•Communication is a process; it starts
with a stimulus, which is an idea or concept
that the sender has and would like to convey.
•The sender encodes the message by putting
it into words and then expresses the ideas in
proper sequence.
•This message is then accepted and
interpreted or decoded by the receiver.
•The receiver may or may not respond to
the sender. If the receiver chooses to
respond, then he or she will provide
feedback.
•When providing feedback, the receiver
then becomes the sender, and the first
sender then becomes the receiver of the
message.
ESSENTIAL QUESTION

an essential human need?”

3.A lawyer giving a closing argument in court, arguing about
whether the defendant is innocent or guilty of the crime
PERSUASIVE SPEECH
“I said earlier that it would be far off from reality that poverty would be solved,
why? Because first, we should identify the cause of poverty and from there it
would be solved. So what do you think the cause ladies and gentlemen? Is it
overpopulation? Unemployment? Pollution? Lack of education? Poor governance?
Or is it corruption? Ladies and gentlemen all of these are the causes and who
should we blame? Who do you think we should blame? The government?Yes,
certainly it is. But who’s more to blame are the citizens.Yes, it is us. Every Filipino,
every people are to blame and why it is us? Just imagine if all people have proper
discipline, what would our country be? A nice, clean, peaceful country.
Who wouldn't want to see a Philippines like that? No pollution, less crime, no
corruption. For only if its people are disciplined, the politicians, the workers,
professionals, students, the old ones and even kids, this country could be
developed and fight for poverty.”

you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most
certainly be right.' It made an impression on me, and since
then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror
every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day
of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do
today?' And whenever the answer has been 'No' for too
many days in a row, I know I need to change something.“

Ladies and gentlemen all of these are the causes and who should we blame? Who do you think we should blame? The government?Yes, certainly it is. But who’s more to blame are the citizens.Yes, it is us. Every Filipino, every people are to blame and why it is us? Just imagine if all people have proper discipline, what would our country be? A nice, clean, peaceful country. Who wouldn't want to see a Philippines like that? No pollution, less crime, no corruption. For only if its people are disciplined, the politicians, the workers, professionals, students, the old ones and even kids, this country could be developed and fight for poverty.”

Editor's Notes

  • #129 Welcome to Public Speaking, An Introduction for Class Reps…. I’m (name) and I am one of Glasgow Caledonian University Students’ Associations (role) and I will be running this workshop. The aim of this workshop is to basically give you few tips on how to improve your public speaking as well as give you a taster of some of the things covered in the “Introduction to Public Speaking” workshop available as part of GCU Students’ Associations Student Leaders Programme.
  • #130 What skills are required for Public Speaking? The following three skills are required for … Planning & Preparation Positive Non-Verbal Communication Confidence In this session we will only be looking at and focusing on the importance of Planning & Preparation for effective Public Speaking and the importance of Non-Verbal Communications for effective Public Speaking. We won’t be looking at Confidence.
  • #131 First off … What is Public Speaking? Public Speaking is a ‘formal’ face-to-face communication method where a person(s) uses the medium of speech to inform and/ or influence a group of listeners (an audience). It’s important to remember that when we are talking about Public Speaking, we are not just talking about making speeches. Public Speaking is any formal situation where you use speech to inform and/ or influence an audience face-to-face. Other examples of public speaking can include… Delivering lectures, seminars and training Making presentations Debating Conducting demonstrations Why is developing Public Speaking skills important for Class Reps? Being able to inform and influence both students and university staff members through effective communications is essential for a Class Rep to be able to help improve the learning experience at GCU. Although Class Reps won’t really be delivering speeches in their role, they will often have to undertake some form of public Speaking during their role. For example… Lecture or Seminar shout-out to influence student to pass on feedback about their learning experience, or to inform students about how you dealt with the views, opinions and issues you have received. Presentations in SSCG Meetings to inform the University of the views, opinions and issues students have, or to influence the University to make a positive change to the learning experience.
  • #132 What does it mean if you fail to plan you plan to fail? It was Benjamin Franklin who said “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” What he meant was that basically success doesn't happen by accident. It takes planning, knowing where you are heading and how you will get there
  • #134 How did you find having to talk concisely for 60 seconds on a randomly selected topic without any chance to plan or prepare? Did you find it easy? Or did you find it very hard? That you found it very hard is no surprising. Very few great (or even good) public speakers can actually speak effectively without planning & preparation! All public speaking activities, whether it’s delivering a speech, lecture or presentation, really require planning & preparation. If you don’t plan and prepare for your public speaking activity you will find it very difficult, if not impossible to effectively communicate your message to your audience. As a general rule, out of the total amount of time you spend on any Public Speaking activity you should aim to spend around 90% of it planning and preparing what you will say and how you will say it, and only around 10% of it on the actual delivery of the activity. So for example, if you have a one minute speech to deliver you should aim to spend at least 9 minutes preparing to deliver it. Before you can start to plan and prepare the message and the structure for your Public Speaking activity you will need to consider the… Audience (Who you are trying to inform and/or influence) Purpose (What you want to achieve by informing and/or influencing your audience) Timings (How long you have to inform and or influence your audience)
