Speech Delivery
Question:
Are effective speakers made, or are they
naturally born effective speakers?
Finding practical applications of concepts and
skills in daily living:
Interview a local official or a student government
officer on his her experiences in public speaking
(campaign speeches, reading of policy or memo in
public, introducing a speaker, giving of
welcome/opening or closing remarks, inspirational
talk, etc). Then, with a minimum of 500 words, make a
written report about their responses.
Making Generalization:
As a student in public speaking, you should know that
public speaking is not simply reading your speech or
about your topic, it requires making connections with
your audience and presenting yourself formally to the
public. Try to imagine yourself delivering a boring speech
before a public where you failed to build a rapport to the
audience, or delivering it without preparations and
mastery, wouldn’t you be a laughing stock? Would your
speech deliver its purpose?
Evaluating Learning:
Differentiate the four types of speech delivery in terms
of definition and examples of speaking situations.
