1). Speech Buddy: Review Drinking and Light Pollution Videos on the Speech Buddy website in accordance with Chapter 5. Respond to each video. What did the speaker to well? What can you learn from watching these videos?
In the pollution video, Courtney had a well-formulated introduction. She expressed to her audience her purpose and included actions the audience could take to prevent pollution. She spoke clearly and confidently. Inversely, in the drinking video, Matthew’s presentation began a little shaky. He stumbled over some of his words, and referred to his note cards to often. Further along the presentation, Matthew does a good job at presenting the statistics he had gathered. I can’t confess to its accuracy but nonetheless, it did seem logical and it adds credibility to him as a speaker. However, it is my opinion that speech seemed dry. I could imagine loosing interest in his speech. It appeared to me that there were all too much statistics and not enough content. Finally, I feel like he did well in his closing statements. He paraphrased the purpose of his speech, included a bold statement about drinking and drive, and finished by encouraged the audience to practice safe drinking.
