Review the following Interactive Videos: 9.1, 9.2, 13.1A, 13.1B and "Use It" 13.1

I learned that the introduction has to be good in order for the audience to stay focused on you. I liked Erin’s introduction, she talked about an accident and death that follows. Her voice was really stern and she looked really serious. Her conclusion didn’t capture my attention as well as Janine’s though. I though Janine’s recapping of her main points had more closure than Erin’s. I really liked Katharine’s video, it was interesting. I only knew that kosher was a Jewish thing but the way they do things are fascinating. I learned to look for interesting facts and to have a strong introduction and conclusion.

  1. I also agree that the introduction has to be solid. After it is your first impression when it comes to your speech and you want to give a good first impression. I also agree that Erin’s conclusion was not the greatest but I felt that it was in a way slowly giving out to signal a clear conclusion. I was never convinced that an introduction with a stat was a great thing but an interesting fact on the other hand sounds a bit better, at least to me. One thing that I learned was that the intro and conclusion have to be solid, they have to complement each other.
