Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A summary of main points should signal to the audience that the speech is coming to an end and recap the main ideas presented in the body of the speech, not introduce new information or take up a significant amount of additional speaking time. It is not necessary to call attention to the mechanics of the speech as this should be apparent throughout the delivery.
