Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Signposting is when a speaker clearly indicates where they are in their presentation, which helps the audience follow along and understand the organization of the speech. In this case, Marelle is reminding her audience of what she has already covered (reiterating the past), stating what they are currently focused on (the present), and indicating where she plans to go next (the future), which falls under the category of signposting. The other options (using statistics, forecasting, and using visual aids) do not accurately describe this particular method of presenting supporting information.
