Q Answer one of the following. Please copy and paste the questions in your document and place your answers beneath: 1. Which type of organizational plan for persuading people do you prefer and why? Give specific examples. 2. Chapter 12 discusses ethical issues of persuasion. Describe an ethical issue you have faced in trying to communicate and persuade others to adopt a key position or decision you hold. Have you been on the receiving end, where a persuasive business report or presentation crossed the line, ethically? 3. Provide a video link (or clip) of a presentation that demonstrates effective, or ineffective, use of statistics or graphics/charts and tell us why it is so effective or ineffective. Be as specific as possible. Your initial posting to the Discussion Forum is due by Tuesday, midnight. You are expected to provide substantive responses to 3 of your peers. Initial responses to this topic question should run no less 2-3 paragraphs and include insights and concepts from the week’s reading. Your 3 responses to your peers should approximate 1-2 paragraphs in length each. Students, however, should not be limited by these measures if they feel there is more to write and express. Failure to approximate responses and replies using the above guidelines will result in a lower point total for this component of the course. Mark your follow-up responses as: FIRST RESPONSE, SECOND RESPONSE, THIRD RESPONSE. To be eligible for full discussion points, you should participate in the discussion forum on multiple days (not just a single day). This enables a flow and back-and-forth to the discussion. Do not wait until Saturday to make all your posts; be sure to participate throughout the week. In addition, properly identifying your three responses as noted above along with addressing your peer by name will also provide for maximum credit. Strive to be as specific as possible and share your own perspective, even if it differs from others or from the textbook. This is not about right and wrong—the whole class benefits when you share what you think. It is expected that appropriate on-line decorum and protocol will be honored in all Discussion Forum exchanges. Note that the above standards are the minimum requirements. You are encouraged to participate actively in the online discussions because dialogue about the course material is a great way to benefit from the different perspectives of your classmates.
