  4. The nature of a persuasive speech:Fact, value, or policy claims

  5. Organize your persuasive speech: • Use a Causal pattern in which one main point causes another. • Example: • Thesis: Fast-food restaurants are a significant cause of health problems in the United States.

  6. Organize your persuasive speech: • Use a comparison pattern when you want to claim that two things are similar or different. • Example: • Thesis: There are significant differences between the two candidates for the legislature in our district.

  8. Organize your persuasive speech: • Use a criteria-application pattern when one point establishes standards for the value judgment you make and the next point applies it to your thesis. • Example: • Thesis: Community service is a valuable part of the college experience.

  9. Organize your persuasive speech:Value claims • Use a categorical pattern when listeners understand each point’s relevance to the claim, making it unnecessary for you to explain how each main point supports your value judgment. • Example: • Thesis: Advanced driver-training courses are beneficial.

  10. Organize your persuasive speech:Policy claims • Use a motivated sequence pattern that uses the following five steps: • Attention • Need • Satisfaction • Visualization • Action

  11. Organize your persuasive speech:Policy claims • Use a problem-cause-solution pattern that consists of the following three points: • Present the problem. • Demonstrate how the existing organizational or institutional policies will not solve it. • Present a solution to minimize the problem.

  12. Organize your persuasive speech:Policy claims • Use a comparative advantage format to persuade listeners that your proposal would be better than the status quo, although a policy change is not urgent. • The first point on your outline reveals your solution. • Each subsequent point details an advantage of your solution.
