Guest Speakers
Guest Speakers should come from actual departments that students will be applying to when they graduate is important so they can see that there are actual people doing the jobs they are stdying for.
Instructors should make contact with the guest speaker before they meet the class, to consult with them about the subject matter to be discussed; to welcome their interaction; to thank them for their participation; and to suggest certain ways in which the speaker can engage the class.
Some students can recommend great guest speakers.
Usually, if they are impressed by the speaker, other students will be as well.
Hi Sherry,
I concur! Guest speakers are the absolute best! Students get excited every time they learn of having a guest speaker.

Guest speakers are great . Students get to interact with someone besides the Instructor that is in there career field. Students enjoy guest speakers and they ask lots of great questions also.
