Informative Essay Presentation
Your speech should give your audience a deeper understanding of your topic, but should not be designed to affect your audience’s beliefs, attitudes, or behavior.
⦁ Provide adequate support for each main point by citing at least three credible sources in the speech. Incorporate examples, narratives, testimonial evidence, statistics, analogies, explanations, and/or definitions where appropriate. Sources must be cited orally in the speech. If you have had direct contact with a different culture, you should supplement your research with your personal experience.
⦁ Create an introduction and conclusion.
⦁ Once you have thought through each part of the speech, create a rough draft outline of the speech.
⦁ Create speaking notes to use during your delivery. Use key words and phrases rather than complete sentences. Your notes should serve only as a memory aid and should not be a word-for-word manuscript of your speech.
⦁ Practice your presentation before videoing yourself so that you can deliver the information with only occasional glances at your notes.
⦁ Consider asking friends or family members to view your presentation before submitting.
