problem solution
a. Cause-effect

· Opt#1:

· Opt#2:
· My second topic choice is: Should boxing be illegal?
· My tentative proposition statement for this topic is: The sport has caused deaths and injuries more than any other.
The feedback from Professor:
Your topics will be fine when you change them from questions to statements which will show your position on the issues. Follow the requirements of the text to write a proper proposition statement. Your proposition statement should be a full sentence and should include your topic, the main point that you make about your topic and the main ideas you intend to discuss. It should also reflect the organization pattern that you have chosen.
2. The tasks:
You are required to create a persuasive speech delivery the outline
You are required to create an outline by desired outcome of either convincing or actuating. You need at least four sources and two of the sources must be different from the CCBC Library. You cannot use Wikipedia, About.com or E-how. If you decide to use sources from the Internet, remember to evaluate your sources.
3. Outline Format
It’s gonna be the same work that you did a good one. But you can follow these instruction below:
You must have 4 sections of your outline (Introduction, Body, Conclusion and Bibliography) and each section must have the appropriate heading. This outline must be in full sentence format.
· The Introduction and Conclusion must have capital letters next to each of the elements in the section. Each element must be on a separate line. The main points in the body of the outline must have Roman numerals and the supporting details must have uppercase letters. The supporting details and sub-supporting details must be Arabic numbers and lowercase letters.
· Organization Pattern: Select one of the following organization patterns to structure your speech: cause—effect, problem-solution or Monroe’s Motivated Sequence.
· Nonverbal behavior: Indicate nonverbal signals throughout your outline.
· Introduction: You must have the following elements in the introduction. First, attention getter/grabber, second: credibility, third: thesis and last: proposition. Each element must be separate and have an uppercase letter next to it.
· Body: You can only use one organization pattern to organize your main points. You must have between two to three main points that are subdivided. Each main point should have at minimum two supporting points and at maximum five supporting points. You must consistently separate all points (main, supporting, sub-supporting, etc.) by using the appropriate Roman numerals, Arabic numbers, uppercase letters and lowercase letters. All supporting points and sub-supporting points must be indented appropriately. All transitions, internal summaries or reviews and signpost must be in either brackets or parenthesis. (If you use material or information from another source, please do not forget to cite your source.)
· Conclusion: You must have the following elements in your conclusion. First, restate the proposition, then write the appeal, challenge and/or action and last include thank you. Again, all elements must be separate and have an uppercase letter next to it.
