Description

You will persuade their audience to take action on a need relevant to the role belief systems play in U.S. life while exploring a concept(s) of religion, philosophy, ethics, and/or epistemology. This presentation will draw attention to, describe the need for, discuss how the need can be satisfied, describe the future if no action is taken, and ask the audience to take action regarding the role belief systems play in U.S. life. This presentation will draw attention to the need, describe the need, discuss how the need can be satisfied, visualize the future if the need is addressed, and ask the audience to take action.

Instructions

The presentation must include a properly formatted and grammatically correct formal outline, including three (3) academic sources to support main ideas. The outline includes all five elements of Monroe's Motivated Sequence with appropriate evidence for each element, which are then translated to a speaking outline and delivered as the speech. All sources from outside research should be cited orally in the presentation and in writing using APA style on the presentation outlines. In addition, you should demonstrate mastery of extemporaneous speaking skills in all aspects of delivery.

This presentation requires you to implement presentation software as a visual aid (5 - 6 content slides and reference list slide).

Monroe's Motivated Sequence

Keeping your audience foremost in your mind, you will organize your speech using the Monroe's Motivated Sequence organizational pattern to influence and persuade them. There are other organizational patterns for persuasive speaking, however, we will be focusing on Monroe's Motivated Sequence in this class. When used properly, this organizational pattern is fool-proof. Your goal for this speech will be to gain immediate action. In your speech on the 'overpopulation of animals' to gain immediate action, you can ask your audience to foster a shelter animal, donate food and requested items to their local shelter or simply talk to friends and family about the importance of spaying/neutering pets.
