Persuasive Debate
Directions: In groups, you will choose a
persuasive topic for your final speech. Two will be the affirmative (pro) and the other two will be the negative (con). Through extensive
research, your team will present a debate that clearly defines and defends both
sides of the issue. Both sides must select a resolution. Speech will be between
16-18 minutes long.
Things to
include:
Group outline
Group works cited (at least 6
sources)
Intro/Conclusion for each “side”
Visual(s)
What
I’ll be looking for within the speech:
Delivery
Use of resources (How well you defend your “side”)
Refutation: attack the other side’s reasoning and/or evidence
How well you work together
Use of visual(s)
Citing!
Fluidity of back and forth debate
