Public Speaking : My Plans for My Informative Speech
Public Speaking
: My Plans for My Informative Speech
In this week’s chapter readings, lesson, and class discussion, you learned the first steps for how to prepare a speech by selecting a topic, establishing the purpose, identifying the central idea, and organizing the information into a preparation outline.
Deliverable: Prepare and practice making a short speech (2–3 minutes). In your speech, tell us about the topic you have chosen for your Informative Speech that you will deliver in Week 5 and explain why you selected this topic. State your central idea for informing the audience about this topic. Describe several of the main ideas and subtopics that you are planning for your outline.
Review your recording to ensure that it meets the grading rubric criteria. Check to confirm that the link to your recording is a shareable link that works!
Instructions for Making Your On-Camera Video Recording: Review the Week 2 Lesson for instructions about how to use Kaltura Capture to make your video recording and how to get the shareable link to your video. Although submitting a cell phone video is an option, it is not ideal, because the recording is often not of the best quality. Creating a YouTube account and submitting a YouTube link is acceptable as well. If there is another video recording system that you want to use, please check first with your instructor.

Week 5 Assignment
Presentation 2: Informative Speech
Informative Speech
This week, you will deliver your Informative Speech. This is an individual speaking assignment, 3-5 minutes in length, with the general purpose to inform.

Resources that you use to support the information should be referenced orally (out loud during your speech).
The tone and messaging of the presentation should stay informative. Although you can bring yourself into the speech (making it personal), make sure you don’t share any opinions on your topic or try to convince your audience of anything. Focus on your thesis statement and remain objective.
Your presentation should have a fully developed beginning, middle, and ending.
Extemporaneous delivery is expected for this presentation. Have a strong introduction and conclusion prepared while relying on limited notes during the body of your speech so that you maintaining eye contact throughout and not reading your speech to the audience.
Follow our public speaking process: Prepare, practice, present, and reflect.
Video Recording Options: Kaltura Capture (under My Media) is recommended for recording and submitting your on-camera Informative Speech. A YouTube video recording is another option. Although submitting a cell phone video is acceptable, it is not ideal unless the recording is high quality. Check to confirm that the link to your recording is a shareable link that works!

Week 7 Assignment
Presentation 3 Persuasive Speech With Visual Aids
This week, you will prepare, practice, and deliver a 5- to 7-minute persuasive presentation with a PowerPoint. Review and apply the feedback from your instructor on your speech preparation outline and visual aids.
Live presentations should include a Q and A session at the end of the speech. Review Answering Questions From the Audience in this week’s lesson.
Your speech will be evaluated based on the following.
Content: The Week 7 presentation needs to be persuasive in tone and execute a fully developed persuasive strategy that is supported by a PowerPoint presentation. This is not a vocalized PowerPoint; it should be a live or recorded video presentation of you delivering your presentation with PowerPoint (or something similar) as your visual aid. Keep in mind that a visual aid assists the presenter and does not become the entire presentation. The slides should not be read to the audience.
Preparation: Your final presentation should incorporate all four canons of rhetoric (invention, arrangement, style, and delivery) in designing and delivering your message. You should have a strong introduction, several main points supported by research, and a strong conclusion. Incorporate the techniques for vocal variety and using language vividly. Address opposing viewpoints to your stance, and incorporate at least one into your speech, followed by a strong rebuttal.
Timing: The presentation should be 5 to 7 minutes. You should have 5 to 10 slides, plus a title slide at the beginning and an APA-formatted reference slide at the end.
Research: Incorporate the research from scholarly sources that were referenced in your speech preparation outline. During the delivery of the presentation, there should be a minimum of three oral citations.
Delivery: This speech should demonstrate a mastery of the extemporaneous speaking style.
Instructions for Recording: Kaltura Capture (under My Media) is recommended for recording your computer screen that displays your PowerPoint slides while you are on camera delivering your persuasive speech. Check to confirm that the link to your recording is a shareable link that works!

Week 8 Assignment
Presentation 4 Impromptu Speech
Your last presentation is a short speech (2 to 4 minutes) that should demonstrate your skill in public speaking. Presentational aids are optional for this speech but are not required.
You may use this opportunity to try using the impromptu delivery style rather than the extemporaneous. There will be many moments in your work career, starting with the actual job interview, where critical thinking on one’s feet will be required. The impromptu delivery style is good practice for these moments when you are asked to report at a meeting or have to speak spontaneously about work experience or what you can contribute to a certain company, position, team, and so forth. Impromptu speaking requires the same skills of organization that you would use in an extemporaneous speech, but most of it is delivered with little or no opportunity for practice ahead of time.
Your Impromptu Speech is one of the special occasion speeches that you have learned about this week—a commemorative speech. In your commemorative speech, reflect on your achievement in this public speaking class, pay tribute to the support and collaboration among classmates and the instructor that you experienced, and talk about what you have learned about public speaking and the progress you have made toward becoming a more confident public speaker. Tell us your next steps for continuous public speaking improvement.
Try to relax and have fun with this speech. It’s the last one, and you have come a long way; show what you can do. Remember to maintain eye contact without reading the Impromptu Speech to the audience.
No outline is required for this speech.
Watch this video to learn the tools you need to present a well-organized, confident Impromptu Speech.
Video Recording Options: Kaltura Capture (under My Media) is recommended for recording and submitting your on-camera commemorative speech. A YouTube video recording is another option. Although submitting a cell phone video is acceptable, it is not ideal unless the recording is high quality. Check to confirm that the link to your recording is a shareable link that works!
Review your speech to ensure that it meets the grading rubric criteria.
