i think it means ANY two, but you should prob just check with your teacher. they may reccomend you to choose within the natural pairing.

i'm pretty sure it means any two, like as long as you can find a way of answering the question with those two.

cos at our school we did the speeches in different pairings than some other people on here have.

i'm pritty sure u need to know every single one of them

what kind of assessments do u guys get for this module...?

my teacher's making us write an essay for each speech... and each essay is assessed... i find writing an essay for each speech is completely unhelpful... that way it makes linking ideas and themes between the speeches quite difficult in the end...

by assessments you mean? we had a speech to do on a speech of our choice (speech on a speech :p) and speak as the composer......which i thought i did poorly at as compared to the other extension students in my class :rolleyes: ...oh well....scored 19/20 so couldnt have been so bad.....but thats the only assessment we have on speeches......all we do is get given notes and we have to write heaps of notes about the speeches ourselves as well..........

and as far as this publication....i would not have a clue... sorry

we went into depth for most of them but our teacher didnt teach us all of them cuz we had to "move on" to the next topic so we'll go abck to it but yeh so its jut a teach urself the rest kindve a thing........... but we had to write a 3min speech based on 2 speeches..........."Every text has its used by date" and argue that using 2 texts as an example. it was a past question..! but yeah, we had to know 3 in depth for our half yearlies!........ that was a question on how speeches have impacted ur life or something like that..! But yeh just focus on two i say its highly unlikely they will specify so pick two that coincide and focus on them.

lol i know i was very tired.....u said u had to know 3 speeches in depth for your half yearlies and we didnt have half yearlies for english nor have we had our trials yet. how many modules do you have to go? we have to do power and thats our last one which we start next week or so.......(hope it makes more sense i even confused myself :p)
