So I'm doing a speech for my Oral Communications (aka Public Speaking) class this upcoming week. We were given the assignment to write an informative speech based on any topic we want. What is mine on on you may ask? Well, I think I'm going to do it on blogging. The three main topics I'm going to be covering are...
1. What a blog is
2. How to start up a blog
3. The benefits and drawbacks are to having a blog
I figure all that will be easy enough to explain. However, we also need two different types of visual aids for our presentations. I figure the first one is easy enough, I can just show the class my blog. But I'm stumped when it comes to a second visual aid. Anyone have any ideas?
A chart would be an example of a visual aid, however I don't think there are any charts I could show that would be all that relevant to blogging.
I hate public speaking with a passion. Unless I am friendly with the audience I get super nervous. Also, for a chart you could show the how many views your blog gets over a specific period of time.
ReplyDeleteYou could show your blog views. If you use adsense then you can show your earnings as an advantage of having a blog too. Or if you've ever gotten spam or hateful comments you can show those as a disadvantage. Either way, good luck with it.
ReplyDeleteI think your presentation will be good!
ReplyDeleteYeah could show your stats, how they've changed since you started and what you've done to change them, etc.
ReplyDeletePsh nice
ReplyDeletesounds like fun :) I'm a professor so I'm used to public speeches :) Sometimes even in front of a hundred and more people.
ReplyDeleteStill a show-off that Dazzling Dezzy....
Deletewell how is me supposed to get new gigs if me doesn't promote and advertise meself? :) Is you jealous, oh, Blue one? :P
DeleteGood idea of showing off your blog, if your gonna show this post, "HELLO CLASS!!"
ReplyDeletei dont mind public speaking, probaly cuase i dont give a single fuck anymore. be sure to mention my blog and things that you shouldnt do or theyll bann you :)
ReplyDeleteI don't like public speaking, get so nervous...
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can show some sort of youtube video related to blogging or something? I always enjoy watching videos during presentations, gives you some type to gather your thoughts in the meantime aswell! This is pretty good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=livzJTIWlmY
ReplyDeleteI love public speaking
ReplyDeleteYou could show different types of blogs, personal and professional for example. Or your blog and an old fashioned paper journal. Your blog and a blog circle, explaining the differences.
ReplyDeleteI love public speak. I like to be in front of a captive audience. Best of luck with it.
Nice chart.
ReplyDeleteyou can use power point chart, or you tube video.
ReplyDeleteif you want and need i will make a you tube video for you.
for example you can see this video which i prepared.

That sounds like it would be a fun thing to present on!
ReplyDeleteThe last chart is very useful. :p
ReplyDeleteHahaha I like that chart! Good luck with the presentation! I'm sure you'll do great :)
ReplyDeleteThat graph is so very useful!
ReplyDeleteShow them your favorite blogs and discuss the differences. Make them believe yours is the best so they will become regular visitors.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this information.
ReplyDeleteAnother suggestion would be to show how people arrive at your blog - what search terms they've used, etc. (If you use statcounter or sitemeter, all these info are practically at your fingertips)
