 For both a speech and a written paper, the effectiveness of both comes from the person delivering whatever format because experience is everything when you compare when someone who has just started out to five years of experience. They both utilize the who, what, where, when, and why but speech can bring life to your paper, giving more depth to the words by adding your expressions. The downside to speeches is the consistency between delivery and the response from the audience, as for a written paper it is always constant when a reader absorbs the information. The textbook talked about utilizing humor in your speech to assist the audience in remembering and how to use it to make a point but also not to go overboard depending on the audience (Beebe et al., 2022). This not only can help them remember you and your speech but also help you relax if speech giving still gives you anxiety, like me.

Presenting information in a speech has advantages and disadvantages compared to a written paper. One advantage of a speech is that it can be more engaging and persuasive than a written paper. A skilled speaker can use tone, body language, and vocal inflection to emphasize key points and convey emotion, capturing the audience's attention and making the information more memorable (Izar et al., 2020). Additionally, a speech allows for interaction between the speaker and audience, such as question-and-answer sessions, which can clarify points and address concerns. However, presenting information in a speech can also have drawbacks. One disadvantage is that a speech is a one-time event, meaning the audience only has one chance to hear the information.

In contrast, a written paper can be read and reread multiple times, allowing the reader to review and analyze the information at their own pace (Izar et al., 2020). Furthermore, a written paper can be more precise and structured, with footnotes and citations to support claims and arguments. In conclusion, presenting information in a speech and a written paper has advantages and disadvantages, and the decision of which to use depends on the purpose and audience of the information.

There are multiple advantages to presenting a speech, including it saves time, getting the audience's attention, motivating and controlling, and having a good relationship (October 2022). It saves time because when you speak to your audience it is a quick way to talk to your audience. It helps to get the audience's attention when you talk to them, and you can see how your speech is (October 2022). It helps you keep control of your tone and to stay focused. Some of the disadvantages are that you do not have something to look back on for further references, the reader can be confused because they cannot read their paper, and if you have a huge crowd, it will be hard due to the sound system (October 2022). The advantage of written communication is that you can have a record, and send a verbal message, and it is more reliable (Bright, 2015). The disadvantage of written communication is that it takes a lot of time.
