There are two parts to this course. Firstly, we will concentrate on sharpening communication skills. Each person will be asked to give a talk to the group which is as dynamic, eloquent and convincing as possible. We will look at how to:

* Structure a talk.
* Involve your audience while you are speaking.
* Stimulate debate.
* Understand some aspects of group communication in the English-
speaking world.



Secondly, we will create the ninth issue of the Ecole Polytéchnique English magazine X-Pression, which is read and discussed by many students at the school, and will be available both online and as hard copy. This magazine will include illustrated articles by each of you on subjects of your own choice, while the group might also choose a common theme that links together various articles. These could be about issues at the school itself, about travel or sport, cinema or music, subjects which will attract and stimulate debate between readers.
