It's time to "speak up" #6

So here we go again. Next performance by Dana. Her topic was "Body of the speech".



The next issue which is very important to discuss is the body of the speech. Now I'm going to observe and evaluate Dana's speech.

1. Introduction

What technique(s) was used in the introduction? 
At the very beginning Dana used rhetorical question as a attention-getter. 

Any link-element? 
After the rhetorical question Dana made a smooth transition to the thesis of her speech where she reasoned about the importance of the body.

Was the thesis statement given? 
Yes, I think it's the thesis of Dana's speech: "The body of the speech is where you offer the evidence to support your main message. An effective public speaker will use this opportunity to deliver a powerful speech that will be memorable for the audience."

How effective was the introduction? 
Very effective          Average          Not effective         Max 10 pts
10  9                     7  6  5               4  3  2  1                     8

2. Body

How well structured was the information presented?

  10           8                       7    6   5    4             3  2  1

What organizational structure was used in the body of the speech? 
Dana used outlining and presentation to support her speech and to make it more understandable.

How understandable was the information (was it clearly explained)?
Very good           Had some problems         Had major problems
10   9   8                  7   6   5   4                          3   2   1

Quality of point-support (appropriateness, completeness, variety)

10   9             7   6   5                 4   3   2   1

Was it coherent?

Max 10 pts      -      8 pts


3. Conclusion

-What technique(s) was used in the conclusion? 
Summarizing the speech, Dana showed again the importance of the body and the correct structure of it to the audience.

-Were all the steps followed (summary, action, emotional appeal?) 
Almost steps were followed. 

-How effective was the conclusion?
Very effective         Some conclusion        None
10   9   8                     7   6   5   4             3   2   1

Total points: 25 
Given points: 30
