Discuss the likelihood of technical problems happening when using visual aids and the best way to respond to them. Identify the relationship of technical difficulties to the overall quality of the speech or what conditions make the difficulties more important.
What will be an ideal response?
- The speaker should anticipate that whatever can go wrong, will, preparing him- or herself for the possibility of technical problems.
- Preparation includes rehearsing with the equipment that will be used and having a backup plan if something does go wrong.
- The answer should explore the question of whether a technical difficulty substantially damages a speech and what factors might make the impact of the difficulties greater or lesser. The text does not provide a concrete description and students are encouraged to experiment with the answer.
