Title: Zoos should be banned Evaluator: Juyeon Oh Date 31st May 2017.
1.Speech Value (Interesting, meaningful to audience) 1 The topic was interesting and informative to the audience as the issue of animal rights is getting more attention by the people around the world thesedays.
2. Preparation (research, rehearsal) 1 I could clearly tell that she spent a lot of time putting the presentation together because she had cue cards and a youtube clip that displayed the inhumane scenes behind the zoos that was interesting.
3. Organization (Logical, clear) 1 She had clear structures and they were evident throughout the speech. They had a logical flow and the transitions were well done.
4. Opening (Attention-getting, led into topic) She opened her speech by asking a question to to the audience about where their favourite places are, to visit. She said the zoo, when the title held the opposite stance. So it naturally grabbed the audience's attention. She used the comparative method to show a clear contrast for effective delivery.
5. Body (Flowed smoothly, appropriate support material) 1 She showed a youtube clip that showed the harsh environment which the animals were exposed to behind the scenes. This provided a comparison to the ones that people would normally imagine. Then she went on to explaining the 3 reasons why zoos should be abolished. The first reason was that the animals die prematurely in zoos, meaning their life expectancy gets shortened. She provided the related numbers to it. She also introduced a new term called 'zoochosis' a typical illness that the animals get when they live in the zoo. Also she claims that they should not be used for entertainment. After presenting her reasons, she provided some possible solutions to the problem. The main solution is to stop going to the zoos and saying the same to the people around.
6. Conclusion (Effective) She finished off by once again urging the audience to stop going to the zoos because by doing so, it is the most effective way for the zoos to close down. She reminded us that few minutes of our entertainment causes pain for the animals. It was a good wrap up.
7. Transition 1 She used conjunctions in her speech to provide a clear movement between the bodies. She introduced a problem with the zoos, and the reasons behind, then she moved on to the possible solutions.
What could the speaker have done differently to make the speech more effective? She showed a youtube clip in the middle of her speech and she just left it to be played. However, it would have been better on a personal note, if she explained the situation even if it may be brief to provide a clearer explanation to the audience. This is because some may not grasp the situation. But apart from that, it was a really well prepared speech.
What did you like about the presentation? I liked her organization and her concrete statements. She had a firm stance and had very distinct reasons behind it to really persuade the audience. Also, she had a organization that was neatly done so that the listeners would feel comfortable throughout the speech. The tone and the pace of her voice were also good although her voice could have been slightly louder, but that is not a big problem. Overall, the topic was interesting and it was a truly well done speech! Thank you for sharing it with us.

1.Speech Value (Interesting, meaningful to audience) 1 The Overall Topic was interesting to follow. When it comes to animal rights i could say that a lot of non-profit organizations are working hard in order to protect animals.
2. Preparation (research, rehearsal) 1 From each video i could distinguish that she had improved a lot her good pronunciation proves that she had practiced a lot. Added to that using note cards it's a good move and better than reading from a big paper (script). Showing a video also is a good way to convince the audience about her point of view.
3. Organization (Logical, clear) 1 Her speech structure was clear to me . also, i could clearly perceive the transitions and from an idea to another.
4. Opening (Attention-getting, led into topic) Asking a question in the opening is the best way to grab the audience's attention. I usually find it a smart way to build a direct connection with my audience.
5. Body (Flowed smoothly, appropriate support material) 2 She kicked off her body part by showing a video and then she was giving her own reasons of why zoos should be abolished. From my perspective she could switch the video by a fact or showing a graph , I agree to the extent that showing a video visually is good to convince the audience but it's somehow distract me. I love the way she showed the 3 reasons and then she gave solutions.
6. Conclusion (Effective) 1 i like the way she is wrapping up by restating again her point of view . I could see she had learnt a a lot from class and from our book
7. Transition 2 I wish if she could use more conjunctions that will enrich her speech.
What could the speaker have done differently to make the speech more effective? As i said rather than showing a video she could for example provide a statistics, facts or she could even talk about her own experience . It's better than showing a video i think because it was somehow distracting.
What did you like about the presentation? I Like the way she is trying to improve from the latest presentations and her accent is improving as well . The topic is interesting and the way she presented was super nice. her speech organization was clear and understandable . Thank you for sharing it with us and good luck
