Week 9 Discussion 2
According to the book, the components that go into an introduction are an attention getter, purpose, thesis, credibility, and a preview of the main points you are going to talk about. At the moment, I do not know what my attention getter is going to be but for the informative speech I plan on coming up with a creative attention getter that will make my audience want to listen to what I plan on saying. The components that go into a conclusion, according to the book, are a review of the main points, reinforce my purpose, and then provide closure. In the conclusion, I will be sure to review my main points and the purpose of my speech.

Hey.
ReplyDeleteI also have to be sure to review my main points and the purpose of my speech since during our first speech I felt rushed and I felt like I left out a lot of information. For your attention getter I think a good one would be saying something interesting or unique about your topic. That way you will have your audience’s attention because of the interesting fact. I hope that your topic is easier to talk about without turning it into a persuasive speech because I have a feeling that most of our speeches will turn out to either be the speaker taking a side or the speaker persuading the audience to a side.
