  1. Strategic Planning Outline Supplemental Lecture

  2. What is a Strategic Planning Outline? • It is a way to plan your speech by evaluating the constraints, opportunities and the means to achieve your set out goals/purpose.

  3. The First Steps • Answer questions on the first page using headers.

  4. The First Steps • Topic: • What is your topic?

  5. The First Steps • Evaluating Constraints • How can you adapt to your audience’s limited attention span? • How can you enhance your positive ethos (having the audience view your topic or yourself favorably) ? • How will you adapt your speech so it will fit the listener’s knowledge, attitudes and needs?

  6. The First Steps • Evaluating Opportunities • Do you have a legitimate ‘information advantage’ over your listeners (do you possibly know more about the topic than most)? • What two or three ideas from the text can you use to make sure you will achieve your goals/purpose?

  7. The First Steps • Means • What informative or persuasive strategies are necessary for achieving your goals/purpose? • What organizational pattern will you use and why? • What supporting materials and visual aids will you use?

  8. The First Steps • Specific Purpose Statement • Should fit appropriately for informative or persuasive

  9. The First Steps • Thesis Statement • In one complete sentence, state the one idea that all the information/argumentation in your speech add up to.

  10. The First Steps • When you answer these questions… • Be sure to use the headers • Topic • Evaluating Constraints • Evaluating Opportunities • Means

  11. The First Steps • Under those headers, have thoughtful responses to the questions, more than just one or two sentences. • This will end up being about a page long before your standard outline would start. • Remember that the Specific Purpose Statement and Thesis statement will be one sentence each (unlike the answers to the questions.

  12. Take a Look • Take a moment to review the handout borrowed from another course about the Strategic Planning Outline. This can be found on the course website.

  13. The Outline • Always follow the example’s outline for the format of the outline, including the headers.

  14. Introduction • Introduction should have it’s header in bold. • Write out the text of your introduction explicitly marking your: • Attention Getter • Thesis • Influencing the Audience to view the Speaker Favorably • Influencing the Audience to view the Topic Favorably • Preview Statement.

  15. Body • Be sure to next label and bold “Body” • An example of the body format will be shown on the next slide.

  16. Body • Write a simple, complete and declarative (SCD) sentence starting with your first assetion/argument. • Write a SCD sentence supporting 1. This are denotes evdience and the source used 2. (e.g.: Ross, 2011) B. Write another SCD sentence supporting the main point that is parallel in structure of sub point A. 1. Evidence, source 2. Evidence, source Transition: write out a verbatim transcript of how you will link the first main point to the second.

  17. Body • The process would repeat itself in that format. • Music is usually cut in public schools facing hard times. • Budget reasons are a common reason • Local school budget. Statistics (DCSD, 2011) • Baltimore Schools story. Example (Jones, 2001) B. Costs of Programs factor into the budget • Estimated costs for a band program. Testimony (Turpin, 2010) • Maintaining instruments and equipment. Statistics (Dominic, 2009) Transition: From the budgeting cost we also see an issue with supply and demand from the students.

  18. Take a Look • Remember there is a full example of the Strategic Planning Outline online that you can follow as a guide.

  19. Conclusion • Be sure to denote that it is now the Conclusion, just like you did for the Introduction and Body.

  20. Conclusion • Conclusion • Write out the text of your conclusion showing how you will: • Anticipate the End • Summarize your Main Ideas • Make a Final Appeal

  21. Bibliography • Be sure you meet the requirements for the amount and types of sources you use. • Remember that you must give credit to anyone’s information you borrow for your presentation. Failing to do so is academic dishonesty and plagiarism.

  22. Bibliography • For this course we will use APA style to do our citations. • There are numerous sources out there to help you format to this style such as: • Purdue OWL: APA Formatting and Style Guide • American Psychological Associations Website • Many school libraries have websites or handouts that will be helpful as well.

  23. Remember • There is a handout with an example on the website. • If you are confused or need a little help, ask. • You can also submit your written work early for feedback, so if you are concerned consider working a little bit ahead.

  24. Good Luck! • Hopefully this style of outline will help you organize your thoughts better for a presentation.
