    Describe the basic goals of public speaking.


    Communication Speaking and Listening

    For most people, the obvious goals of public speaking arepolitical victories and support for social movements. Both are common motivesof public speech, but they are not the only recognized intention of publiccommunication. Public speech is often used to define an individual or acommunity. For instance, people may use speeches to describe particularattributes of themselves or of the group to which they belong. People also usespeeches simply to disseminate information. Speeches can be used to inspire otherpeople to action. Famous addresses like the "I Have a Dream" speechof Martin Luther King, Jr. exemplify this kind of speech. Finally, publicspeaking can be used to introduce arguments and to debate controversialquestions in a community. The presidential debates before the general electionare a good example of this.

    Describe how public speaking is a transaction.


    Communication Speaking and Listening

    Speech communication instructors often refer to public speakingas a transaction, or a way of indicating the important active roles of boththe speaker and audience. Too often, people consider speech-giving as a processin which one person actively provides information while another group of peoplepassively receives information. Instead, the ideal public speaking relationshipis one in which the speaker presents a message and the audience presentsfeedback. Even when the audience is not given an opportunity to speak, theyprovide feedback in the form of attention or inattention. By referring topublic speaking as a transaction, instructors emphasize the roles andresponsibilities of both speaker and audience. In general, speech communicationinstructors would define a transaction as any communication in whichinformation passes from speaker to listener and vice versa.

    Discuss the functions of pauses in vocal delivery.


    Communication Speaking and Listening

    Human speech is not just a constant stream of syllables. Theplacement and use of pauses during speech also plays an important role informing meaning. The study of pauses in human speech is a subcategory ofparalinguistics. A short pause is often used to denote the end of a sentence orclause. In many ways, short pauses are used like commas. Long pauses, on theother hand, are more similar to periods or the ends of paragraphs. When a speakertakes a long pause, he or she may be allowing what has been said to sink intothe minds of the audience. Individuals often pause as they search for the rightword. Other times, individuals will insert a slight pause into a sentence tocreate a level of suspense before the thought is finished.

    Describe how nonverbal communication can act as feedback.


    Communication Speaking and Listening

    Although nonverbal communication is typically thought of assupplementary to the words being spoken during a communication event, it canalso serve a vital purpose as feedback. The gestures, eye movements, facialexpressions, and posture of the audience often indicates their level ofengagement more accurately and honestly than verbal criticism. It is verydifficult to hide extreme boredom or rapt attention. The nonverbalcommunication of the audience will indicate their level of interest andacceptance of the message of the speaker. The speaker can then adjust his orher message accordingly.

    Describe how nonverbal communication can enhance spokenwords.


    Communication Speaking and Listening

    Nonverbal communication is the ability to enhance or elaborateon the words of the speaker. In particular, hand gestures and changes in vocalrhythm and volume have the ability to add expressiveness to what is being said.Many times, the gestures and vocal mechanisms of the speaker simply emphasizehis or her message; at other times, however, the speaker may detract from orundermine his or her message with contradictory gestures. Hand gestures andgesticulations have the ability to dramatize a communication event. By givingthe audience things other than words to concentrate on, the speaker engages andentertains them.

    Describe how nonverbal communication can create contradictorycommunications.


    Communication Speaking and Listening

    Sometimes, a speakers nonverbal communication is contradictoryto the words he or she is speaking. This can often create confusion andconflict. For instance, imagine a person is in distress. In some cultures, itis not considered dignified to ask another person for help, even in emergencysituations. So a person in dire need of assistance might be saying he or shedoes not need help, even though observation of nonverbal signs says otherwise.Obviously, this will create conflict in the mind of the audience, who will wantto obey the wishes of the person but will also want to lend assistance to aperson in need. When an individual directly contradicts his or her words withhis or her nonverbal communication, it becomes much more difficult for thecommunication message to be interpreted.

    Describe how nonverbal communication can alter the meaning ofspoken words.


    Communication Speaking and Listening

    At times, the nonverbal communication produced by a speakerwill give a slightly different message than that of the speaker's words. Thisis often the case when a speaker is attempting to introduce an element of ironyinto his or her message. For instance, if at the conclusion of a bad movie onefriend says to another, "Well, that was a good use of my time," butsmiles while saying the words, the other friend might assume that the messageis being delivered with sarcasm. In other words, the speaker does not literallymean that the movie was a good use of time, but rather wishes to indicate thatit was a waste of time. A message is being delivered, but the nonverbalcommunication accompanying the words creates a complex message different thanthe mere words being spoken.
