The second speech and outline are due October 8. This is a persuasive speech in which delegates attempt to convince their colleagues to support a position related to a salient economic issue. A variety of economic issues will be studied in the preceding classes. Topic selection is critical. Delegates must be cognizant of their audience and state's position and concerns.
Research is essential.
Speeches should make reference to important data and relevant resolutions, documents, and conferences. Speeches should be five to seven minutes. Again, outlines must be in sentence form, include references and be handed in on time. All students must deliver an impromptu persuasive speech related to the resolutions introduced to the class in Assembly. This simulation will test a student's ability to speak, listen and respond.
