Who is your primary audience? What is the setting or context (such as a formal classroom, informal group, or community)? What cultural norms or expectations should shape your approach?
What is your main point or thesis? What specific sources, examples, or data will you use to make your message clear and convincing?
What tone, pacing, gestures, visual props, or digital tools will you use to emphasize key points and keep your audience involved?
