    What is the significance of the figure of Socrates, as Plato presents him in the story of his trial and execution, in The Apology, Crito, and Phaedo? What principles does he stand for? What methods does he employ? What do we learn through the example of Socrates in these dialogues? 2) In Plato’s Republic, Socrates constructs a notion of justice in dialogue with other characters. What are Cephalus’, Polemarchus’, and Thrasymachus’ ideas of justice, as presented in Book 1, and in which ways does Socrates’ notion of justice differ from each of theirs? 3) Provide an account of Plato’s Noble Lie in Book 3 of Republic. What are the larger purposes of this mythos? What can Socrates’ suggestion to use a Noble Lie within the just city teach us about the foundation of regimes, and how human beings might live, in a just way, within political communities? 4) Provide an account of Plato’s three-part schema of the human soul and his threeclass schema of the ideal city. Explain how justice is to be realized, according to Plato, within the soul and the ideal city. What is your opinion of his account? 5) Explain Plato’s doctrine of forms, which describes a two-world metaphysics. What is the significance of this way of understanding reality? Do you find Plato’s account convincing? Why or why not?

    You can learn a lot about a presentation by how the presenter delivers it.

    Write down feedback on how you think the presentation was improved, what you think worked for you and what didn’t.
    b) As part of COM10007 assessment, every student will present to the rest of the tutorial group. Spend a few minutes considering what your topic for the class presentation will be – post some of your initial ideas, stating why you are considering them.
    2. Over the years, presentation styles change. View “Non Verbal Communication” clip on You Tube.
    The Nonverbal Advantage by Carol Kinsey Goman | Book Brief
    a) Consider if Carol Kinsey-Gorman is a good presenter herself – what do you remember?
    b) Do you agree with everything Carol Kinsey Gorman is suggesting in this clip?
    3. One of the common tasks assigned to professional communicators is to organise events and then to communicate them to the target audience. Imagine you have been asked to prepare a plan for the staff party (70 staff) to be held in a garden marquee in a public park next door to your office at lunchtime, but because of COVID-19 you need to exercise social distancing:
    a) What might be the objective (and any sub-objectives) that the company would hope to achieve by hosting such an event?
    b) What is the likely mood of the staff? (Would it be different for younger and older people? If so, why?)
    c) What is the best medium to present this information in to your boss, the Head of Public Affairs, for approval?
    d) How do you think you should present the plan to the CEO?
    4. It is human nature to be angry when a service that you have had for some time gets withdrawn. In allocated groups, imagine you work for a major bank, which is shutting down its branch at Wonthaggi due to financial pressures. You have been asked to attend the local council meeting to explain to the residents why the bank is closing this branch.
    a) What would be the most important messages to get across to the community about modern banking?
    b) What would you actually say to the council meeting?

    SCENARIO
    During their summer break, a group of twenty students from a prestigious British high school went on a week-long tour of Italy, accompanied by their Art History teacher. They visited a number of cities—Venice, Florence, Rome—admiring artworks in museums, visiting churches and monuments, and enjoying gelatos and iced coffees in their free time.
    One day, the students went to see Santa Maria del Fiore, the cathedral in Florence. As they were waiting in line to enter the cathedral, they were approached by street sellers offering selfie sticks, “I
    Taking advantage of a moment when the teacher was admiring the stained-glass windows inside, five of the students borrowed a marker and also wrote on the cathedral wall: “XXX Grammar School, August 5, 2017.” Unfortunately for them, the teacher found out almost right away, and she was not exactly thrilled. She rounded up the class, and asked who had made graffiti on the monument; the five culprits quickly confessed. Angry and embarrassed, the teacher dragged them to the cathedral museum offices, where she tried to explain the situation to one of the employees. Luckily, the museum director was on site, and after some back and forth the teacher was directed to his office, where she again explained what had happened.
    “We are terribly sorry, sir; the kids would like to apologise to you in person, and they will personally clean up the graffiti they made. We will be back first thing tomorrow morning with sponges and bleach, and they will scrub it all away, I promise.”
    “Signora,” the director replied, “don’t worry about it. They are kids, these things happen! There’s no need for you to come back tomorrow to clean up!”
    “Sir, I insist, I am really sorry about this, and it is important that the kids learn a lesson here.”
    “Signora, believe me, it’s ok. Please don’t worry about it.”
    “Sir, please, let me bring the kids back to apologise to you in person, and also wipe out the graffiti. They even wrote the name of the school! This is not the kind of behaviour that we condone at XXX Grammar!”
    “Signora, please, it’s fine, it was just kids’ play! Besides, you cannot just use bleach on the walls of the cathedral. This is century-old marble, it needs to be handled by specialised personnel with the appropriate techniques, you can’t just scrub it with a cleaning product from the supermarket.”
    “I understand; well, if that is the case, we are willing to pay for the specialised technicians to do the cleaning. It is our responsibility to do that. Just let me know who I can contact and how can I pay for this.”
    “Madam, it’s not necessary, these things are very expensive, your graffiti will get wiped the next time we do an overall cleaning of the cathedral walls.”
    “And when will that be?”
    “Ah, well, we are not sure… there is talk of some European funds coming for this, but I cannot give you an exact date now, these things take a long time. It could be next year or it could be ten years from now, it really depends.”
    “But surely there must be a way to do it sooner than that? As I said, we are willing to pay whatever there is to pay!”
    “Madam, really, you are getting worked up about nothing; they are kids, these things happen, please don’t worry about it!”
    The conversation continued like this for some time. Both parties were getting increasingly frustrated.

    What was the most helpful presentation clip – why? Be prepared to share your thoughts.
    Think about your own presentation which will be done over weeks 10 and 11 and be prepared to share these thoughts with your group:
    Write down what your objective is (and any sub-objectives):
    List three key points you want to make in your presentation:
    c.
    What do you think the target audience of your presentation will be looking for?
    Write down the type of aids, props, equipment, mediums and cues that can be used in a presentation to enhance its effectiveness (consider also the appropriateness of such aids for your target audience).
    Discuss with your group what are the advantages/disadvantages of using a script to present?
    One of the most common tools used by speakers is projecting slides onto a screen as it helps reinforce the speaker’s points and provide images, facts and figures.
    Examine the benefits of using slides (PowerPoint/Prezi etc), especially how these can help alleviate anxiety and how they may enhance a presentation. Watch this video and be prepared to discuss what your learned.
    According to the lecture, what are the benefits of using visual aids in a presentation (Text pgs389 – 404)?
    Now watch these videos and be prepared to discuss your thoughts on how slides can detract from the effectiveness of a presentation:

    Delivery styles:
    autocratic – tells you how
    democratic – tells you why
    laisse faire – tells you for interests’ sake
    bureaucratic – tells you for the organisation’s sake
    discuss what works best and when/why?
    Do you believe most politicians when they give a media conference – why or why not?? Give an example of a political statement in the media this week – and why/why not you can trust what they say!
