Demonstration Speech
50 Points
Time Requirement: 5-7 Minutes
For your demonstration speech you will “demonstrate” a procedure or series of steps. You may show how something is made, how something is done, or how something works. But the key is that you must actually demonstrate the procedure, live, in front of the class. Don’t just describe how it should be done – actually do it for us. For example, in explaining how to make a cake you might list the ingredients and equipment involved, and then show the steps (procedure) in making the cake. This is a “how-to” speech; you teach us how to do something. Be sure to explain the process while demonstrating.
You should meet the following general criteria:
1. Conform to the time limit: no less than 5 minutes, no more than 7 (aim for 6 minutes!)
2. Turn in a TYPED outline on the day of your presentation prior to your speech. The outline should contain three main parts (Introduction, Body, Conclusion), which are clearly labeled; see pg. 244-46 in textbook. More information will be given about how to write your outline.
3. Effectively utilize at least one form of audiovisual aid. Be certain that the audiovisual aids for the assignment will focus attention on the relationship between parts. There is no limit on the number of posters, documents, or PowerPoint slides you can use! For this speech, the objects and items that you are using to demonstrate are your visual aids!
4. An important requirement is that the steps must be done in a certain order. If your speech doesn’t meet this requirement, it is probably not a true demonstration speech.
Choosing a topic: How do you pick a topic for a demonstration speech? First, read Chapter 5 “Selecting Topic, Purpose, and Central Idea” in your textbook. I will provide a list of topic ideas to get you thinking about possible topics.
Three Important Criteria in choosing a topic are:
1. The topic should be interesting to you
2. The topic should be within your capability
3. The topic should be suitable to the audience
Conclusion: Must be more than “Thank you” or “that’s about it”. Audience questions are not part of your graded speech; they come after conclusion.
