TED talks analysis

  TED talks are organized and highly-vetted public speeches that give normal people—people like you and me— a chance to spread their message to the world. Visit TED.com and watch several TED speakers. Note that you can sort by topic, speaker, and a host of other criteria. You can watch any TED talk you wish except a TED talk where the speaker is not face-to-face with the audience (such as voice overs of a PowerPoint presentation). It’s important you’re able to view the nonverbal communication signals of the speaker. If you’re looking a more concentrated list, you might also wish to visit this link, which highlights the 25 most popular TED talks of all time. After watching a TED talk, write a short 300-500 word (1.5-2 page) analysis of that talk. Please ensure that you cite the talk you watched in appropriate APA formatting. You should answer the following questions in your analysis: · What is the topic and who is the speaker? · How does the speaker get the audience’s attention in the introduction? · What are the main points of the talk? Are they easily identifiable? · What techniques of delivery does the speaker use effectively (e.g., emotion, vivid language, nonverbals, humor, etc.)? Please be sure to provide examples. · How does the speaker conclude the speech? Does it echo the themes in the introduction and “tie the knot” or does it go in a different direction? · Is the speech effective? Did it leave an impact on you? Tell us why or why not. · What did you learn about speech delivery after listening to this speech? What did you learn about speech delivery after listening to this speech?
