chronological

Examples of chronological in the following topics:

• Organizing and Outlining the Speech

  • When giving a speech on the history of television, you might organize your points chronologically by starting with the invention of motion pictures, to the invention of the television, through to modern internet streaming video today.
  • Depending on your subject and the point you are attempting to make, it might make sense to order your research and points in chronological order.
  • Outlining your speech as a series of chronological events or points allows your audience to follow along a linear timeline for easy understanding of your subject matter.
