Week 2: Know your Audience

We spent some time last week getting to know each other. This week we will get to know each other as the audience we will be speaking to all term. What are some of the things we can do to make our speeches more inclusive. Who do you think the following presentations are being made to (Ellen DeGeneres), (Stephen Colbert), (Barack Obama)? Are there any assumptions you can make about the audience based on these presentations? What are the speaker's doing to include their audience?

Please analyze one of the above links and post your ideas to the blog. Let us all know how these speakers applied the concepts of knowing their audience to their speeches.
