Are we presenting our speeches in class?
Yes.
What would you like us to have our speeches on?
Whatever you like.
What are some examples of modern day issues we could write on?
Can we use visual aids?
@Emily Feel free to present on a topic that is of interest to you...keeping in mind that you will be using the methods from the guidelines.
@Anna, you may, but I'd prefer that you focus on the speech itself.
Does the issue have to be controversial...or can it just be about something important?
Would you prefer us to use notecards or to write out our speeches?

Your speeches do not need to be on a controversial topic.
If we use outside info to back us up do we have to reference it and make a bibliography
No bibliography is required.
How long must it be
5 minutes minimum
If I think that I have beat down all the arguments in my confirmation can I omit the refutation
Where are the directions?!?!?!?!?
@Porter Please include all the steps, even those which may not seem essential in the context.
@Rebekah page 27-28 of the coursepack & online at the Cicero's Rhetoric page posted on the blog.

Thanks for letting me know! I think that it is one of your fellow students.
Can our speeches be over 5 minutes, (reasonably) or is there a strict limit?
Do we have to use 10 different literary term or is it okay to use 1 term more than once and count it with the required 10?
what if we can't seem to fit 10 methods in are speech?
@Cassie, your speech cannot go over 8 minutes.
@Anna You have to use 10 different methods.
@Madelyn, you should be able to fit 10 methods in. Email me if you need ideas.
Can we use random class mates and bring them up front for examples
Oh and I forgot can we use more than ten of Cicero's Rhetoric!!!!!
