Components

Elements that go into an Introduction is the attention getter, indication of the purpose and thesis, establish credibility, and the previews of the main points. With the attention getter, its purpose is the grab the audiences attention so they become interested in what we are talking about. People will actually remember an interesting introduction more than the actually body of the speech. By indicating the purpose, thesis, and the preview of the main points, it will give the audience an idea of what you are going to be talking about and what they should look out for. Also by establishing credibility in the beginning of the speech the audience will trust the speaker with their knowledge.

Elements that go into a Conclusion is a review of the main points, reinforce the purpose, and provide closure at the end of the speech. We need to briefly review the main points that were spoken in the body of the speech because it is a way to transition from the body to the conclusion. By doing that it will also let the audience remember what you have talked about. With reinforcing the purpose of your speech it will leave a memorable message in which it tell the audience why your information was important. And after your introduction, the body of your speech, and the conclusion, you need to provide closure in which you leave off a good impression.

I will definitely take in all the ideas and actually use it for my introduction and conclusion of my informative speech so that it will be effective towards my audience.

  1. I like how you stated right in the beginning the elements that go into the introduction and the conclusion because you made it straight to the point for us, readers! I also like that you told what the purpose of the attention getter is and that the audience will remember the introduction probably more than the body of the speech. It's always best to make sure to have the audience remember your speech and your presence. I'm glad you mentioned to provide closure at the end of the conclusion to leave off a good impression, since all speakers should want that!
