The process of preparing a speech relies on many of the same planning and organization techniques that are utilized in written communication like essays. This handout will discuss the purposes of various types of speeches and will offer guidance on how to best outline and prepare for a speech. This handout also includes a speech outlining template.  \nTypes of Speeches  \nWhen writing an essay, the style and organization is often determined by the purpose of the specific writing. Similarly, speeches are also designed around a purpose and crafted for a particular intended audience. This handout focuses on the three major speech types you’ll experience in academic and professional settings: 1) informational, 2) persuasive, and 3) demonstrative. While there are other types of speeches used during “special occasions”—such as eulogies, wedding toasts, or graduation speeches—this handout does not discuss them in-depth.  \nInformative Speeches  \nThe goal of an informational speech is to share information about a topic that the audience does not already know. This can be used in academia, for example, to share findings from a research project or to teach a lesson on a particular subject. These speeches can feature facts, statistics, or data that demonstrate your knowledge and help the audience understand the subject. The following passage is an excerpt from an informative speech on global warming. Note how the speaker keeps to factual and descriptive statements.  \n[…] Global warming occurs when greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane trap heat inside the earth's atmosphere. Think about what happens when you open your car door after the windows have been rolled up on a hot day. Heat from the sun enters the car, but the frame of the car prevents it from escaping. To a small extent, this is a representation of what happens during global warming. Burning fossil fuels like petroleum and deforestation both contribute to the problem.  \n[…]  \nGlobal warming has already started to affect the earth in several ways. Arctic glaciers have begun to melt, threatening indigenous life such as the polar bears. Melting glaciers also cause sea levels to rise. This could become a problem for low land areas like the ones in the South Sea Islands. Ocean temperatures have begun to rise. This causes some of the algae to die which can affect the entire food chain. [   ]  \n~ “Global Warming Speech,” Best Speech Topics.  \nGoals and Strategies for Preparing a Speech, Fall 2021. 1 of 6  \nPersuasive Speeches  \nThe goal of a persuasive speech is to change the belief or opinion of your audience. These speeches often focus on a controversial or divisive subject, and while they use concrete evidence and facts, persuasive speeches can also utilize emotions and other rhetorical strategies to sway the audience’s perspective. It’s important in a persuasive essay to consider both sides of the argument to fully convince the audience—the same is true in speeches. The following passage isan excerpt from a persuasive speech arguing against gender selection during pregnancy. Notice how the speaker uses a combination of facts and rhetorical strategies to influence the audience’s perspective; the speaker also considers and then refutes an opposing perspective.  \n[…] Not only is gender selection dangerous, but it can create sex distortion ratios, particularly in countries where one sex is the preferred member of society.  \nProponents of gender selection, though, have come up with an answer to this one as well. Dr. Suresh Nayak, an Indian Ob-Gyn, suggested that the fear that sex selection would change the natural ratios was unfounded becaus","cbCaikw2ztaEBq04","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikw2ztaEBq04","pdf",217726,6,"English","# Goals and Strategies for Preparing a Speech\n## Types of Speeches\n## Informative Speeches\n## Persuasive Speeches\n## Demonstrative Speeches","[{\"question\":\"What are the three major types of speeches covered in the handout?\",\"answer\":\"The handout focuses on informational, persuasive, and demonstrative speeches.
