Complete Persuasive Speech OUTLINE TWICE

Two STUDENTS HAVE THE SAME CLASS…so you will complete this TWICE WITH TWO DIFFERENT TOPICS…upload two separate documents/outlines once complete!

PERSUASIVE SPEECH (100 pts)Preparation Outline (20pts)

• The goal of this assignment is to move the audience to take action to stop/decrease a specific global issue happening within their nation, state, local areas/organizations – not just think differently, but do something specific. You will use the same global issue from your Informative Speech.

• The format follows Monroe’s Motivated Sequence. An example of the Persuasive Speech Preparation Outline with guidelines follows these instructions. Please do not retype the words in red as they are there just to help you understand the format.  Be sure to answer the questions in blue for each main point.

• Please note that you MUST answer the four objectives of Monroe’s Motivated Sequence so follow the guidelines provided or your grade will suffer! Do not make this assignment harder than what it is by trying to create more work than is necessary.

• Your Preparation Outline must be turned in before your speech will be graded! If you give your speech and your Preparation Outline has not been turned in, your speech loses one point per day until your outline is submitted.

• All documents should be typed and submitted as a Word document. There should be one inch margins, double spacing with 12pt. Times New Roman Font. There should be no grammatical or spelling errors. It should look just like the following example!!!!
