Discussion question response 12
Whether it is an essay or a speech I always have trouble starting the introduction. The first section in chapter nine was help full for me. The green box that separated the parts was the most helpful. Make each box one or two sentences and there you have a halfway descent introduction. I really liked the tips that they gave you in the getting the audience’s attention section. From stats to stories and even jokes got me thinking, and helped me start my intro. The other thing that helped was the establishing credibility section. It always thought that establishing credibility was like bragging but this section really cleared it up. It is not really bragging but showing that I know what I am talking about.

Hello Fish! Do you know exactly how you are going to use each of the required components for the intro and conclusion? Also, from hearing past speeches, what were the most effective attention getters you noticed? Did you notice any highly effective conclusions? :)
ReplyDeleteHow are you going to build your credibility at the start of the speech and throughout?
