What’s different about public speaking

• Requires more formal language – it is expected slang, jargon and bad grammar have no place in public speeches, a speech should be special
• Requires a different method of delivery – no vocal crutches, speaking louder than you normally would, good posture, avoid distracting mannerisms

Introduction
• Get the attention and interest of your audience
• Reveal the topic of your speech• Establish credibility and goodwill• Preview the body of the speech
![Page 7: SPE 108 Parts of the Speech](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55499e08b4c905a6758b4b5a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Attention and interest
Attention devices:• Relate the topic to the
audience• State the importance of
your topic• Startle the audience• Arouse the curiosity of the
audience• Question the audience• Begin with a quotation• Tell a story
![Page 8: SPE 108 Parts of the Speech](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55499e08b4c905a6758b4b5a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Reveal the topic
• Don’t confuse your audience; do not assume they know what you will be speaking about
• Do not assume your attention device is descriptive enough
• Introduce your topic clearly
![Page 9: SPE 108 Parts of the Speech](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55499e08b4c905a6758b4b5a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Establish credibility and goodwill
• Credibility = perception (audience)• Are you qualified to speak on this topic?• Why should we believe you are?• Whatever the source of your expertise, let the
audience know!• Goodwill = mean no harm• How can you take a topic your audience feels
negatively about and reason your side?

Preview the Body of the Speech
• Most people are poor listeners
• Preview statements let your audience know EXACTLY what you’re going to be talking about
• Identify what main points are coming up in the body of the speech
![Page 11: SPE 108 Parts of the Speech](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55499e08b4c905a6758b4b5a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Tips for prepping the introduction
• Keep it brief – should be about 10-20% of your total speech
• When conducting research, keep an eye out for possible attention devices
• Be creative in developing the introduction• Re-work wording after you’ve completed the body of
the speech – after you’ve determined the main points, it’ll be easier to decide how to begin the speech
• Work out the introduction in DETAIL. It is the first – and most important – part of the speech
![Page 12: SPE 108 Parts of the Speech](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55499e08b4c905a6758b4b5a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The body
• Organization is key• See formal speech outline for structureOrder types:Chronological: follow a time patternSpatial: directional pattern (from top to bottom, from to
back, east to west)Causal: illustrate a cause and effect relationshipProblem-solution: 2 parts – first shows the problem,
second shows possible solutionsTopical: dividing the speech topic into subtopics

Connectives
• Transitions: a word or phrase that indicated when a speaker has finished one point and is moving on to another
• Internal preview: much like your preview statement in the introduction, this previews the main points inside the body of the speech
• Internal summaries: sum up previous main point as a method of moving on to the next
• Signposts: brief statements that indicate exactly where you are in the speech (first, second, final)

Conclusion
Serves two functions:• Let the audience know you are finishing• Reinforce the audience’s understanding of, or
commitment to, the central idea
![Page 15: SPE 108 Parts of the Speech](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55499e08b4c905a6758b4b5a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Conclusion
• Reinforcing the central idea:• End with a quotation• Make a dramatic statement• Refer back to the introduction
![Page 16: SPE 108 Parts of the Speech](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55499e08b4c905a6758b4b5a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Tips for prepping the conclusion
• Keep an eye out for possible concluding statements during your research
• End with a bang, not a whimper• Don’t be long winded (should account for 10%
of your total speech)• Don’t leave anything to chance. The
conclusion is an opportunity to have the “final say.” Prepare well and practice this often!
