Lesson 13 – Transitions and Conclusions

The Introduction & The Body Practice
We practiced The Introduction and The Body parts of our speech with our classmates. We gave and received feedback using the handouts.


Transitions

We looked at transitions and sequencers (pp. 75 & 77-78).


The Conclusion
We looked at the Speaking of Speech textbook and learned about The Conclusion (p. 88).

Use the past tense to remind us what you told us in the overview slide using the future tense. Also, include one focus point (the best example or number).

For your conclusion slide, you can copy and paste your overview slide. It is OK to include your focus points on your slide. However, try to use fewer words on the slide than what you say. Also, animate each main point and focus point separately. If you would like a challenge, don't write your focus points on your slide. Instead, remember them and say them.

In addition to the focus point for each point of your conclusion, I suggest a final focus point. You can introduce your final focus point with these words …

If you remember only one thing from my presentation, please remember that …

After that, show your title slide and finish with Thank you! (do not say "I'm finished.").


This is a powerful way to end your conclusion.

Continue building your Final Speech. 

• Each main point should have transitions to the next point. Use both past and future and statement and rhetorical question patterns.
• Prepare and practice your conclusion.
• Use previous skills (posture, eye contact, voice inflection, CRAP, IEE, etc…). You should plan AND practice these.
• Practice your speech several times to be smooth.

Continue building your Final Speech. 

• Prepare four slides: Title, What, Why, and Overview for your Introduction.

• Prepare slides for your main points.
• You will have three main points.
• Each main point should have evidence. Use both numbers and examples.

Your slides should be photographs from your camera or phone. Use full-sized images. You can only use text to label your ingredients.

There is a 3-minute time limit for your presentation. Be sure to practice many times with your gestures and voice inflection! Watch the DVD again for a good example.

Lesson – Eye Contact

Eye Contact Practice
In this lesson, we practiced eye contact during the speech and watched a demo of our next speech.

Speaking of Speech
We looked at a model Informative Speech on the DVD. Next week you will give an Informative Speech about your hometown or any city. 








Presentation Slides
You have only three choices for software for most presentations:

1. Apple Keynote
2. Microsoft Powerpoint
3. Google Slides

Do not use Libre Office. Keynote is the best choice, but if you don't want to spend money, I recommend Google Slides. 

However, for next week's presentation, you MUST use Google Slides. 


Next Week
You need to share your slides with me before you come to class next week.

1. Go to Google Drive.
2. From the New button on the top left, choose Google Slides.
3. Give the title your full name + OP03 + Informative Speech (eg. Taro Suzuki OP03 Informative Speech).
4. Click the Share button and write my Gmail address. (You can continue to make changes after you share.)
5. Finish your slides before class and be ready to present. Due 4/23 23:59. You can share your slides now and continue working on them until the class.
6. Practice, practice, practice!

Your slides should be full slide photographs of your city. The best photographs are your own photographs from your camera or smart phone. If you cannot get your photos yourself, get large photos from Google Images.


Your slideshow should have at least 8 slides:

• A title slide with the name of your hometown and your name. (1 slide)
• An overview slide with your four points (text). (1 slide)
• One (or more) slides for each point. (4 or more slides)
• Summary slide with your four points (images). (1 slide)
• Title slide as your final slide. (1 slide)

Watch Lisa Suzuki's Informative Speech on the DVD again. Practice with your slides many times to be smooth at it. Practice makes perfect! 

Download the Google Slides app for your smartphone and log in. Use your smartphone to present next week.


Your slides should be full-sized slides photographs of your city. The best photographs are your own photographs from your camera or smartphone. If you cannot get your photos yourself, get large (1024x768) photos from Google Images.

Your slideshow should have at least 8 slides:

• A title slide with the name of your hometown and your name. (1 slide)
• An overview slide with your four points (text). (1 slide)
