Judging IE
Speeches Step
2: What kinds of comments can I make to help the speakers? ·
Give ideas for
their introductions: “You need to shorten the introduction and
get to your thesis sooner.” “You need a more interesting beginning to
your speech.” ·
Give ideas for the
body of their speeches: “You need more interesting stories,
examples, and personal experiences to liven up the speech.” “Your points need to more clearly support
your thesis.” “You need more documentation that this is a
problem beyond one or two examples.” In Expos/Informative Speaking: “Your visual
aids look good but the font size is too tiny—it is hard to read—make it
larger.” ·
Give ideas for their
conclusion: “Your conclusion was too abrupt-develop it
more so we better understand your argument.” ·
In Extemp-Impromptu, give ideas for use of preparation time: “You need to choose your topic sooner so that
you have more time to present the speech.” “You need more citations for your points—work
on your extemp file on election polls.” ·
Give ideas for
speaking more effectively. “You should speak more clearly; it was hard
to understand you.” “You should speak less loudly.” “You need more vocal variety. You tend to go
into a set pattern with your voice; instead, work to convey the meaning of
what you are saying with how you say it.” Go to Step 3: How to Rate and Rank the Speakers --users of this page, ignore these
