Speech on Gun Control

Communication is used to inform, to persuade and to analyze. In this assignment, you will write a speech that provides your audience information about a topic. Your presentation will be submitted in the form of a Power Point presentation. Your speech should be a minimum of 1000 words long, including the total from the Power Point slides, and either the text of your speech in the Notes section of Power Point, OR in an audio recording that you attach. Recording your speech is optional. If you want to do a voiced power point, here are the Voiced Powerpoint instructions. If you want to make speaker notes for your Power Point speech, watch this How to make Speaker Notes in Power Point video. Your speech should include an introduction which identifies your main point, a body in which you provide support for your main point, and a conclusion that wraps up your presentation and says something about the significance of what you’ve presented, just as you would do in a paper. Here is a template of a speech in Power Point. Take a look at this Power Point speech template.
