Outline and Citation Instructions Purpose: To organize speech material into clear, discrete sections, observe a rhythm or flow to the speech on paper, and create a document that can be used for practicing/rehearsing the speech before the performance.Outlines Include the following sections for your outline as detailed below. There are models from former students on D2L in the content section that you can compare to your own outline. Your outline will not be identical but should look pretty similar in terms of its overall format based on the following criteria.-
A complete introduction and conclusion broken down, separated, and labeled into their basic components. The five elements we discussed in class for intros and the four elements for conclusions should all be present. They should be fairly detailed and may be written in paragraph form. This is as close to the exact language you intend to use in the speech as possible. Points will be deducted for general statements or intents that are too broad or vague.
Medium-length single sentences should be used for every point or subpoint in the body. Paragraphs or longer sentences are only allowed if you are quoting a source found in your research or if they appear in the intro/conclusion. Single sentences only (and no run-ons)! In addition, make sure there is a clear subordinating structure (such as I., A., 1., a.) to distinguish main from sub points using a Roman Numeral style structure. Bullet points or something less formal like keyword expressions will not receive points, so use a specific format of single sentences consistently from point to point. There should also be enough details provided in the body so that there are both main points and subpoints underneath them to flesh out the speech’s content.
Transitions should be present and clearly labeled between all major points, including the introduction and body, all main points in the body, and then the body and conclusion.
References (or in-text citations) should be present in the outline (intro, body, or conclusion) where you intend to mention them in the speech.
There should be a bibliography after the conclusion written in MLA style.
-There is a blank template available on D2L under this document. Download and use that document when drafting your own outline. You do not need to fill in every main point or subpoint, but every part of the introduction, transitions, conclusion, and bibliography, and at least 2 – 3 main points with some subpoints should be completed. Students who do not use the template often lose points because something is missing from their finished outline or required elements aren’t labeled correctly. Please use the template when drafting your outline.
CitationsEach source you verbally cite in the speech assignments for this course should have the following 3 relevant pieces of information:-
The author or organization that wrote/published the material.
The book, website, or source where you found the information.
The date the information was published OR the date you accessed the information online.
-This is one way it can look, but play around with whatever rhythm sounds good to you: “According to John Que in his 1999 book “The World of Yoga…” Or if you interview someone the same technique will apply: “According to an interview conducted with Jane Que on February 3, 2014…). If you have a source and can’t identify the author, go with “unknown author” to make sure you have that element stated as well.
