Preparing to be Persuaded (Evening)

Thursday, you'll be presenting your first persuasive speech.  You'll also be watching the persuasive speeches presented by your classmates.  I'll be putting up a blog post tomorrow that will allow you to identify the persuasive techniques employed by the other speakers in your class (worth 5 quiz points).  In order to be able to complete the assignment, you will need to be critically analyzing your classmates' speeches.  Think about the following questions as you listen/watch:

1. Where do they employ persuasive techniques?
2. Did they adapt to their anticipated audience receptivity?
3. Were you persuaded?
4. Did they use logos/pathos/ethos, Maslow's hierarchy, etc. 

You may want to take notes during and between others' speeches so that you are equipped to answer these questions on tomorrow's blog activity.
