There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu
*********************************
In this workshop, you will learn features of North American pronunciation that are important in communicating effectively. By modifying your speech even slightly, your speaking will become much easier to understand. You will learn about pausing and word stress for emphasis, intonation to indicate questions or doubt, and rhythm for sounding more fluent. You will learn tools that will help you hear these features in English and start adding them to your speech.
