INFORMATIVE SPEAKING

Assignment Details: Informative Speaking Instructions

Part I:

In the Informative speech you will inform the class about the topic of your choice. Remember you are teaching not persuading. You should strive to share/present information that we probably do not already know; the more original your topic the more people will want to listen to you. In other words, provide your audience with new and unique information about objects, people, issues, concepts or words. Be careful not to become persuasive in your speech. For example, explain How to live a stress-free life. 

 The goal of the Informative Speech is to explain or describe facts, truths, and principles  in a way that stimulates interest, facilitates understanding, and increases the likelihood of remembering.
