Talking Skills
Public speaking can help you become more knowledgeable. There is a saying that
we learn:
- 10 percent of what we read,
- 20 percent of what we hear,
- 30 percent of what we see, and
- 70 percent of what we speak. Cited in Judy Self, "The Picture
of Writing to Learn," Plain Talk: About Learning and Writing Across the Cirriculam
ed. Judy Self (Richmond: Virginia Dept. of Education, Spring 1987) 13.
