Task 6
Perception is important when we give a speech, and our perceptions change frequently. For example, how did you view yourself in your first and second speeches? Do you have a different perception of yourself within your speeches now that we are in week 6? Do you feel more confident in your presentations? On-ground students, did you come to class on the first and second days and have certain perceptions about the people around you? Has that changed now that you have heard a few of their speeches?
Read from your textbook “Chapter 2: Communication and Perception”
Revisit your textbook “Chapter 10: Delivering a Speech”
Changing your perception of others and yourself is a constant process, and it is based on interactions and experiences you have.
One part of the perception process that we don’t always get in interpersonal communication is a redo. However, in this class, you do! Revision is a necessary step in the writing process, including speech writing.
You have now received feedback from your instructor on 5 speeches. Take the feedback he or she has given you along the way. Add that feedback to your own perceptions about your past speeches and apply them. Choose one speech from weeks 1-5 to revise and re-present.
Create a file folder for this week titled with your name and Task 6.
Place the following items in the file folder:
A powerPoint presentation that you will use in this week’s lesson (you may start from scratch or you may choose to revise the PowerPoint you already created)
All images that you will use.
An APA formatted outline that contains (1) the introduction to your presentation, (2) list of items you plan to change about your previous speech and why, and (3) the conclusion to your presentation. Again, you may start from the beginning with this revision or you may revise what you already have.
Zip the file folder and then upload your work to Moodle.
On-ground students – your assignment is due before you report to class.
