Informative Speech On Atrioventricular Canal Defect '
In my Speech 1 class, the class delivered informative speeches based on the topics students chose. Also, the class was assigned to do a peer evaluation and the student I had to evaluate was Emily. The specific purpose statement for Emily’s speech was “To inform my audience about Atrioventricular Canal Defect”, and her method of organization seemed to be topical, which is a good when informing your audience about a health problem. Also, the main points of her speech included: what is atrioventricular canal defect, what are the symptoms, and what are the treatment options. Although Emily’s speech had many strengths and weakness when it came to the content and delivery of her speech, overall she did a great job. Emily had numerous strengths

    My fellow student Chris gave a well-organized and coherently structured speech that followed the guidelines imparted to us in our textbooks. The use of vivid connectives and transitional sentences enabled his speech to flow rather smoothly. Overall he was very successful in conveying his message on smartphones to the audience. Like many of my other classmates, the only problems I picked up on were not in content of the oratory but in rapidity and articulacy – two things than can be attributed to presentation-day jitters.…

    Complete atrioventricular canal defect (CAVC) is a heart condition in which there is a large hole in the center of the heart and only one heart valve. Normally, the heart is divided into four chambers, and there is one valve on each side of the heart. The chambers on the right side of the heart receive blood from the body and pump it to the lungs where the blood gets oxygen. The chambers on the left side of the heart get the oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pump it back out to the body. In CAVC, the blood in the chambers mix, and the heart valve may not close tightly. This makes the heart work much harder than normal.…

    I like when videos in the class related to topic and helps to understand it, if it has comedy in to in, even better. Renee had in class activity, video and the poem. Combination of those three made her visit even more interacting. Each of the students prefers different learning style. I think our group gained more knowlade from the speech, because Renne used different ways of learning. We had in class activity with five words, the best way to learn for kinesthetic learners. Stand up video on youtube was good for visual learners. Because she covered a few ways to put some information in our heads we were able to get it better. Life examples and motivational speaker background made her speech even more credible.…

    Throughout the course I delivered speeches on Zombies, Coming of Age Traditions around the World, Leukemia, and Volunteering. Surprisingly, I found it quite easy to relate a majority of these topics to my audience which was satisfying. Audience adaptation was a new concept to me and I never really did it in other speeches, but getting a good understanding of the concept made the transition easy. However, the topic I had the hardest time relating to my audience was the Leukemia speech. It was a topic I wanted to do more research on since my mom was diagnosed, but many of my classmates may not have experienced that making it hard for them to adapt. As a result, I did my best to make the speech as interesting as possible. On the other hand, I…

    The speech I selected was Susan Cain- The Power of Introverts. I think the speaker (Susan) was very professional, appealing, confident, and her tone of voice was perfect not too loud or not to low. The speech she was relating to the audience was about introverts and she also wrote a book about Introversion that actually took her seven years to write. She talks about her grandfather; being an introvert and how he could not see people in the eyes when he could talk to them even though he had been in the congregation for sixty- two years. The speaker actually speaks about different events in her life. It seems the audience is really focused on her and she receives a few applauses here and there. The audience is definitely engaged in what the speaker…

    The speaker I chose to critique is a student giving a persuasive speech over bulling. The girl, Stephi, starts off strong by looking at the audience and giving a startling fact. She also speaks very clearly and projects so that everyone will hear her. She uses visual aids to show what she is saying, and it may leave a bigger impact. Stephi also gives a preview of her speech in the introduction and uses transition statements. Then to introduce the first point of her speech she returned to two questions in her introduction which was a nice tie in. That was Stephi did well though, but seeing as she is a high school student this may be her first speech.…

    What is the Cardiothoracic specialty? It consists of being specialized in surgical procedures of the heart, lungs, esophagus, and other organs in the chest (What Is a Cardiothoracic Surgeon?). The history of Cardiothoracic surgery goes way back to the 19th century. The first successful heart surgery took place by Dr. Ludwig Rehn, who repaired a stab wound to the right ventricle. Many believed this was the beginning of cardiac surgery. However, one of the most prominent surgeons of that time, Theodor Billroth, pronounced that "A surgeon who would attempt such an operation [cardiac suture] should lose the respect of his colleagues. There were many unsuccessful sutures that occurred, but Rehn accomplished the “impossible” that same year. (Principles and Practice: History of cardiac surgery and anesthesia). Many new discoveries with unfold in the medical field concerning cardiothoracics and it will eventually become more advanced. Plus, surgeons will be able to do things they didn't think were able to be accomplished. In the following years, Cardiothoracic surgery will change significantly and save many more lives.…
