3. Selecting a Topic
The topic is the focal point of your speech, which can be determined
once you have decided on your purpose. If you are free to decide on a
topic, choose one that interests you. There are various strategies used
in selecting a topic, such as using your personal experiences,
discussing with your family members or friends, freewriting, listing,
asking questions, or semantic webbing.

5. Gathering Data
Data gathering is the stage where you collect ideas, information,
sources, and references relevant or related to your specific topic. This
can be done by visiting the library, browsing the web, observing a
certain phenomenon or event related to your topic, or conducting an
interview or survey. The data you will gather will help make your speech
informative, entertaining, or persuasive.

7. Preparing an Outline
An outline is a hierarchical list that shows the relationship of
your ideas. Experts in the public speaking state that two-thirds of your
speech writing is finished once your outline is ready. A good outline helps
you see that all the ideas are in line with your main idea or message. The
elements of an outline include introduction, body, and conclusion. Write
your outline based on how you want your ideas to develop. Below are
some of the suggested formats.

12. Rehearsing
Rehearsing allows you to identify what works and what does not work
for you and your target audience. Some strategies include reading your
speech aloud, recording your analysis, or giving your peers or coaches
feedback on your delivery. The best thing to remember at this stage is:
"Constant practice makes perfect."
11
LU_Oral Communication in Context_Module 5
For extemporaneous and impromptu speakers, step to
the side occasionally once you have composed
yourself, so you can effectively use your gestures,
make eye contact, and connect more with your
audience.
Practice, practice, practice.
5. Speaking with a podium or lectern
Whatever speaking situation you are in, the most important thing
is you master your speech. You can only do this by continually carrying
out the right practices.
Practice in front of a mirror and observe your delivery with these tools
in mind. Alternatively, you can practice in front of your family, friends,
classmates, or those who have already done public speaking. You can ask
for feedback or seek advice from them.
