Instructions

Students will: (1) video record themselves on camera (students must be both seen and heard) delivering a persuasive speech of 3-5 minutes focused on advocating for a specific action, policy, or procedure; (2) submit to Dropbox a document that presents their recorded speech as a URL along with their APA formatted references. 

 

Students should ensure that they: 

· Design a well-organized and supported speech on a topic that is appropriate for a time limit of 3-5 minutes.

· Present a persuasive claim that is framed by a clear organizational framework that includes an introduction, supporting points, and a closing.

· Use at least 3 reputable sources as evidence in the speech; these sources must be presented both orally, using attributive tags (such as “According to a report published by the CDC in 2023” or “As stated by Professor X, a researcher at X school, in 2022”), and in writing, using APA reference formatting.

· Use a suitable visual during the speech, such as a prop or brochure/infographic.

· Video record themselves on camera presenting to the camera as their audience, ensuring that they can be both seen and heard.

· Upload a document to the Dropbox that presents their Speech URL at the top of the page as well as their APA formatted references.

(USLO 10.4)

Guidelines for Choosing a Topic 

When choosing a topic: 

· Ensure the topic is persuasive by using a 
should statement to frame your argument rather than a 
how statement, which leans toward an informative speech. For example, note how “plastic grocery bags should be banned” is persuasive, while “how to recycle” is informative.

· Ensure the topic is appropriate for a 3–5-minute speech. This means that highly controversial topics should be avoided, as it takes more than 3-5 minutes to persuade someone to consider changing their core values. This also means that the scope of the argument should be narrow: focus on an aspect of an issue rather than the whole. For instance, in 3-5 minutes, you could focus on what might be done with a specific aspect of pollution, such as eliminating disposable straws about water pollution or cutting back on fast fashion to help impact landfill pollution.

Topic Suggestions 

To help you select a topic, here are some examples of focused and persuasive claims appropriate to the context of a persuasive speech of 3-5 minutes in length: 

· People should take a First Aid course.

· People should donate blood.

· Students should take a self-defense class.

· Nurses should not work twelve-hour shifts.

· People over 40 should take a multivitamin to help protect against dementia.

· People should adopt a pet from a shelter instead of a breeder.

· People should reduce caffeine

· People should omit sugar in their diet. 

· People should exercise daily.
