GATHERING MATERIALSChapter 7 Lecture/Recap
Personal Knowledge and Experience
Is it okay to use personal knowledge and experience in your informative speech? Yes; must frame in non-persuasive way Cannot rely entirely on personal knowledge
for this speech Must be relevant
Library Research References Works Newspaper and Periodical Databases Academic Databases Can you cite an abstract? http://
www.gordonstate.edu/library/index.asp
Internet Research Experts advise speakers/researchers/students
to use internet research as a supplemental source; not as the only source. Why?
Search engines “docusoaps” What does this mean? “docusoaps” + “effects” What does this mean?
Specialized research resources (Example: .gov) Wikipedia
Cannot be used as a source Can be used as a starting point.
How so?
How to Evaluate Internet Sources Author? Sponsoring organization? Recent?
Will discuss and do activity on Wednesday/Thursday

INTERVIEWING
Research/Investigative Interviews Consider
Interviewee? Credible? Protocol; allow for feedback Prepare questions beforehand
Avoid: Questions that don’t require an interview Leading questions Hostile, loaded questions Double barreled/Overloaded questions
Clear purpose
Interview Questions: Hostile, loaded questions
Example: Did you enjoy spoiling the dinner for everyone else? Do you think you spoiled the dinner? Did you enjoy it? Question loaded with question and assertion
Double-barreled (more than one question) Example: Do you enjoy Dr. Goldman’s exams
and activities? Do you enjoy her exams? Do you enjoy her activities? Question loaded with more than one question
