This document provides guidance on giving speeches about objects versus processes. Speeches about objects focus on tangible things that can be seen, heard, tasted, or touched, and aim to help audiences understand and remember information. They include descriptions, demonstrations, and details. Due to time constraints, these speeches provide a focused discussion of some aspect of the topic. Speeches about processes focus on sequences of steps that produce an end result, helping audiences understand how something is done, made, or works. They are divided into chronological/sequential or topical/categorical sections and use examples to illustrate processes like pasteurization or borrowing books from a library.
