1. a. Have you ever delivered a talk in public? Is it a challenge for you? Why / Why not? Is public speaking an important skill for young people to change the world for the better?

b. Participate in the TED-Ed Student Talks Programme. Follow the steps below.

Step 1. Read the information about the programme and say what kind of talk you need to create for the TED programme.

The TED Student Talks Program supports students as they discover, explore and present their big ideas in the form of short, TED-style talks. TED Conferences (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is a media organisation that posts talks online under the slogan "ideas worth spreading".

Step 2. Follow the link (cutt.ly/LnLT2qE) and watch a few videos of students' talks. What do you think makes TED-style talks so inspiring?

a big idea; a catchy theme; grace and eloquence1; a personal story; humour; a shocking statement; a powerful question; the ability to change your opinion; a call to action; a clear outline; short sentences; a catchphrase.

Step 3. Write the text of your talk.

1. Choose your big idea. What makes your heart beat faster? 2. Think of the audience. What is the message you want to share? What do you want them to remember after they walk away? 3. Master the beginning, the middle and the end.

• Hook your audience into your speech with your opening. Did you know that you have only 30 seconds to gain your audience's attention and motivate them to listen? This is the time your audience form an impression of you. Start with a personal story, a shocking statement, a powerful question, a quotation or a short and clear catchphrase, e.g. "We can't wait!" or "Hope and change!".

• Put the points of the middle in a reasonable order. As your speech progresses, you are taking your audience on an emotional journey. Ask questions to get the audience to reflect on their own lives. This is the way to transform a speech into a conversation. Support your big idea with facts and examples. Remember that you need either to persuade people to change their opinion or to call them to action.

• End your speech in a memorable manner. The conclusion is a powerful way to leave the audience wanting more and remembering the most important points. Signal that you are closing with the phrases "In conclusion", "Let's wrap up", "To sum up", etc. Summarise your main points and provide hope for the better. End your speech on an uplifting note and leave your audience feeling inspired.

4. Proofread your text. Make sure your sentences are short and clear enough for the audience to follow your talk.

Step 4. Rehearse your talk. Practise, practise, practise. Try to avoid such bad habits as saying "um", walking back and forth, turning away from the audience. Ask your friend or relative to listen to you and give their feedback. Ask them:

• Did I explain my idea clearly?

• Was there anything you didn't understand?

• Was there anything out of place?

• Did I lose your interest anywhere?

Step 5. Showtime! Present your idea worth spreading. Practise speaking in public by delivering your talk in class.

Step 6. Give feedback on your classmates' talks. Whose ideas have inspired you / shocked you / touched you / changed your opinion / called you to action?

1. a. Вам когда-нибудь доводилось выступать с речью на публике? Является ли это для вас испытанием? Почему / Почему нет? Является ли ораторское искусство важным навыком для молодых людей, чтобы изменить мир к лучшему?
