I’m trying to learn for my Writing class and I’m stuck. Can you help?
Step A: Follow this link to read a detailed example of a persuasive speech outline: https://persuasivespeechideas.org/persuasive-speech-outline-a-detailed-explanation/
Step B: Once you have finished it, watch the following Ted Talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/robert_waldinger_what_makes_a_good_life_lessons_from_the_longest_study_on_happiness?utm_campaign=tedspread&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=tedcomshar. Use the example outline from Step A as your template for outlining this talk. Try and determine the type of attention getter, the need the speaker is addressing, specific examples of evidence used to address this need, the future, the call for action, and the conclusion. Feel free to use the transcript and pause the video to take detailed notes.
Step C: Post your detailed outline of this talk.
Step D: Answer these questions:
What is the most convincing part of this talk? Why?
Which appeals did the speaker use (ethos, pathos, logos), and why (or why not) were they affective?
What do you think the speaker could have improved on in this talk to convince you even more?
