PART ONE: Persuasive Speech Outline
INSTRUCTIONS:
Your purpose is to persuade an audience of a problem that affects them and provide a solution by asking for some action. This speech will require research and skillful use of persuasion methods, emphasizing evidence and reasoning. You are encouraged to select valuable and exciting topics but remember they must be legal and appropriate for a college classroom.
Also, this class is inappropriate for highly polarizing issues such as health care, the legalization of vices, or other divisive topics. Refrain from talking about COVID-19 or Eating or Exercising. This includes eating Vegan or any alternative. Don’t do issues on the “What Not-To-Do List.”
Requirements
Select an exciting but “legal and appropriate” topic for a college classroom.
Minimum of SIX sources.
Time limit: 6:00 – 7:00 minutes.
You must be standing and facing your camera.
Purpose
The GENERAL purpose is to convince or move your audience to action.
Remember, you can only convince others if you believe in a topic, issue, subject, or purpose.
You can persuade others if you are committed and passionate about your subject. You can bring change if you are knowledgeable and have experience with the topic.
Problem-Solution Format Persuasive Speech
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT:
You are to persuade your audience to “act,” asking them to take some action. I suggest you ask your audience to DO SOMETHING –sign a petition, write a letter— whatever you choose.
The process of persuasion involves these steps:
Step 1:
You must get your audience to “receive” your message; they must hear or see it. The problem is that most “real” audiences reject messages or avoid exposure to messages that do not “fit in” with their values; they seek to protect themselves from unwanted changes in their ways of thinking. For example, people usually do not read newspapers or listen to political commentators disagreeing with their political views.
Step 2:
After you have gained your audience’s initial attention, at least you have them hearing or seeing the message; you must keep their attention. Unfortunately, your audience tends to accept or reject the message as you present it based on biases. For example, Democrats will watch to reject a candidate because they finally discover he is a Republican. Again, your audience usually wants to keep their perspective the same; it is a form of protection, resistance to change so familiarly to most people. If the message you are presenting is not consistent with their views, they will
(1) reject the message
(2) distort the message so that it seems to fit their views
(3) change their views.
Step 3:
To succeed in persuading persons to act, you must demonstrate that the action you are urging will help them reach some personal goal (or one you have provided.) If they are to accept your recommended action as a path to a personal goal, they must interpret your solution as one that “fits in” with their “philosophy of life.” A single course or action can fulfill the more personal goals they believe, the more likely they select your solution they see your solution’s result as undesirable, even if your solution might temporarily fulfill their personal goals, they will not choose the solution.
Persuading your audiences to perform as you wish, they must accept the recommendation. The audience must first receive the request to be motivated to take action. Consequently, the more precisely you tell them what to do and when they will likely act as you recommend. Also, if you can place them in a position they must choose, that is, work in a way that it is apparent they are accepting or rejecting your recommendation, the greater the chances they will choose to perform as you desire.
Step 4:
Although there are many ways to organize a persuasive speech, I request that you use a problem-solution format for persuasive speaking. Your speech must demonstrate the PROBLEM, the SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROBLEM, and the problem’s SOLUTION.
PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS:
First:
Select a topic appropriate for your audience (generally, college-level students).
Next:
Your next job is to determine what you should tell an audience to help you achieve your desired goal. What reasons can you offer in support of your policy that will especially appeal to the group you are to speak to? You must select the evidence and the arguments that appeal to your specific audience. Remember you MUST have at least SIX DIFFERENT ACADEMIC SOURCES cited in your speech, outline, and works cited sheet (part of your outline).
Then:
After gathering your information, proceed with developing your outline and the presentation.
USE what you have in your outline for your speech to Actuate (get your audience to act).
You must cite a minimum of SIX credible sources in your delivered speech, the outline content, and the works cited page. Remember to add a work cited/bibliography/reference page.
Use APA as your style guide.
Evaluation
Evaluation will focus on such essential matters as establishing eye contact, avoiding distracting mannerisms, formulating a solid specific purpose statement, fulfilling the functions of an introduction and conclusion, limiting main points and arranging them properly, and employing connectives effectively. Grading for the speech will be based on the following questions:
Does the speech conform to the kind of speech assigned?
Does the speech fulfill the time limit?
Did the speech have a clear, specific purpose and central idea?
Did the speech have an identifiable introduction, body, and conclusion?
Did the speech show reasonable directness and competence in delivery?
Did the speech fulfill all significant functions of a speech introduction and conclusion?
Did the speech display a precise organization of main points and supporting materials?
Did the speech support the main points with evidence that meets the accuracy, relevance, objectivity, and sufficiency tests?
Was the speech delivered skillfully enough so as not to distract attention from the speaker’s message?
Did the speech constitute a genuine contribution by the speaker to the knowledge or beliefs of the audience?
Did the speech sustain the audience’s n positive interest, feelings, and commitment?
Did the speech contain elements of vividness and a particular interest in using language?
Was the speech delivered in a fluent, polished manner that strengthened the impact of the speaker’s message?
Please use the template I attached for the speech.

You must cite a minimum of SIX credible sources in your delivered speech!
If using PowerPoint Slides:
Keep them simple.
Excessive artwork and colors are distracting.
Use dark text on a light background or light text on a dark background
Use PICTURES ONLY
Recording the Speech
Record your speech by using a camcorder, iPad, iPhone, or other quality camera.
You do not need an audience present but you may have someone serve as your camera person.
Place the camera in front of you; you should be visible from the front, not the side or back. You can use a tripod or objects like books to ensure that the camera does not shake while recording.
Start recording for a few seconds and then start your speech. The video should show your body from the waist up or your whole body so that I can see your posture; do not only record your face.
Your visual aid (e.g. PowerPoint) should be visible on camera, as well as you.
Please control noise and other distractions during the recording (e.g., pets, cell phones, babies, telephones). In addition, avoid recording outside or in front of curtains/blinds as it will create a dark shadow. If you use PowerPoint, please do not turn down the lights. A speech is a formal event and should be treated as such. View your video before you submit it to ensure you are happy with the quality of the video.
Your speech should be one continuous recording. If you mess up, you should do it again from the beginning. Do not start and stop the tape during the speech or edit your final video. Doing so will result in a deduction of points.
