Turning a Paper Into a Speech

What should I include?

You should be sure to include the most important information from your paper

 

Where would I find this information in my paper?

Sources

 You`ll want to include the  information you got from your  sources. 

 

                        Why?

 

 Because using credible  information makes you more  credible and believable to  your audience. 

Explanations and Definitions

 Make sure you fully explain  what your topic is and include  definitions of any technical  terms that aren't general  knowledge

When you present...

You will have to verbally cite your sources. 

This means, that you will tell us where you got your information from.

 

ex: John Smith, English professor at Yale University, explains...

 

According to NASA.gov

Because this is persuasive, you should be appealing to

  • Logos
  • Ethos
  • Pathos

Logos

Appeal to logic

 

  • If you use statistics, facts, research results, etc, you will be appealing to logic.

Ethos

Appeals to morals or ethics

 

  • If you appeal to your audience's moral values, you are appealing to ethos.
  • If you use the quote of a well known and respected expert, you are appealing to ethos. 

Pathos

Appeals to Emotion

 

  • If you refer to something the audience feels strongly about, you appeal to emotions
  • If you show emotional pictures, staggering statistics, or a dramatic anecdote, you appeal to emotions

Your Speech will be stronger if you use more than just one appeal. 

Now...

Open your final draft on your computer, spend sometime highlighting the most important information that you think you should include in your speech.
