Preview and Review of Main Points

Hello Class! Here is a tip for the coming speech....

As we have been doing all semester, please make sure you are PREVIEWING and REVIEWING your main points. This means that you should PREVIEW your three main points in your introduction, and you should subsequently REVIEW your main points in your conclusion.

Previewing informs you audience of where you are going in your speech. When you review your main points, it summarizes what have just covered. As I have mentioned before, this may seem redundant or even unnecessary. However, redundancy helps your audience to remember/retain the information you have presented.

Look for more speech tips throughout the day tomorrow at various times.
