3
R EVIEW General Purpose: To Inform Specific Purpose: To inform my audience about… Remember—Concise. Do not include too many ideas When using “and” Is it connecting two unrelated ideas?

B ODY OF THE S PEECH
5
M AIN P OINTS Expresses central idea Amount? Be strategic Too many? Fits time frame? Amount of time on each More complex/more supporting materials = more time Huge differences in time? Help your audience process the information Keep main points separate Similar (or recognizable) patterns Effective organization

E XAMPLE -Central idea: Facebook has the potential to affect the type and quality of interpersonal relationships among teenagers - Main Points: I. FB causes faster relationships to form II. FB causes conflict III. FB limits face-to-face interaction

U SING YOUR SUPPORTING MATERIALS Remember: Examples, stats, and testimony— three common types Must support your main ideas, which support your central idea/thesis Must organize your supporting material Will fit in as sub-points/minor points
15
C ONNECTIVES Helps with organization; guides your audience through your speech Transitions Internal Preview Signposts (e.g. questions)

I NTRODUCTIONS AND C ONCLUSIONS
17
I NTRODUCTIONS Objective 1: Gain their attention and interest Make your topic relatable Explain the importance of your topic (to your audience) Startle your audience Build suspense (and their curiosity) Use rhetorical questions Use a powerful (and relevant) quote Tell a story

I NTRODUCTIONS Objective 2:Reveal your topic Objective 3: Establish credibility and goodwill Objective 4: Provide a preview of your main points ***Objective 5: Explain your central idea/thesis Is this the right spot?
20
W HEN CREATING YOUR INTRODUCTION : Remember each objective Keep it brief Be creative While researching, look for valuable intro material Many write the introduction after their main points Practice delivering your introduction Do not write out your entire introduction; use outline format
21
C ONCLUSIONS Signal the end of the speech More creative than “In Conclusion” Reinforce the central idea/thesis Summarize your main points End with a quote End with a dramatic statement Circle back to your introduction
22
C ONCLUSIONS For your next speech, your conclusion will: Signal the end (without saying “In Conclusion”) Reinforce your central idea/Summarize your main points Provide memorable close (e.g. quote, dramatic statement, circling back to your introduction) Make sure to practice your conclusion; be creative

S PEECH W ORKSHOP Create a speech using the research on your topic Should have clear introduction, body, and conclusion Each person should practice with an oral citation Example: “According to a 2012 article on taxes found on IRS.com……” Example: Dr. Goldman is a professor at Gordon State College who researchers this topic. According to a research paper she wrote in 2013……” Example: “Scientist Will Scott conducted an investigation on __________. His findings were reported in Scientist Today in 2014. He found that….” Extemporaneous delivery Consider taking notes in keyword outline format Hint: will come in handy for next speech workshop Thursday class meeting—Outlining and Visual Aids Read handout on faculty webpage (with chapter) Will have speech workshop in class; will have HW/speech workshop due (see faculty webpage)
