Comments from what I submitted for the first week speech: CAN YOU PLEASE FIX IT
Your outline is a little sparse and unclear about topics and supporting information. Be sure to stick to the provided templates for future outlines. I’m looking forward to hearing more about your career in the medical field with the Navy, let me know if you have any questions or want to bounce any ideas around.
Here’s a few things to keep in mind for your speech:
1. Be sure to have your camera at eye level and follow the rubric. You can sit or stand for this speech. Go with whichever you need to practice for any public speaking you know you’ll need to do outside of class.Â
2. Try to light yourself well from the front without bright lights or sunny windows behind you and keep your background as neutral as possible.Â
3. Make sure your microphone input is adjusted properly so that we can hear you well without distorting or being too quiet.Â
4. Try to condense your outline down to only the key points you may need to occasionally glance at. The last thing we want is to just read straight from a script.Â
5. Practice your speech a few times before your final recording… and you’ll do great! Let me know if you have any questions or would like more detailed feedback.

TIPS FOR PASSING THIS COURSE
Purpose Statement: To inform my audience on what it would take to pass this speech course with high marks.
Thesis Statement: In order to pass this course, it will take time management, attention to details, and a positive attitude.
Introduction
Attention Getter: You are not nervous, you are excited!
Introduce Yourself & State Your Credibility: My name is Dr. Speech, and this is what I tell all of my speech students who say they are nervous about giving their speeches.
Overview of Main Points: I am here to tell you how passing this course is possible if you have time management skills, pay attention to details, and maintain a positive attitude.
Transition: Let’s start with time management skills.
I There is no way you can pass any class if you are not able to manage your time well.
A. According to the article “How to Manage Time with 10 Tips That Work†found on the Entrepreneur website, “before you can even begin to manage time, you must learn what time is†(Mathews, Debolt, & Percival, 2017).
B. If you have issues making the required deadlines, you should reach out to your instructor immediately.
Transition: Having time management skills is great but it also helps to have an eye for details.
II Paying attention to the details can save you a lot of headache in the end.
A. Use the rubric to be sure you are meeting the necessary requirements.
B. Use the feedback you are given to help you improve with each speech delivery.
Transition: While you are paying attention to the details, you have to maintain a positive attitude.
III You have to maintain a positive attitude to get through things that are new or difficult to you.
A. According to the Book of Lists, published in 1977, public speaking was the number one fear (Wallechinsky, Wallace, & Wallace, 1978). In many cases, this is still the number one fear over death.
B. Negative thoughts equal negative actions.
Transition: With your positive attitude you can do it but if you add those other two suggestions, you can do almost anything!
Conclusion:
You can pass this course if you can manage your time, pay attention to details, and maintain a positive attitude. You might think you are nervous when giving a speech, but in actuality you are excited. So come on and give it your all with your next speech!

and advantages, disadvantages of a career in the military and medical field.
