MAKE SURE TO DO BOTH PARTS WHICH ARE THE SPEECH OUTLINE AND THE EXTRA CREDIT CRITIQUE!!!! Please see the Persuasive Speech Outline format below to write your speech. This is a template for the outline of your speech. You need an outline for your introduction, body, and conclusion. Write you speech in complete sentences using this outline format for your informative speech. This outline format will improve the clarity, brevity, content, and organization for your academic writing. This will be my “script” to practice and practice for your Informative Speech Video that will also be submitted so please please no AI. Persuasive Speech Outline Introduction I. First sentence (greeting or strategy) II. Strategy (e.g. asking a question, stating a statistic, telling a story, or more) A. Elaborate above B. Continue elaboration with another sentence III. Specific purpose (Today I want to convince you ….) IV. Thesis (My reasons are...two or three main reasons) Body I. There are many causes of problematic internet use for adolescents. A. According to the Journal of Child Development published in 2021 the main driver is loneliness. 1. The authors characterize loneliness as a lack of satisfying interpersonal relationships. 2. And lonely individuals perceive themselves as less socially competent. B. In Addictive Behaviors published in 2019, the critical role of parents’ relationship is emphasized. 1. Parent neglect is reflected in unresponsiveness to adolescent needs. 2. The parents are not there. 3. Adolescents need parental attention. (Repeat Roman numeral I for second reason and third reason (if necessary). Conclusion I. First sentence (e.g. In conclusion, today I have provided reasons to convince you ….) A. My first reason …. (first of two or three main reasons) B. My second reason…. C. (Third reason if necessary) II. I encourage you to do your own research using credible sources to reach your own conclusions. Persuasive Speech (chapter 16). I reviewed chapter 16 (Persuasive). Again, I encourage you to read this chapter and listen to my pre-recorded lectures for this chapter on Canvas in Modules. I explained the difference between the informative speech and the persuasive speech for this course. The difference will be primarily in your introduction. Your specific purpose and thesis will change. Since this is a persuasive speech then using words like “persuade, convince, and reasons” will be crucial to your intention. You need to reframe your thesis with "reasons" rather than "explain." For example: III. Today I will convince you that public colleges and universities should be free. (specific purpose IV. My reasons include a college education will improve our individual well-being and our communities. (thesis). I also encouraged students to cite more credible sources in their persuasive speech. This will help develop more “ethos” for yourself and your speech. This is the primary method students will use for their persuasive speech. Be aware of ethical fallacies name-calling, advocating harm, plagiarizing, providing false information, and more. I suggest students focus providing their perspective rather than employing a pro and con organization. Student will need to provide a statement to avoid the ethnical fallacy of “card stacking.” A simple statement can mitigate this fallacy. “I encourage you to do your own research and develop your perspective on this important topic.” Another method posited by Aristotle is “pathos.” This is the emotional appeal, which can be effective. This includes appeals to our morals, values, and the collective greater good. “This is the right thing to do.” Logos is the last method. This is based on logical reasoning. It can be very convincing providing you are able to clearly articulate your rationale, which the audience understands. Be aware of logical fallacies like biased sampling, hasty generalizations, faulty analogy, irrelevant evidence, red herring, straw man, and more (please read chapter 16 for specific explanations). It is imperative that your sources are credible and provide empirical support for your reasoning. When preparing your persuasive speech pay attention to the guidelines in chapter 16. Choose a controversial topic. This can be providing insights into a very mundane topic that we often overlook. Conduct extensive research. Again, I believe you need to cite more credible sources for persuasive speech. Phrase your specific purpose properly. “Today I want to convince (or persuade)...” Phrase your thesis clearly with reasons. “Today I want to convince (or persuade)...” Develop sound arguments and coherent organization. Again, citing credible sources and elaborating on their insights can intrigue your audience. Build an effective delivery. Review my evaluation from your informative speech. Work on making more eye contact. Speaking deliberately. And making sure your nonverbal communication is congruent with your verbal communication. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BOxQrw9ReM - this is the lecture our teacher provided to help with writing the speech I need a Works Cited (Bibliography or References) page with each source formatted in a hanging indent. For example: Works Cited Feeney, A., Travers, E., O’Connor, E., Beck, S. R., & McCormack,T. (2018). Knowing when to hold ‘em: Regret and the relation between missed opportunities and risk taking in children, adolescents and adults. Cognition and Emotion, 32, 608–615. I also need an extra credit critique. Extra credit critiques (10 points) are available for each speech. Review your speech video and then write about things that you could improve on (e.g. speaking too fast, no eye contact, lack of sources cited – you need a minimum of three credible sources, more consistent tempo/flow – variation of sentence structure and deliberate speech rate, etc.). A page or more and you will receive 10 points. Less than a page and you will receive a proportion of 10 points. Credible Sources - Journal Articles. This course requires citing a minimum of three credible sources for each speech assignment. Journal articles are considered the most credible. Specific purpose and Thesis. The specific purpose is your general purpose (to inform) with your topic added. For example, “Today I want to inform you about global warming.” Your thesis should break down your topic to two or three main points. For example, “I will explain using low-impact lightbulbs and taking a three-minute shower.” There are also highly credible open access journal databases (click search and enter your topic): PLOS https://plos.org PNAS https://www.pnas.org Frontiers Journals https://www.frontiersin.org SAGE Open https://journals.sagepub.com/home/sgo THE ROYAL SOCIETY JOURNALS https://royalsociety.org/journals/ Directory of Open Access Journals – Index of Diverse Open Access Journals https://doaj.org The Lancet https://www.thelancet.com/open-access Springer Open https://www.springeropen.com/ MDPI - Open Access Journals https://www.mdpi.com
