HOW TO AVOID THE BOOMERANG • KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE (FRIENDLY, HOSTILE, NEUTRAL, A MIX?) • DO CAREFUL RESEARCH • NOT EVERYONE WILL AGREE WITH YOU— BE GRACIOUS NOT DEFENSIVE
The Difference is…… • Evidence • Examples, surveys, testimony, statistics • Proof • Evidence that is believed by the receiver • Audience has to accept the evidence to make it proof
REMEMBER EVIDENCE MUST BE TESTED TO BE VALID • KNOW THE TEN TESTS FOR EVIDENCE IDENTIFIED ON PAGE 397 OF YOUR TEXT (4th ed.).
TO ORGANIZE YOUR ARGUMENT: USE THE MONROE MOTIVATED SEQUENCE, PAGE 402
USE THE THREE PROOFS Logos Ethos Pathos
Three Forms of Proof • Logical Proof (Logos) • The use of argument and evidence to persuade • Personal Proof (Ethos) • The use of source credibility to persuade • Emotional Proof (Pathos) • The use of narrative to persuade
FINALLY, PERSUASION IS ALL ABOUT RESPECT… • ACCURATELY CITE YOUR SOURCES • RESPECT YOUR SOURCES • RESPECT YOUR AUDIENCE • RESPECT YOUR OPPONENT
TO REVIEW. . . Know your purpose Test your evidence Use the 3 proofs Respect goes a long way!
