Description
Talking about Oracy: Developing Communication Beyond the Classroom by Sarah Davies. Oracy is a vital skill that has been overlooked in recent years. As students progress from childhood to academia, this essential ability seems to be forgotten. In fact, oracy appears to have even less relevance in academia, with some schools erasing any recorded proof of its existence. This book aims to bring oracy back into the spotlight, highlighting its importance for all learners post-academia. Effective communication is a necessity for success, and training students to communicate with different audiences in various contexts is crucial. By developing their oracy skills, teachers can help students become confident communicators, preparing them for life beyond academia. This book provides guidance on how to develop oracy skills, making it an essential resource for classroom teachers. By embracing the importance of oracy, we can resolve misconceptions about its place in the curriculum and ensure that all learners receive the support they need to succeed.
