Persuasive TaIk-Jack Whelan
Write Script for a Persuasive Talk
Goal: The pedagogical goal is to give you the opportunity to pull together all the
elements taught this quarter about persuasion into an effective, short persuasive talk.
Task: Choose a topic below; write the script for short presentation that should take 5
minutes to read out loud (800-900 words). Assume you are speaking to an audience
with a third undecided, a third pro, a third con. Your goal is to win over enough
undecideds to get a majority.
Deliverable. Typed script of the talk. It should clearly state the “crux argument”
before you begin your text, so I know what your rhetorical objectives are. Text of talk
should follow in full-block format.
 
Here are the topics. Select one:
I. Persuade the group to donate money to a charitable organization of your
choice. Assume that another charitable group will be making its pitch after
yours and that you have to anticipate its argument. And that the audience has
to choose between you to make a $Io,000 grant.
2. You’re testifying before the Seattle City Council about passing a $200 million
bond issue that will be part of a financial package that will build an NBA
quality arena. Persuade the councilors sitting on the fence to support this tax.
3. Convince a group of 2I elderly people that they need adopt a specific
exercise program. If at least I I don’t sign up, they can’t pay for the
instructor.
4. Persuade those at a town council meeting that they need to support the
building of a recreation center rather than a juvenile detention center to
reduce gang violence.
5. You’re testifying before a Senate Committee taking testimony about gun
control. The issues on the table are whether to ban assault rifles and to
require background checks at gun shows. Pick one and take either side.
6. You’re testifying before a Senate Committee taking testimony on certain
accounting practices:
Should small public companies be allowed to deviate from GAAP when
complying is considered excessively expensive?
Should the Security and Exchange Commission focus on prosecuting
companies or individuals for criminal offenses?
