Kurt has some great rules about speaking to students he posted on his blog today and an early review of Doug Fields’ new book, Speaking to Teenagers. Here’s a clip of his wisdom, head there for much more:

- The first minute is the most important minute.
- It doesn’t need to be long to be good.
- If it’s going to be long, it needs to be good.
- Students like to laugh.
- Students like stories (especially real life ones…not from an illustration book).
- Be real.
