Persuasive Speaking
As we have learned from our course readings, persuasive presentations have some very distinct elements that make them different from informative presentations. After reading about the persuasive process in Chapter 14, think of a speech topic (different than the topic of your Week Five Final Presentation) and describe how, when preparing a persuasive speech, you would address each of the steps in the process.   Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references according to APA formatting as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7.   Guided Response: You are required to respond to at least two classmates. When you do, compare experiences, insights, and/or the lessons you have learned by providing specific examples. Responses to others must be at least 75 words in length.
