Purpose

One of the best ways to improve your own public speaking skills is to observe and analyze other speakers. In this assignment, you will watch a recorded speech from a previous student while following along with the speaker’s outline. This process will help you better understand how an outline translates into a live speech and how organization and delivery work together.

Instructions

1. Review the Materials
   • Watch the speech video provided here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YuHW8C8JL0Links to an external site.
   • Open the speaker’s outline before you begin watching so you can follow along. Monroes Motivated Sequence Persuasive Speech Outline Student Example.docxDownload Monroes Motivated Sequence Persuasive Speech Outline Student Example.docx
2. Watch the Speech
   • Watch the speech at least once without stopping.
   • On a second viewing, use the outline to track the speaker’s introduction, main points, transitions, and conclusion.
3. Analyze the Speech
   As you watch, pay attention to:
   • How clearly the speaker introduces the topic and purpose
   • Whether the main points follow the order of the outline
   • How transitions are used to move between points
   • Moments where the speaker closely follows the outline and moments where they stray from it
   • How delivery (eye contact, vocal variety, pacing, and confidence) supports the message
