Resist the urge to stereotype, but do give consideration to the possible experiences, beliefs, and backgrounds of your audience.]]> 2021-02-18 18:12:17 UTC https://padlet.com/WakeTechCandT/1hq3143lur4diih3/wish/1216416215 Connect! WakeTechCandT https://padlet.com/WakeTechCandT/1hq3143lur4diih3/wish/1216443309 What does your audience have in common? Find a point of connection that all (or almost all) of your audience can relate to or identify with. Think about common human emotions or experiences. Comedy often involves common experiences, like autocorrect fails.]]> 2021-02-18 18:18:27 UTC https://padlet.com/WakeTechCandT/1hq3143lur4diih3/wish/1216443309 Feedback WakeTechCandT https://padlet.com/WakeTechCandT/1hq3143lur4diih3/wish/1216462624 You will be getting experience in this course with both getting feedback and giving feedback. For the informative and persuasive speeches, you will complete a peer review of at least three of your classmates' speeches. For all three of your own speeches, I'll provide you with feedback and suggestions for improvement. ]]> 2021-02-18 18:22:40 UTC https://padlet.com/WakeTechCandT/1hq3143lur4diih3/wish/1216462624 Listening WakeTechCandT https://padlet.com/WakeTechCandT/1hq3143lur4diih3/wish/1216485142 This lesson has some important and helpful points to keep in mind when you are listening to a speaker. Think about how you can apply these as you listen to speakers in our class. Here is my top tip: Put away your cell phone or any device that might be distracting! ]]> 2021-02-18 18:27:48 UTC https://padlet.com/WakeTechCandT/1hq3143lur4diih3/wish/1216485142 Evaluating Speeches WakeTechCandT https://padlet.com/WakeTechCandT/1hq3143lur4diih3/wish/1216507041 Remember:
Evaluate the speech, not the speaker. Avoid personal attacks or judgements. Don't just criticize, make suggestions for improvements.
Consider these aspects of the speech:
  • Organization
  • Support or Evidence
  • Analysis
  • Language
  • Verbal and Nonverbal Delivery
You can find more about each of these aspects in the text.
