Question

Define "immediacy" and discuss how the excerpt is an example of immediacy.

Answer 1

Immediacy-The state, condition, or quality of being immediate.Whenever it is time to prepare to talk  in class the first thing I think about is how you can connect with the audience. I do this first because I feel that any audience member should feel a connection between them and the speaker whether or not they agree or disagree with the speaker. And the way I display this connection with the audience is through the types of immediacy such as verbal immediacy, nonverbal immediacy, technological influences on immediacy, and cultural influences on immediacy.
