Use eye contact with your audience and vocal variety to enhance your speech.
PART ONE ONLY FOR NOW.
You do not need to record anything. The topic on the outline needs to be the same as the topic in part two. Please read both parts before you begin so you have a clear understanding of what needs to be done. PLEASE DO NOT Plagiarize. I need part one tomorrow, if you are unable to complete that please do not bid on my question.
PART 1- Due tomorrow
Introduction
The purpose of this assignment is for you to carefully outline your informative speech, post it in this discussion, and peer review at least 4 of your classmates’ outlines. This will be done in a discussion format.
Please notice the Tuesday and Friday due dates below.
Directions/Questions
Use an organizational pattern as described in Chapter 13 (you may not use Monroe’s Motivated Sequence).
Initial Post: Post your Informative Speech Outline using the Speech Outline Form below by Tuesday at 11:59:59 p.m. CT. You can attach your Word document OR copy and paste the outline into the discussion text box (please note, if you choose this option your formatting will not necessarily transfer).
Reply Posts: Provide peer reviews to at least four (4) peers by FRIDAY at 11:59:59 p.m. CT. For peer reviews, offer ideas of how to strengthen their introduction, transitions, body, and conclusion. Consider offering ideas of how to help build ideas, sign posts to use (such as first, next, then).
Do NOT simply say “Great outline” or “The first main point isn’t strong enough.” Offer enough detail so that changes can be made and understood easily.

PART 2 DUE FRIDAY
Introduction
The the informative speech is to inform your audience about a topic of your choice using the public speaking format we are learning about (introduction, body, conclusion with transitions and supporting information). You will speak to your immediate audience of at least six (6) adults physically present but keep in mind that your intended audience is your class of peers (the immediate audience you have with you can be consider “stand-ins” for your classmates).
Directions
Prepare a four to six (4-6) minute informative speech in which you prepare a speech with the overall goal of only informing (not persuading) our audience of a topic of your choice. You will provide the instructor your topic for this speech in a discussion for approval.
Use evidence:
Use at least three (3) pieces of evidence from Chapter 12 (statistics, testimony, examples) of which two may be the same (for example: you could use two stats and one testimony; two testimonies and one example; two examples and one stat, etc.).
Use at least two (2) outside sources (one of which may be from the Internet; sources from Wikipedia may not be used). At least one source must be a physical source such as a book, magazine, newspaper, etc.
Prepare outline: Use an organizational pattern as described in Chapter 13 (you may not use Monroe’s Motivated Sequence).
Use proper delivery techniques:
Use note cards for your speaking notes – do not read your speech word for word like a script (those reading from a script will be deducted points).
Use eye contact with your audience and vocal variety to enhance your speech.
Minimize distractions (vocal distractions, such as “um” and physical distractions such as swaying)
You MUST have an audience of at least six (6) adults for all speeches (including this one) for this course. This is a university requirement. To earn credit for any speech you must either show your audience before andafter your speech OR prop your video recording device in such a way that I can see the audience AND you clearly throughout the entire speech.
SUBMISSION DETAILS
Submit two items: 1) Speech; 2) Outline
Make sure to submit an unedited speech video or link to your video and your speech outline that you use to prepare for your speech (the outline will be the most up to date outline you use after editing it from initial instructor feedback and peer feedback in this module).
Speech Requirement
Your speech must include the following:
Introduction
Attention Getter statement (consider a quote, short story, fun fact, etc.)
Central Idea (thesis statement)
Establish credibility
Preview of Main Points
Body
2-3 Main Points
Transitions
You can choose your own transition or consider using: “Now that I have told you about _________, I’m going to tell you about _________.”
Conclusion

Clincher Statement
HELPFUL TIPS FOR VIDEO SUBMISSIONS
Consider zipping or condensing your video file before submitting. Give yourself enough time before the module ends (11:59:59 p.m. CT on Sunday) to submit/ upload your speech video. Another option: create a public YouTube.com channel and upload your speech video there, then submit on a word document the link to your public YouTube.com video for the instructor to view. Creating a YouTube.com channel and uploading it to the web is NOT a requirement, just an option. (Note: This information is also provided on the speech assignment information).
