By now, you’ve learned how to develop, research, and organize a speech in addition to gaining confidence
as a speaker. For your third assignment, you’ll put all of these skills to good use by preparing and
delivering a researched, persuasive speech.
Persuasive speaking is challenging because the goal is to create, reinforce, or change people’s beliefs or
actions. Your success will depend on your ability to adapt your speech to the audience and to support your
message with credible resources.
