• Be aware your topic must be of interest to the audience!
13. Analyze the Audience
• Audience analysis is a systematic process of getting to know
your listeners
• Interviews
• Questionnaires
• Surveys
14. Determine the Speech Purpose
• An informative speech
• Provides an audience with new information or new ways of
thinking about a topic.
• Its general purpose is to increase the audience’s awareness by
imparting knowledge.
• Your speech might be an explanation of a concept or practice; a
description of a person, place, or event; or a physical
demonstration of how something works
15. Determine the Speech Purpose
• A persuasive speech
• intends to influence the attitudes, beliefs, values, or acts of
others
• Some persuasive speeches attempt to modify audience attitudes
and values so that they move in the direction of the speaker’s
stance

conclusion
• Develop each part separately, then bring them together using
transition

20. Consider Presentation Aids

• Graphs
• Props or model
Helps the audience retain ideas and understand difficult
concepts
21. Consider Presentation Aids
• Consider a Prop or Model
• A prop can be any inanimate or live object—a stone or a
snake, for instance—that captures the audience’s attention
and illustrates or emphasizes key points
• Make sure it is big enough for everyone to see (and read, if
applicable).
• Practice your speech using the prop or model.
22. Practice Delivering the Speech
• The success of any speech depends on how well prepared and
practiced you are.
• a good speech is practiced at least six times
• A five to ten minute speech requires at least two hours of practice!
23. PresentationStrategy - Verbal Delivery
Vocal Delivery
Vocal delivery includes speech volume, pitch, rate, variety,
pronunciation, and articulation. As you rehearse, do the
following:
• Pay attention to how loudly or softly you are speaking.
• Pay attention to the rate at which you speak. Aim to speak neither
too fast nor too slowly.
• Decide how you want to phrase your statements, and
then practice saying them.
• Pronounce words correctly and clearly.
24. PresentationStrategy - NonverbalDelivery
Nonverbal Delivery
Beyond noticing the words of a speech, audiences are highly
attuned to a speaker’s nonverbal speech behavior—facial
expression, gestures, general body movement, and overall
physical appearance. As you rehearse, do the following:
• Practice smiling and otherwise animating your face in
ways that feel natural to you. Audiences want to feel that
you care about what you are saying, so avoid a deadpan,
or blank, expression.
• Practice making eye contact with your listeners. Doing so
will make audience members feel that you recognize and
respect them.
• Practice gestures that feel natural to you, steering clear of
exaggerated movements.
25. Managing Speech Anxiety
• Prepare and Practice
• If you are confident that you know your material and have
adequately rehearsed your delivery, you’ll feel far more confident
in front of an audience than otherwise
• Modify Thoughts and Attitudes
• Think positively about public speaking, and remind yourself that
it is an opportunity toward, not a threat to, personal growth
• Visualize Success
• visualize a series of positive feelings and reactions that will occur
on the day of the speech
• Activate the Relaxation Response
• Briefly Meditate
• Use Stress-Control Breathing
• Use Movement to Minimize Anxiety
• Practice Natural Gestures
• Move as You Speak
27. • Phrasal Verbs
• Hold off on = not to purchase as of yet
• Cut down on = reducing or are hiring
less people
• Factor in = consider, include in
equation
• Fall behind = start to perform worse
