How can this be fixed? What will it take? Money? How much? Voting in a new law? How would we go about that? You need to discuss EXPERTS and their research. Name them. Who are they? How are they qualified?

SUBMIT your outline/ MLA works cited page AS A SINGLE DOCUMENT. SIMPLY LIST YOUR WORKS CITED PAGE AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR OUTLINE AND UPLOAD AS A completed document attachment or use the TEXT ENTRY option and cut and paste your document into the entry box. Canvas will only allow you to upload one item, so it is critical that you make this one document.

Please review the powerpoint on Persuasion prior to completing your speech. It will help to remind you what’s needed in a persuasive speech and how it differs from an informative one. Even if you are unable to see the embedded videos, the concepts and terminology will help you in both the speech and the remaining testing.

Name of the document: Persuasion lecture revised 2

Your final speech will be a persuasive speech. You will be asked to research a SOCIAL problem in society and to provide a solution to this problem. The focus will be on how it impacts.

Spend the first part of your speech telling us about the problem. How does this affect us? How large is the problem? How many people are affected? Bottom line: Why should we care about this. This is where I would expect to hear LOTS of facts, data, numbers, etc. This is your evidence to convince your audience (and me) that you have a valid argument.

The second half of your speech would then focus on the solution. How can this be fixed? What will it take? Money? How much? Voting in a new law? How would we go about that? You need to discuss EXPERTS and their research. Name them. Who are they? How are they qualified?

You need FIVE research sources on your works cited page. Research sources are not sources you used to find pictures or quotes. Wikipedia is NOT an acceptable source. YouTube is not a research source.
Use the outline template that I attached here and follow the format provided. All of your facts must be on the outline – statistics, names of organizations, experts, etc.
This final bibliography is ANNOTATED. What does that mean? It means along with the properly cited source, you must also include a 150-250 word paragraph explaining why you chose this source. Each annotation should directly follow each source. Do not list all your annotations at the bottom. Show which annotation goes with which source by listing it directly below each source. Why did you choose this source? How does this source aid your presentation? Why do you feel this source is valid and effective for your speech? Why do you consider the research in this source to be sound? Why you felt the statistics were valid, etc.

You might choose to check out PURDUE OWL or easybib.com to assist you in the creation of a proper bibliography.

Your bibliography needs to be 12 point Arial or Times Union font using Word formatting.
