Speech Buddy videos

This weeks videos were helpful in many ways for improving performance of speech delivery. In particular what I learned that could be helpful in my speech was the different types of supporting materials to use. By using a variety of supporting materials it will keep the speech interesting and lend further credibility to the topic, and to me as the speaker. If I only have one source or only use one method of supportive materials, I may not appear to have fully researched the topic and might leave my audience wondering if there is more to the subject then what I have presented. In order to have a successful speech where the audience can feel fully informed at the end, I must be able to incorporate a variety of support materials. It is also important not to overload the audience with only facts, or statistics, or examples; the blend of these types of supporting materials will keep the speech flowing better and not overwhelm or turn off the audience.
