied from the site:
Patricia has won or been awarded these designations by the National Speakers Association: Certified Speaking Professional (CSP), CPAE, Hall of Fame keynote speaker, and the Cavett Award (considered the Oscar of speaking). Named “One of the 10 most electrifying speakers in North America” by Meetings and Conventions magazine, Patricia delivers high-content, entertaining, dramatically memorable presentations. One of the few professional speakers who can transform the presentation skills of others, she is an executive speech coach and sales presentation skills trainer. Kiplinger’s Personal Finance wrote that one of the best investments in your career is Patricia Fripp’s presentation skills training.
Because Fripp’s podcasts broaden and also narrow the textbook concepts (depending on the concept), her podcasts will drive depth into the course material.
If I were to include these in my course, I might have students do any of the following:
· Analyze her speaking style and the content
· Write a reflection on how one of Fripp’s podcast’s taught them something about communication not included in our text.
· Do a mini-presentation to the class discussing a podcast and that makes course concept connections.
