The general rule of thumb for using presentational aids in a speech is that they would clarify, enhance, or reinforce a point in the speech. Design your own presentational aid for this speech. An argument is made when you state a claim or conclusion you want your listeners to accept, and then you support that claim or conclusion with evidence. The acceptability of any claim depends on the evidence supporting it. Instructions Identify an argument in the speech.
Instructions Construct an opposing argument.
