Q Speech Critique "Teens Shouldn't Drive" Watch the video above. Today's speech is a little bit different because I want to talk about supporting material, and you don't really have too much of that in a demonstration speech other than instructions. This is a persuasive speech, and its goal is to change audience behavior or attitudes, so don't use this as a model for your demonstration speech! I want to focus on how she uses evidence (statistics, examples, visuals, testimony, other) to support her argument that teens shouldn't drive. First, what kinds of evidence does she use to support her argument? Which of these types of support do you find to be most effective and why? Do you think her overall argument is effective because she has structured her speech effectively and used evidence well? Why or why not? Is there anything else she might have added in terms of support to strengthen her argument? As always, you can critique her delivery (volume, tone, rate, enunciation, introduction, conclusion, clarity, etc.) Post your initial 250-word critique (10-points) and two follow-up postings (5-points each).
