Citing Sources in Oral Presentations

Citing Sources in Oral Presentations

Properly citing sources is necessary when delivering your speech. Demonstrating subjective arguments are supported by objective data is necessary in both informative and persuasive speaking. Competent communicators establish their credibility by providing evidence, and providing content to make their presentation more memorable. You must avoid using less credible and non-scholarly sources.

In the writing phase, documentation should be provided for all specific information gained from consulting outside sources. This includes: textbooks, lectures, personal interviews, journal and newspaper articles, Internet sites, televised programs, or more.

Oral citation of sources requires less information than printed citations. However, there is still the need for academic rigor. The two obligations when citing data orally are attribution and recency.

Attribution is simply citing your source and your information.

“According to the Centers for Disease Control, 98% of all Zika virus cases in America were diagnosed in Florida.”

“As aired in a January 10th interview this year with Dr. Cynthia Bioteau, President of Florida State College at Jacksonville, 71% of all freshmen will earn at least a B in speech class.”

Recency demonstrates your references and evidence are current, salient and relevant.

“On January 1st of this year, the Centers for Disease Control predicted a strong flu season.”

“One week ago today the first man in space said, “We must teach young people more science.”

Remember, without proper source citation, you run the risk of losing credibility and being guilty of plagiarism. Any material drawn from a source must be properly cited. Plagiarism can be intentional or unintentional. If you have any questions, please ask them early to avoid any misunderstanding, confusion or delay in completing your work.

My native language

My native language is Arabic. According to the statistics of 2007, globally, about 280 Million people speak Arabic. This constitutes 4.23% of the world population by then. It can be noted that the language has spread to other nations. Nowadays, even other nations do teach Arabic and have it in their curriculums. One factor that has resulted to rapid speared is that its Islamic language and wherever Islam is, they normally speak Arabic. The intermarriage, intercultural, and globalisation has also spread the Arabic language speakers to other nations and territories.

It is funny when other people from other nations speak Arabic. The accent quickly notifies one that he is not Arabic and has just learned the language. What makes the difference is the pronouncing and the speed. International speakers know the sequence of words, and the logics of sentence formation but make pronunciation errors. At times, it is interesting listening to them. The accent not only comes with mimic, but it becomes comedic.

At one time I was corned in a place where everyone speaks their language, something I could not understand. This was when I went to an office, and as I wanted, a discussion in a foreign language took place. I felt out of place and humiliated. I was not sure if they were talking about me or their things.

The global relations have done a great deal in shaping the inter-cultural differences. The language barriers and isolations in other nations have also been bridged. The impact of globalization and the ensuing increase in multinational organizations have necessitated intermingling of people of diverse cultural origin and orientation. These coupled with the interactions at the place of work brings a special blend of challenges organizations face in the bid to achieve effectual communication within the organization amongst employees or between the organization and customers. Nowadays one feels free to travel to remote areas where he could have never gone without globalization.

My native language English

In the past we have had some languages gaining good number of speakers while same, the number of speakers reduce. My native language is English. I have known and spoken English till birth and all my lessons I take in English. There are about 335 million people speaking English globally. This is great number and constitutes more than 7% of the entire world.

It has been funny people from different accents speaking in English. I have watched different international meetings where for example Chinse tries to communicate in English. It is funny, it is laughable, it is comic. The way he pronounces the words, plus the word connections makes it very clear that he is not a native speaker of English. I can say that is fun but people have to tolerate international speakers since they are not the native speakers.

I have been in situations where people speak a language I do not understand. Some scenarios can be categorized as bad. Finding myself between Chinese, then they start speaking in their own language was not a good scene for me. The scene was demoralizing and confusing.

Global relations are very essential for better understanding of other people with cultural diversity. This goes to include being reliable in communicating with people of other cultures. At the organizational level this is very important because it allows individuals from diverse cultures to work together for achievement of a common objective. This necessitates that the individual at the organizational level and the organization as a whole develop a particular model for gathering the skills needed to overcome and deal with all the challenges that come with cultural diversity.it also through the global relations that people from other nations are able to work in other countries.
