CC7 – Research Your Topic

Project 7 in the Competent Communication Manual is “Research Your Topic”

You can find this material on the Internet, at a library, and in other places. Use information collected from numerous sources and carefully support points with specific facts, examples and illustrations, rather than with just your own opinions.
Time:
5 – 7 minutes
Objectives:
Collect information about your topic from numerous sources.
