  1. Informative Speeches Panther Prep (Public Speaking) North Central High School

  2. Informing • There are several different types of sub-speeches that fall under the category of “informative speeches”. • Descriptive Speeches • Expository Speeches • Analysis/Evaluation Speeches • Explication Speeches • Compare and Contrast Speeches

  3. Descriptive & Expository Speeches • Descriptive Speeches • Detail oriented speeches that call the audience to envision a person, place, thing or event that they are not familiar with. • EXAMPLE: “Describe the 9/11.” “Tell your friends about your trip to Rome.” • Expository Speeches • Speech designed to explain a process, idea, belief, or concept. (These are less concrete and can be more difficult.) • EXAMPLE: “Explain your company’s benefits package.” “Explain the process of Photosynthesis.”

  4. Analysis & Explication Speeches • Analysis/Evaluation Speeches • These speeches take a concept or situation and break it down into its parts. • EXAMPLE: “Why Iraq is a threat to the U.S.” “How government works.” • Explication Speeches • These speeches analyze or explain what is obscure or implied. • EXAMPLE: “The fault of the anti-gay rights argument.” “Why J-lo did that.”

  5. Compare and Contrast Speeches • These speeches should pit opposing ideas, information or products against each other in a factual/nonbiased way. • EXAMPLE: “Consumer Reports says that “Brawny’ is the best paper towel on the market.” “DeVry University as it compares to other universities.” • WARNING!!! In an informative speech, the speaker should NEVER advocate the use of or participation in the subject because he/she is then delivering a persuasive speech.
