I need the outline of a persuasive speech

persuasive Speech Description: For your final speech, your goal is to present a problem that exists, based on facts and credible research, and persuade your audience to take action to solve the problem.

Of note- the outline format for this speech will be different from the previous two speeches.

Choose a topic that you feel represents a problem or opportunity that requires community action. You will be using Monroe’s Motivated Sequence as your primary persuasive structure. Establish the existence of the problem to your audience, offer a clear and explicit solution to that problem, and call on your audience to be involved in that solution. In some cases, the proposed actions of your audience may represent a complete solution to the problem. In other cases, their action may be just the first step in a lengthy process. In either case, your audience should have a specific understanding of what they can do to help solve the problem.

Please view the "Prohibited Topics" document, and then choose a topic that you are passionate about, that you have some experience with, or that really resonates with you. We are more likely to persuade others when we have a genuine interest, and/or feel strongly about the topic. Your goal is to craft a credible argument based on facts, not opinion, so please be sure to spend adequate time researching an appropriate topic before choosing one. 

Time Requirements: This speech is to be delivered within a 5-7 minute time frame (time starts after your show your audience in beginning, and stops before your show audience at the end).

Source Requirements: For this speech you will need 5 or more credible resources that DO NOT end in .com. You are also prohibited from using Wikipedia as a source for this speech. Other websites ending in .gov, .org, .edu, etc. are acceptable. Refer to the campus library for help finding credible sources. You must also cite your sources during your speech. 

Use of Appeals:  Using different types of appeals can persuade audiences. Try to use all 3 of the appeals listed below in your speech:

Logical Appeal- intended to appeal to the audience’s logic and reasoning abilities, logical appeal will include material such as factual support, statistics, quotes, examples, etc. which have been documented in credible outside sources.

Emotional Appeal- most individuals can be persuaded by appealing to various emotions (love, pity, compassion, hatred, etc.). Referring to a homeless child who is dying of malnutrition is an example of an emotional appeal.

Personal Appeal- part of whether an audience believes you is whether they think that you are interested in them and involved in your topic. Personal appeals include things like your own personal experience, which show your listener that you have a personal commitment to or involvement in the topic.

Connecting:  Any attempt at persuasion requires that you relate your topic directly to the audience, so occasionally during your speech you will want to point out to the audience how they are involved or why they should be concerned. Connecting to yourself is also a good way to build your credibility.

Delivery:  A persuasive speech requires conviction and confidence if it is going to be effective. Your vocal variety, strong eye contact, and use of gestures will all be very important. Remember to rehearse your speech until you are confident!
