Preparation Outline for the Persuasive Speech (on homelessness in New york)
Ensure that you are using Monroe’s Motivated Sequence and that you have included each component:
1. Attention Getter
2. Need – problem statement
3. Satisfaction – what are you proposing as a solution to the problem
4. Visualisation – what would things look like if the solution you proposed were put in place, how would they be better
5. Counterargument (remember that this is an additional step) – why do some people say this is not a problem; what would happen if we did nothing.
6. Call to action – what specifically are you asking your audience (classmates) to do. You must identify something that they can do immediately and something that is manageable.
Ensure that you have at least five references with at least 3 of those from academic sources.
**** must be accompanied by a powerpoint.
