Public Speaking Reaction Paper

For this assignment, you will follow the same requirements as the mandatory Reaction Paper, but you can analyze a live speaker OR video of someone speaking. I realize it's difficult to find live speaking events, so for extra credit you can use a video or even a TedX talk. Just don't use a video from 10 years ago...try to find something more recent.

Follow the same format as the mandatory paper. This paper is worth 10 extra credit points and can be submitted until the last day of the semester.

Things to include in your paper:
- Speaker's name, date and place of event
- What was the speaker's primary message?
- How did he/she relay that message?
- How did the speaker prove his/her credibility?
- What techniques did the speaker use? (examples, stats, quotes, humor, etc...)
- Was the information organized and easy to follow?
- Did you know what the main points of the speech were?
- Did the speaker have a good delivery style?

o Discuss the speaker's verbal delivery (volume, rate, pitch, etc..)

o Discuss nonverbal characteristics (movement, gesture, eye contact, etc...)
- How did the speaker relate the info to the audience?
- What did the speaker do well?
- How could the speaker have done better?

Feel free to add any comments or other communication ideas that we have discussed in class. This paper should be1-2 FULL pages.
