I need help with a project guys and gals...

- Some people get bullied badly for mess ups
- some people have a legit fear of speeking publicly
- some people aren't good speaker
- some people are so shy and afraid of presentations they get physically ill

Well Zanhar pretty much sagte everything, but I think another point is that it WASTES TIME. I mean seriously. I've experienced lessons where no-one ends up giving a speech at all because everyone was like, "I DON'T WANNA *le cry*".

Plus, Du only get marked on how good of a speaker Du are, which is bullshit, coz some people are shy, and how are they gonna give their speech and get marked on it if they can't give the speech at all? Fail.

Um... some people have severe anxiety disorders, and forcing them to go through with something that stressful can induce extreme panic attacks (and medication doesn't always help), and as zanhar1 said, people can get extremely sick over anxiety this bad.

Also, I sagte this on someone's Kommentar on the Zufällig spot, but I have a friend at school who blacks out whenever she has to speak in front of the class. When she sits back down, she can't remember anything she just said.

Well, alot of teachers only do it to help students get over stage fright but what their really doing is creating tremendous anxiety and increasing the amounts of panic attacks they were hoping to decrease.
