● Keep words on the slide short and simple. You want your audience to listen to you,…
Although you did look at your notes a little longer than I would have liked, you looked at your notes a lot less and it made it look like you were really on top of your stuff. Another big thing for me is you raised your voice and you looked more comfortable in front of the class. You also incorporated humor into the speech which I think is necessary when talking about something so sad but I think you should do next time is maybe incorporate a little less funny jokes just to show you are truly saddened by what's going on. I think adding the visual aid was really important because I think it helped keep you on track and on pace.…
What I think I did well about the way I delivered, was that I used an audience to shake my hand. I was showing the audience how El Salvador salute each other. I was making some eye contact with some of the audience, and my vocal was loud enough for the audience to hear me. What I would like to improve upon with regards to my delivery is to have a lot of body movements while give the presentation.…
Speech: I think the speech is understandable and very clear and it inspired many people and gave…
I went the first day, so I don’t have a recording to look at. Even though I cannot see my speech I still realized some of my strengths and weaknesses. Some of my weaknesses consisted of: bad transition words, sounding shaky within the introduction, and time. My strengths consisted of: good movement, good tone, good statistics, and good eye contact. To start off my introduction I was very nervous, and I don’t know for sure, but I think the audience could tell. My transition into my first main point was not the best, but once I was in my first main point I was able to settle and really stroll through the rest of my speech. Within my speech I was able to incorporate many statistics to make my point why horse slaughter is needed although I am still…
When I watched my presentation, I saw how I started with a strong introduction with a rhetorical question. I by saying “Who would you call? What would you do? How would you handle the situation? All these questions may be hard for you to answer in your crisis. I got the answer to clean up the mess you got yourself into.” Also, I give the audience a vision by saying “Let’s say your life is being broadcast all over the media or maybe even your company. We all know One of your biggest fears would be getting caught in a scandal or having a bad rep.” You got all part of my introduction to the greeting, thesis, credibility, and overview. I also, had the personality to my speech when talking you could see how enthusiastic I was to the audience. This made my speech be interesting and not dull and my voice a great projectile for everyone in the class to hear. In my speech, I had great eye contact so I had the attention, keen interest, and understanding for my classmates. None verbal communication is “Behaviors, symbols, attributes, or objects—whether intended or not—that communicate messages with social meaning.” In my body of my speech, I provided information in chronically order as my overview. I give great information about the education requirements, job outlook, and Pros and…
I thought the seminar was very interesting I was able to reach my goal by asking meaningful questions at the same time there was a lot of idea i wasn’t able to share with the group due the limited amount of time we had. I also learned a lot from others so i was almost able to picture myself in the shoes of a jew who was barely struggling to live and their life. Although i wasn't able to express some of my ideas i was very satisfied when i was able to learn from ideas from others had to share.…
Overall, I have learned a lot from this class. I learned how to organize a speech effectively and how to deliver it comfortably. If I need to share another speech I hope to prepare even greater and continue to improve. For my next speech, I hope to have the statue posture to allow no…
First off I would like to say that I think I did a much better job on my Informative speech than my Symbol speech. There are things that I did well on my informative speech that I am proud of, things I’m not, and things I can change and improve on for my next speech.…
The video, "Brilliant Public Speaking," discussed practices that a public speaker can use in order to be more effective when delivering the intended message. Getting prepared is the most important part to delivering an effective message. Without preparation, the invitation for disaster exist. Rehearsing the presentation in front of a mirror, or using a video recorder to record yourself can give you a better perspective on how you look while speaking. Dress appropriately, but just a bit different from everyone else. Standing out from the rest of the people there, will set you apart from the start. During the opening remarks, capture the audience with a bang of an opening statement. Make them want more.…
This was the easiest speech, considering that all I had to do was rant about the story I was telling. For this speech, I didn’t feel that nervous because it was something that I remember vividly and nothing could go wrong with it. Moving on to the next speech, which was the informative speech, I felt nervousness once again. The fact that we had to research everything well and make sure the sources were cited correctly, then try memorizing what we would say for 6 minutes, and aside from that remember to do the speaker’s triangle, I got anxious. Fortunately, I did not do horrible, which is what I was expecting. Continuing to the next speech, we had our persuasive speech. This speech at first seemed easy because it was similar to the informative speech in many ways. The only difference was the time limit and the PowerPoint we had to make. For this speech I was well prepared and I felt great about it, I thought it was going to be the best speech. I had high hopes, but not everything goes as planned because as soon as my speech started and I was about to change the slide, I was unable to use the clicker. I got embarrassed and did not want to continue, but I knew I had to. I pushed along through the speech until I finished it. Although it wasn’t the best speech, I had to learn that not everything will flow the way you want things to, and instead you need to move…
Giving a presentation can be a daunting task, especially for those not inclined toward public speaking. Still, even people with poor speaking skills have the potential to give an effective presentation, no matter how large the audience. The key to delivering a compelling presentation is to prepare an effective outline. You will need to follow several guidelines to construct an organized and effective outline.…
As I learned in a public speaking class and through substantial experience giving classes in multiple places and audiences during my recruiting assignment, I made sure to use proper class teaching and briefing techniques like avoiding word fillers, excessive hand and body movement, also avoid the use of distracters like eating or drinking and used the slides as an aid to my briefing not as the main substance for it.…
I think the best part about my speech was my introduction. When I was practicing at home I kept picturing myself as a host of a TV dating show. I was still trying to come up with an attention grabbing opener, so I thought I’d try to work that joke in. I got a few laughs, so I consider that a success. I just need to work on my timing and delivery now.…
My speech was organized. I felt my introduction was short, sweet, and straight to the point. In the beginning I was originally going to engage with my audience by asking,…
