• Notecards​
• Notecards allowed for all speeches​
• Should not have entire speech written down​
• Focus on key concepts​

Speaking Extemporaneously

Stop by during student hours for extra practice

Time your speech to make sure you are within the time limit

Ask peers, instructor, friends, and family members for feedback

Rehearse your speech out loud to get a feel for your presentation

Rehearsing Your Speech

The first time that you give your speech should NOT be when you are presenting in front of the class. The students who do the best on their speeches are the ones who practice their speech a few times before they present.

• Plant feet​
• Smile to audience​
• Gesture naturally​
• Establish and maintain eye contact​
• Speak expressively​
• Take steps to reduce nervousness

Presenting Your Speech

• Follow along as we go through each part of the sample self-introduction speech on Blackboard.
• While listening, take note of the content, not the delivery, of the speech​.
• We will stop after each section for you to discuss some questions with the person next to you.
• After talking with your partner for a few minutes, be prepared to share your thoughts with the class.

Example Speech

3. How does the speaker conclude? Does the conclusion reinforce the central theme of the speech?

2. How clearly is the body of the speech organized? What does the speaker do to help listeners follow the progression of ideas?

Discussion Questions

1. How does the introduction gain the attention of the audience? How does the introduction introduce the subject of the speech? How does the introduction preview the main points to be discussed in the body?
