Minimizing distance between the speaker and the audience is a way to influence the attention level of the audience in a positive way. a. true
b. false



Answer :

Minimizing distance betWeen the speaker and the audience in public speaking is one of some method to influence audience attention level in a positive way, so the correct answer is true.

Explanation:

The physics of sound is simple. If you decrease the distance between you and your audience, you will be louder for them.

  • Move your audience closer to you. When teaching corporate seminars, I’ll often move all of the chairs and tables 10 feet closer to the front of the room. It only takes me a minute or two, and it helps me avoid straining my voice for an entire afternoon. (It also gets my audience closer to the projection screen — another benefit!)
  • Move yourself closer to your audience. Maybe your audience can’t move closer (e.g. fixed theatre seating). In this case, try moving closer to them.
  • Block the seats in the back. If you know that your audience is smaller than the number of seats available, block the seats in the back. This gets everyone sitting closer.
  • Move to a smaller room. Usually, you are stuck with the venue you are given. But if you have a choice, try to match the room to the size of your audience. Speaking to 30 people in an auditorium creates volume challenges unnecessarily (and makes it less intimate, too). Speaking to 30 people in a seminar room is a better acoustic fit.
