Persuasive Speech

The number one thing most people fear is writing a speech and auditioning it publicly. Many people would rather die than to present publicly. Writing speeches to persuade people is not only a skill but art there needs to be a little bit of everything, The 3 common things in every persuasive speech is Pathos, Logos, and Ethos. Pathos is what appeals to the emotion or what tugs on the heart. Logos is something that has to do with statistics or logistics like financial cost and funding. Lastly, Ethos is using a credible source such as the former President John F. Kennedy. Analyzing JFK speech to fund NASA, I can take a look on how this 3 aspects appeal to a great persuasive speech.

The introduction & attention getter were complete but weren’t very engaging, which in my opinion was my speeches biggest flaw. My speech wasn’t one that as soon as you heard it you gave it your undivided because the importance of they topic in my opinion was very subjective. In my opinion the me employing a very loud, lively attention getter would’ve

I will be critiquing my persuasive speech on puppy mills. The issue of puppy mills is one that is very important to me, and I was very dedicated to my speech. My speech informed the audience of the detrimental effects that puppy mills have on dogs, possible solutions to the problem, and how the audience could help. My persuasive goal was to try and convince the audience to help put a stop to the issue of puppy mills by adopting a dog from a shelter or rescue organization, or contacting their local legislature about the issue. My speech had assets and drawbacks which were apparent in my content and delivery. My strengths included my PowerPoint, the emotional appeal, and the commitment to my topic. My weaknesses were the length of my speech, maintaining eye contact, and my verbal delivery. However, these can be amended using several easy methods, such as timing myself while I practice, writing notes on my cards to remind me to keep eye contact, and practicing more in general. The most vital aspect of my speech was that it exhibited strong features.

Will the presentation and information give your employees an actionable plan to improve their lives and/or work methods? A public speaker’s presentation needs to be more than a simple monologue people forget about the next day. It has to resonate with the audience on a long-term basis.

Presentations should reflect a careful analysis of audience interest and be relevant. Presentations should also reflect the theory we

I went into detail how by listening to my speech, they could possibly help a family member or friend in the future. Finally, my preview of the main points did a great job of giving a roadmap into the rest of my speech. I went into each of my three main ideas and talked about what I would be examining within each of them. I made sure not to use any evidence too early or give too much away in the preview. I simply discussed what would be later covered in the coming minutes. An example, one of my points was government involvement. I previewed that I would be discussing the difference between how government at the local and national level affected access and how they differed.

The topic I chose for my persuasive speech was “Why the minimum wage should be raised”. I chose this topic because it was a topic recently discussed in my history class. After being educated on the issue I thought knew enough that, through additional research, would be able to deliver a well-planned speech. It is also an issue that is viewed as controversial. When it comes to controversial issues you have to become educated on both sides of the issue. I chose the “in favor” standpoint because it was the side I needed to see more clearly. I believe it was not only good for me but for my classmates to be able to be informed on a current political topic in America.

In general, effective persuasive speeches strive to influence the attitude and mentality of other individuals, moving them more closely towards the perspective of the respective speaker. Simultaneously, persuasive speeches may also strive to cause an explicit response in the audience, such as persuading individuals to take action against poverty and donate money. There are many factors that could be attributed to influencing the success of the speaker in doing so. These reasons may include: motivation, reason and emotion, and even credibility. During the persuasive speeches in class, the members of my group, Amanda, Meghan, Elena, and Christine, all used effective techniques, such as props, visuals, and personal disclosure in order to effectively

A good persuasive speech topic should contain not only a good quality content but also have enough information that it delivers the purpose well, i.e. clearly supporting your stance while convincing the listeners to agree to your point of view. Given below is a list of good persuasive topics to develop and deliver great speeches:

My speech was well organized in the way that we know what people are doing wrong to cause bad effects on your health by shoes to learning the effects specific shoes can do to your health to learning ways to prevent any effects from occurring. The pattern of organization I used was one of what you are doing to consequences to prevention. I believe that my main points were pretty easy to follow because each main point follows another. I successfully used transitions/connectives in this speech compared to last speech.

I think my persuasive speech went pretty well. I was a little nervous about going up to speak in front of the class; however, the nervousness went away as I was getting into my speech. I noticed, as I was speaking, I was swinging my body side to side a lot, I guess it was to kind of distract myself from being nervous. But I stopped doing it after I realized I might be distracting my audience. My speech was organized, I followed the format of the persuasive speech outline as prof. Igiel has provided. My main points were fully supported by reliable sources. I maintained eye contact and my posture was good. Also, I articulated words clearly. I did not pause effectively, but I don’t think I rushed through my speech. My language was clear and appropriate.

There are many different elements of a persuasive speech to take into account. Selecting an appropriate speech method and organization will help to provide an outline of what my speeches content should include. At the beginning of my speech, I will open with an attention getter in order to elude to the importance of my speech topic. Education is important to many people, include my audience members who all happen to be students. I hope that by reminding them, of why they are listening to this speech that they will open their minds to the importance of education in everyone, including children.

There are basic reasons why specific presentations capture attention and certain don’t. One of the biggest problems with presentations in our workplace is, redundancy. They pound the same information repeatedly. There have been presentations delivered, where person decided that a word or point needed to change that would create little to no difference in the presentation; however, we would be required to view another presentation of the same material, occasionally less than a month after having it presented. This goes against one of Bovee and Thills purpose for a message, “Will anything change as a result of your message” (p. 94).

For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the

By comparing the various parts of the rubric, I think I struggled with the vocal aspect the most. Throughout my speech, I had a dull monotone to my voice that took away from my argument. In certain aspects, the monotone added to the seriousness of my speech and gave the audience as sense of the impact of my topic. For other parts, especially describing my passion for studying disease, the lack of inflection in my voice prevented me from fully establishing an emotional appeal. Similarly, the monotone in my voice effected the other parts of my speech as well. By not altering the tone of my voice, it caused me not pay attention to the speed at which I was talking, resulting in me falling short of the
