Q Part 1 Now that you have read the instructions for the informative speech, I want you to start brainstorming topics or developing points from your outline. If you are confused about how to brainstorm or you are stuck coming up with ideas, then here is a great link to read about brainstorming (Links to an external site.). ) Come up with 4 possible topics, one for each of the following categories: 1. An object 2. A process 3. An event 4. A concept Your post should include the following: • Your interest in each of the 4 topics you posted • What your audience's potential interest in each of the 4 topics might be • A possible visual aid that could be used to enhance and clarify your message for each topic (be specific here) Example: 1. Speech on an object o Topic: Golden Gate Bridge o My interest: I have always enjoyed visiting San Francisco and crossing the Golden Gate Bridge is always a highlight of my visits. o Audience interest: We all live fairly close to this landmark and, even if you've never seen it in person, it has an impact on different parts of our life (i.e. culture, media, travel). o 2-3 main points: ? The history of the bridge ? Impact on modern culture o Possible Source: https://www.goldengate.org/bridge/history-research/ (Links to an external site.) 2. Speech on a Process o Topic: How viruses work in the human body o My interest: I have always been interested in how viruses work and, as a self-proclaimed hypochondriac, knowing this information always makes me feel a bit better when illnesses are going around. o Audience interest: It's good to know how viruses work, especially now that we are in the midst of a global pandemic. o 2-3 main points: ? What a virus is ? How viruses work inside the human body ? Incubation periods and recovery of common viruses o Possible Source: https://now.tufts.edu/articles/what-are-viruses-and-how-do-they-work (Links to an external site.) 3. Speech on an Event o Topic: The Stonewall Riots o My interest: I think it's very important to understand our history to see how society has come to where it is today. o Audience interest: Many people believe that riots are not a good way to protest, I think informing them of this pivotal event in history might shed more light on how riots work to evoke social change. o 2-3 main points: ? How the event began/who were the essential players in the event ? What changes the event brought about ? Cultural impact today o Possible Source: https://www.history.com/topics/gay-rights/the-stonewall-riots (Links to an external site.) 4. Speech on a Concept o Topic: Sociopathy o My interest: I have always been interested in psychology, and once considered it as a career. o Audience interest: According to a Harvard study, 1 in every 25 people is a sociopath so it's very likely you know one. Many people have very negative misconceptions about sociopathy, it's important to be informed. o 2-3 main points: ? Defining sociopathy ? Misconceptions o Possible Source: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/320142 (Links to an external site.)
