I believe that peers or any type of audience can go ahead and analyze the content that is being presented and evaluate it to see if the information that is being provided is educational and informative as well as acknowledgeable and convincing at the end. At the end, when a presenter has finished presenting personally I believe it’s important that you have left your peers as well as your overall audience with possible information on the topic that they will acknowledge and most importantly learn from it. Also, acknowledging what is going to be discussed needs to match the age and audiences that you tend to aim. Another method also includes being able to see if the presenter is ready to go and presents personality as well as information that is being presented is brought out clearly and close the presentation with proper conclusions and acknowledgeable

The best speaker that I have ever heard is Bishop TD Jakes. Jakes is a Preacher, father, husband, teacher, very successful business man, movie producer and launched a syndicated talk show. There are several reasons why I believe that he is one of the best speakers that I have ever heard. One reason is that he is a man of great integrity. Although he is fallible his character speaks volume without him even uttering a word. Another reason he is such a prolific speaker is because of his ability to be led by his faith and thinks outside the box consequently producing a greater but new learning experience. George Bush describes TD Jakes as a kind man who puts faith into action. I am sure that he has attended many communication classes. However

Whenever giving a presentation it is important to properly communicate with your audience. In order for a presentation to be affective, the speaker must know who they are presenting to in order to inform, persuade, or entertain them. In order to be successful in getting your message across it benefits the speaker to have information about their guest such as their interest, likes and dislikes. You never want to go into a situation unaware of who your audience is in order to keep them interested.

Communication has always been important, from the ability to communicate within our bodies via nerve signals, to the online communications that keep us up to date with the trending news and other social aspects like interactions with relatives and friends, over programs like facebook.

CITE #14 &#11, stress the importance of active listening during the meeting, advising that during the presentation, attention must be given to the body language, tone and inflection of all involved parties as they account for 93% of communication, while the verbal content alone accounts for 7%; while CITE #13 recommends increasing the odds of a successful oral presentation by making eye contact with the audience, and speaking clearly and enthusiastically with a varied rate.

Conversation analysis refers to a model of analyzing spoken communication or interactions for the determination of how language develops within social contexts. It is useful in understanding interactions with classroom settings, courtrooms and in interviews (Sidnell, 2011). Conversation analysis provides a framework for assessing specific aspects of an oral interaction, such as opening and closing, topic management, adjacency pairs, feedback, preference organization, turn-taking and repair. Opening and closing is a crucial element of a conversation as it influences the starting and finishing of oral interactions. Notably, different cultures have divergent approaches to opening and closing conversations. Antaki (2011) illustrates that the place of the conversation also influences the nature of opening and closing statements. For instance, communication across online platforms, including social media networks have different opening and closing approaches when compared to face-to-face communication. Sidnell (2011) indicates that

It is observed in the first video that the presenter failed to wear an appropriate attire to deliver the speech, he had his shirt wide opened, showing a little respect for the people attending his speech, differencing from the second video where the speaker was properly dressed. The verbal communication also failed at the beginning and through the whole presentation of the first example, he wrongly begins with an “ok” denoting in advance the lack of commitment and practice on how to begin a presentation, also hesitating when mentioning some words related to the chili peppers speech reinforcing the theory that he did not prepared to deliver the speech, pronunciation and articulation of the words is something that can make a difference. The opposite situation occurs in the second video, where the presenter catches the attention of the listeners since the beginning starting with a strong and attracting introduction, and through the rest of the presentation he shows solid communication skills, with fluent vocabulary and almost perfect diction.
