Note for Visually Impaired Students

For visually impaired students to be able to take some of these papers, a number of
supplementary readings are offered. These are to be read/discussed in connection with the
texts in the classroom, so as to create a sustainable and diverse model of inclusive pedagogy.
For visually impaired students, this set of readings will also be treated as primary, and may
be examined as such. The supplementary readings may be used as theorizations or
frameworks for understanding the course.

For purposes of assessment/ evaluation, a general advisory may be made to assist visually
impaired students filter out areas they may not be able to address due to the nature of their
disability and to focus on using supplementary texts to instead create other perspectives/
forms of knowledge on the same texts.

Course Objectives

Effective communication is an essential skill for success in any sphere of activity, from
leadership responsibilities, teamwork, interviews, presentations, and inter-personal relations.
This is a skill that needs to be taught in a systematic manner so that students imbibe the
fundamentals of communication. The art of persuasive speaking and writing depends
crucially on clarity of thought and contextual understanding expressed through appropriate
vocabulary.

The ability to think critically is crucial for a good communicator and involves an
understanding of the communicative process. Therefore, we need to study every stage of this
process systematically in order to be much more effective at communicating successfully --
in interviews, public speaking, letter writing, report writing, presentations, and inter-personal
debates and conversations.

Learning Outcomes

o Students will master the art of persuasive speech and writing.


o Students will master the art of listening, reading, and analyzing. Students will spend
the bulk of their time in class in practical exercises of reading and writing.
o Students will develop critical thinking skills.
