GRIPE SPEECH
DUE DATE:
Tuesday, October 7, 2014
OBJECTIVE:
To help get you feeling comfortable about speaking in front of an audience and
to help you make the transition from informing to persuading.
ASSIGNMENT:
All of us have pet peeves or issues that drive us crazy. These are easy for us
to complain about to others. You will choose a pet peeve or issue that is
driving you crazy.
First,
present your difficult situation. Your gripe may be serious or tongue-in-cheek,
but be creative. For example, don’t just talk about bad drivers; describe the
scenario in detail.
Be sure not
to attack individuals personally. Also, do not attack religious or cultural
groups, because individuals in those groups will take it personally. The point
of this is not to make someone feel bad. However, politicians and celebrities
are ok; just do not get nasty.
Second,
present your ideal solution to the problem. No use in complaining if you don’t
have any solutions in mind. Your solution may be either viable or impossible to
implement. Violence is not an acceptable solution.
Your speech
should be approximately 2 minutes long. It can be as short as 1 ½ minutes or as
long as 3 minutes without penalty.
