Empowering in public speeches

Empowering a Girl Child: Public Speech

Empowering a Child at Kole Intellectual Forum, is not mainly limited on skilling them with knowledge in Home Economics such as Garment cutting, hygiene and Sanitation, Child Development, Home Management, and food and Nutrition; but it is also extended to learning how to make public speeches.

And it, the students are individually taught how to first, prepare their speech, by researching on their topic and understanding their audience; second, by structure their speeches with a clear introduction, body, and conclusion; third, writing and refining their script; fourth, practicing their delivery, including vocal control and body language; and finally, getting ready to present by arranging visuals, rehearsing on-site, and preparing to handle questions.

All these are done through a multi-procedure as numerated below, that is to:

Know your audience: Understand their background, interests, and expectations to tailor your content and language.
Define your purpose: Determine the goal of your speech, such as to inform, persuade, or to entertain them.

Research on your topic: Gather information and content that is relevant and engaging.
Select a topic and title: Choose a topic appropriate for the occasion and your audience.

On the other hand, by Structuring and writing the speeches, students are directed to,

Create a clear structure: Organize your speech with a strong opening, logical main points, and a concise closing.
Write their speeches: Draft the speeches, but focus on creating talking points rather than memorizing word-for-word.
Craft a strong introduction: Start with a hook to grab the audience's attention, such as a compelling story, a surprising statistic, or a thought-provoking question.
Include a strong conclusion: Summarize their key points and provide a memorable closing statement.

Meanwhile at practicing and rehearsing

Students are taught on how to practice their speeches: Rehearse multiple times to become comfortable with the material.
Focus on delivery: Work on their vocal control, breathing, and pacing to ensure they are clear and engaging.
Record themselves: Practice in front of a camera to identify areas for improvement in their delivery, body language, and eye contact.
Practice with visual aids: If using them, rehearse with their visual aids to ensure a smooth integration.
