“…Research by social biologists has indicated that heredity is a determinant of sociability and it follows that it may be a factor contributing to OCA [30]. Spielberger is credited with having originally proposed the notion that anxiety could be a trait [32]. He proposed that anxiety research should focus on the existence of a "personality trait that remains relatively stable over time" [33].…”

The intervention, which takes place with foundation level undergraduate Accounting students, is underpinned by problem-based learning and contributing student pedagogy and focuses on the development of self-efficacy which has been identified to be a key area for the reduction of oral communication apprehension in public speaking contexts [6]. The paper will introduce the concept of communication apprehension in oral presentations and discuss causes and possible interventions. It details the progress that has been made in the study which uses qualitative data in the form of research conversations and student reflections. Such an approach is taken in order to gain insights into the "lived experiences" of students, which has been absent in much of the previous research conducted in the area [5].

Practice and experience can make significant improvements to speech anxiety levels [3]. However, the overpracticing of a talk can make the delivery stiff and rehearsed.…”

Talented public speakers have thousands of hours of practice. One means of improving public speaking skills is practice through improvisation, e.g. presenting an improvised presentation using an unseen slide deck. We present Tedric, a novel system capable of generating coherent slide decks based on a single topic suggestion. It combines semantic word webs with text and image data sources to create an engaging slide deck with an overarching theme. We found that audience members perceived the quality of improvised presentations using these generated slide decks to be on par with presentations using human created slide decks for the Improvised TED Talk performance format. Tedric is thus a valuable new creative tool for improvisers to perform with, and for anyone looking to improve their presentation skills.
