This informative individual speech requires use of visual aids that support the main ideas of your speech.
Choose support such as objects, charts, short video clips, graphs, drawings, maps, etc. This can be

Components of your speech:
Brief but effective attention getter
Fully developed introduction and conclusion
Clearly stated main points (max 2-3 for a short presentation)
Support for each main point (quantitative/statistical, anecdotal, testimony)
Use of signposts (to signal where you are in your speech) and transitions (when you’re moving on to
another thought or point)
Use of at least two (2) academic research sources, identified in speech and orally
cited (as well as in outline) — please use GGU databases whenever possible
Good selection and use of visual aids
