Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The goal of an informative speech is to educate the audience on a particular topic. Understanding the audience's prior knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, values, demographics, and needs helps tailor the speech to be more effective and engaging. However, the audience's personal experience in public speaking and the topics they have spoken about are not directly relevant to fulfilling the goal of an informative speech, as this information does not significantly influence how the information should be presented or what information is relevant to the audience.
