Assignment

Often, one must persuade an audience to act. This requires the presenter to speak to the history of the presentation topic, as well as consider how best to persuade their audience to take the action suggested.

If you find it helpful, you may wish to create an outline to help you prepare for your presentation.

Select a topic from the following list:

An issue in your community or on a national scale that requires a resolution, such as a local policy or law you feel should be created or changed

An event or action plan for your local community or workplace, such as hosting an art fair, introducing a recycling program, or cleaning up a local park

Another topic as approved by your instructor

Create an 8-10 minute presentation using PowerPoint or similar software that does the following:

Summarizes the topic and the effect of the issue on the community

Proposes a solution or plan of action that addresses the selected issue or event, while including a balanced summary of potential audience responses in order to best persuade everyone to action
