Assuming you have been asked to speak on the use of technology in the classroom (or a topic of your choosing), ask yourself this: If my audience remembers nothing else from my speech but this one thing, what should that one thing be? Now, write a brief story or anecdote to illustrate this point. Use imagery and vivid language to paint a picture in your audience's mind
I would first start with talking to my audience as a student and not just some person giving a speech. People in charge of budgeting may disagree with me because technology is expensive and constantly improving. I could show them everything you can do using technology. I can show them good ways to budget in order to be able to afford this technology. For selective exposure, it is a theory within the practice of psychology, often used in media and communication research, that historically refers to individuals' tendency to favor information which reinforces their pre-existing views while avoiding contradictory information. The older members of my audience may screen out any of the positives I shared about the technology because they do not understand it and believe since they did not have it when they were in school, therefore we should not have it.
