1. Develop an outline of your persusaive speech. Use the attached Persuasive Speech Outline Template to help you develop your outline. Also attached is an example for you to reference.
Make sure your outline includes an introduction, body, and conclusion.
Introduction
The introduction should accomplish three tasks:
Provide a context
Clearly state your thesis
Preview your main points
Body
The body of your outline should contain between 4 and 5 main points with as many supportive sub-points as time will allow you to present. (Remember your speech should be approximately 5-7 minutes in length.)
In the body of the outline, use information found in your research to declare and support your main points. Cite the supportive information in the: (1) text of your outline, and (2) on a page attached to the end of your outline. This page is called the Works Cited page.
Conclusion
The conclusion in your outline should accomplish a helpful review of the most important information in your speech; your thesis and your main points.
Provide your audience with a final thought that will help them remember what you had to say and recognize that your speech is ending.
2. Utilize research to develop your speech content
This is a persuasive speech, therefore, you need to present information to persuade your audience. You have to perform research to gather that information. Integrate your research within the body of your outline to support your main points.
A minimum of four different library database articles must be referenced/cited within the text of your presentational outline.
3. Cite your material sources
Every time you present information from a source, you must credit the source for his or her work. Otherwise, you are using their words (information) as your own. This is plagiarism. Always credit your sources: (1) in the text of your outline, (2) in the Works Cited page, and (3) with your voice before or after you use their material within your speech. Remember: When people can only hear what you are saying and cannot read the source for themselves, you must tell the name of the author(s) or journal.
A works cited page must appear as the last page of your outline.
TIPS:
Use the “cite” tool in the library’s databases when you find a specific article. Click on the “cite” symbol (looks like a tiny piece of paper) on the tool bar on the right hand side while you are looking at the article you want to use. Scroll down to the MLA citation, copy and paste it!
Use WORD to create your Works Cited page. Copy all of the citations onto one page in alphabetical order by first letter of the author’s last name. Select all the citations and click on the little handle to the lower right on the Paragraph box. Use the settings shown below: set all numbers to zero, set the Hanging Indent, and set the spacing to Double. Then click OK.
