What are the three main characteristics of delivery style that contribute positively to your speech? How do they differ? Do you consider any more important than others?

What will be an ideal response?

- A delivery style that contributes positively to the overall effect of a speech (1) seems natural and uncontrived; (2) helps the audience to listen to, understand, remember, and act on the speech; and (3) builds a sense of community between speaker and audience.
- Each characteristic contributes something distinct to the speech; for example, a speaker may appear natural but disorganized.
- The comparison might reference earlier text material, such as the importance of structure, or identify that different elements of delivery style are more important for different types of speeches. For example, organization may be less important in a ceremonial speech but more important for an informational speech.
