We do research all the time…Your family wants to go on a
vacation together…◦How do you research your options?
![Page 4: Chapter 6 - Public Speaking](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022100723/58f0effc1a28aba9108b45dd/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What your audience expects…Audience members rely on you to
provide clear, accurate, current, and balanced information.◦What do you think I mean by
balanced?

Preparing for your search…What do you already know about
your topic?How did you find this information
out?◦Can you go back to this “source” for
more information?What sources can you use to find
out more overall?◦Internet, library, interviews…
![Page 7: Chapter 6 - Public Speaking](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022100723/58f0effc1a28aba9108b45dd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
It is important to…Examine your own experience.Indentify multiple perspectives
about your topic.◦This is particular important in your
persuasive speech.

Primary vs. Second SourcesPrimary: Expresses the author’s
original ideas or findings from original research.
Secondary: Are others’ interpretations or adoptions of primary sources.◦If you go “straight to the source” you
will get better quality information…why? The information hasn’t been filtered through other authors’ perspectives/perceptions.

WikipediaShould you ever use it?
◦How could you use it?
◦My recommendation for this class: Use Google Scholar

When do you conduct an interview?Specialized information you can
only get through an interview (or gives a better perspective).
Not when you can get the same information from another source.
![Page 12: Chapter 6 - Public Speaking](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022100723/58f0effc1a28aba9108b45dd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Interview Questions – Table 6.7Primary questions are your main
questions that you will plan before an interview.
Secondary questions can be more difficult to plan. ◦Often times they are spontaneous. ◦They are based off of the responses
from the primary questions.◦Could be as simple as, “Go on.”
![Page 13: Chapter 6 - Public Speaking](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022100723/58f0effc1a28aba9108b45dd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Asking questions…Open vs. Closed questions.
◦Open-ended questions are broadly stated.◦Closed-ended questions usually result in
“yes” or “no” type of feedback.Neutral vs. Leading
◦An ethical interviewer will not try to lead someone to answer in a specific way. “Which sport do you think is better for children
to play, soccer or basketball?” Only gives the interviewee two options to
chose from.

What to do before you begin…How you open an interview sets
the tone for the entire conversation.◦1. Establish rapport (get
comfortable)◦2. Provide orientation (explain how
the interview is going to take place – ask if it is okay if you can record and make sure this question and answer is on your recording)
![Page 15: Chapter 6 - Public Speaking](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022100723/58f0effc1a28aba9108b45dd/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
BeforehandPractice your interview with
either yourself or someone else.Have a guide for the questions
you are going to ask.Pick an appropriate setting.If possible record the interview
(ask permission first.)

During interview…Ask one question at a time.Monitor your verbal and
nonverbal cues.

Question…How might you “cite” your
sources during your speech?◦Ideas?
