Notes de l'éditeur
Have students get into groups and talk about what culture they were thinking of and artifact. Ask a few to share out loud. If have time have them create a handshake or dance move. P.45
Last class we talked about human communication, the models, and communication apprehension. Today we are going to actually dive into organizing our presentations.
Ask class: What do you think the advantages are of creating an outline and organizing your presentation?
Part of making a good argument is making sure your speech is logical meaning it makes sense. This has a lot to do with logos.
A general purpose statement is a brief statement representing what you aim to do with the speech; there are 3 types : to inform, to persuade, to entertain.
Explain the difference between the 3 types.
After you have your general purpose start to search for a topic.
*PRACTICE EACH TECHNIQUE
1) Individual brainstorming- think of as many topics as you can in a limited time.
2) Categorical Brainstorming- begin with categories that prompt you to think of topics.
Politics, Entertainment, Family Life, Business, 3) Personal inventory- write down anything that describes you ( experiences, attitudes, values, beliefs, interests, skills)
personal inventory://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdHXOc9ceS0
4) Current topics- in the news, media and minds of people in your audience.
5) Internet searching- Start your search for information.
Have students go through and ask:
Ask yourself is this appropriate for me? Is this a topic that I am interested in? Passionate about? Care about?
Ask yourself is this appropriate for audience? Will they care about the topic or be interested in it? How much do they already know about the topic?
Ask yourself is this appropriate for the occasion? Does it fit with the occasion, is this a good topic for an informative, persuasive, or commemorative speech?
Narrow topic with a concept map: a visual representation of the potential areas that could cover speech. Shows relationships between ideas. Circle topics.
In other words your specific purpose is a narrower version of the general purpose statement – it is a declarative statement that identifies what you will talk about, what you will say about it, and what you hope the audience will take away from the speech.
Have them turn to cultural artifact speech or watch.
