I have to write a evaluation on president Obamas speech on 1/27/10. THis speech is for Public speaking class.
THis is what i have done.
I will critically evaluate every aspect of the speech that the President made especially his Delivery, Audience, Movements, Eye Contact, Posture, Diction, Tone, and Message.
From the beginning President Barack Obama had a stray face which clearly projected how series and important this speech was. The president speech was organized and message was clear even though the audience was impatient and continously interrupted.
Through out the speech Presedent maintained what appears like eye contact because some say that he was reading a tellor promter. However wether this was the case or not he mainted eye contact.
Message: The message was Coherent and clear mainly because it painted a clear picture as to where and how he wants to lead us. This speech had many proposals for job creation and federal deficit reduction.
First sentence: "Obama's" should have an apostrophe. "Speaking" should be capitalized (class title).
Second paragraph:
"Delivery, Audience, Movements, Eye Contact, Posture, Diction, Tone, and Message." The words should not be capitalized. They are general descriptive (common) nouns.
I do not know what you mean by a "stray face".
Next sentence: president's, not president.
The speech was interrupted often, not the audience.
Next sentence: "Throughout" is one word. "Appears" should not be present tense. "Teleprompter" is misspelled.
Next sentence: "Wether" is misspelled.
"mainted" is not a word.
Last paragraph:
"Coherent" should not be capitalized.
Overall, the evaluation you have written on President Obama's speech is a good start. Here are a few suggestions to enhance your evaluation:
1. Delivery: Instead of just mentioning the president's "stray face," you can provide more specific details about his delivery. For example, you can analyze the tempo, volume, and rhythm of his speech. Did his delivery enhance or detract from the effectiveness of his message?
2. Audience: While it is mentioned that the audience was impatient and interrupted, you can delve deeper into their reaction. How did the audience's behavior affect the overall impact of the speech? Did the president effectively address their concerns or manage the interruptions?
3. Movements, Eye Contact, and Posture: You mentioned that the president appeared to maintain eye contact, but it is important to provide more analysis. Did he maintain consistent eye contact with the audience, or did it seem forced? How was his posture and use of movement on the stage? Did it contribute to his overall delivery or distract from it?
4. Diction and Tone: You briefly touched on the president's clear message, but you can expand on the diction and tone he used to convey his ideas. Did he use strong and persuasive language? Did his tone match the seriousness and importance of the speech?
5. Message: While you mentioned that the message was coherent and clear, provide more specific examples from the speech. Which proposals for job creation and federal deficit reduction were particularly impactful? Did the president effectively connect with the audience through his message?
Remember to back up your evaluation with specific examples from the speech. By analyzing these different aspects in more detail, you will provide a more comprehensive and insightful evaluation of President Obama's speech for your public speaking class.
