PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS CLOSELY! IT REQUIRES 3 PAGES, NOT SLIDES.
CREATE AT LEAST THREE MAIN POINTS AND BE VERY INFORMATIVE AND ELABORATE ON EACH POINT.
The introduction to the informative speech should gain attention, orient the audience by stating the topic, offer a reason for listening, and preview the body of the speech.
The body of the informative speech must contain 2-5 main points using patterns of organization covered in the textbook; other patterns of organization must have prior approval by the instructor. Each main point must be well supported by 2-5 1st-order sub-points (what the textbook calls subpoints) designed to illustrate the main points (examples, illustrations, facts, quotations, etc.) Don’t overload the audience with information. Move from simple to complex ideas. Move from familiar to unfamiliar ideas. Define your terms.
The conclusion of the informative speech should restate or summarize the main points and communicate a sense of finality (verbally or nonverbally indicate that you have finished talking). You may end the speech with a story or quotation.
Transitions between major sections of the informative speech (introduction, body, conclusion) and the main points should be carefully planned and used while delivering the speech. Use transitions to move the audiences attention from section to section and from main point to main point in the body of the speech.
You should have at least 5 outside sources of information for the speech. You may use written sources (e.g., books, magazines, newspapers), credible online sources, and personal interview. MUST BE IN APA FORMAT!!!!!
