Quiz for Week 5 - Informative Speech Overview

Hi, let's start it!

Which of the following is NOT a listed objective for the informative speech?

At the end of the informative speech, we should be able to:

explain complex topics and evidence appropriately and effectively for an audience.
develop a compelling argumentative case that effectively explains problems and provides appropriate solutions.
respond appropriately to audience, topic, and time constraints.
use delivery to distinguish between key ideas and elaborating detail.
Let's say a speaker ends up delivering a speech that uses only statistics, which ends up boring the audience a bit. This would be ranked poorly on which criterion?
Invention: evidence and explanation. The speaker included appropriate and varied evidence, and used the evidence to explain the topic clearly and effectively.
Arrangement. The speaker arranged the speech in a clear and logical manner, oriented the audience to the topic in the introduction, transitioned between the main parts of the speech, and concluded the speech appropriately and effectively.
Invention: topic, time, and audience. The speaker balanced breadth and depth well in discussion of the topic, and addressed points appropriate for the topic and the audience.
What kind of constraints might you face as an informative speaker? (Multiple choices)
the topic
the audience
the speaker
the occasion and setting
the time allotted

Look at these flawed, speech goals.

[ In my informative speech on the neighborhoods of Seattle, I want to: explain how these neighborhoods formed. mention some of the distinct characteristics of each neighborhood. ]

What’s the biggest problem with these goals?

They focus on an inappropriate topic for an informative speech.
They focus too much on the specific details of the speech
They focus on the speaker’s wants instead of the audience’s needs
