What are some decisions that are to make before you give an oral presentation? whether to make note cardsthe length of time for each pointwhether your conclusion should be changedif an extra attention-getter would be effective

I would say that the best answer to the question: What are some decisions that are helpful to make before you give an oral presentation? would be: If an extra attention-getter would be effective. The second in the list, for me, would be the length and time for each point.

Explanation:

In oral speaking, especially when delivering a speech, it is very important to understand that most people do not have a very long attention span and therefore, in order for them to really become engaged into the speech, strong introductions, called attention getters are a really important thing to plan and to have, according with the type of audience that the speaker will have to face. Because these attention-getters will be the hook that is used to really gear people´s attention, they are extra important to plan. However, because of the very issue of people´s attention span, a speaker also needs to plan precisely how much time he/she will devote to each particular topic in the speech; otherwise he/she might lose the attetion of the audience. This is why in the answer I said that the first decision would be the use of the extra attention-getter, and the second, the planning of the time alloted to each topic.
