18 Actuate Speech Topics

(Oxford, United Kingdom)
Here's my actuate speech topics list for every high school and college friend who dies for the best speech ideas for her or his speech class curriculum. Due to the education tradition here in the United Kingdom I use the term actuate rather than actuative. But that's just a matter of minor importance :-)
Speeches to actuate are designed to arouse and solicit action by your audience members. You have not only to convince them of your point of view - you attempt to change the whole mental process which leads to committment and sole agreement to require themselves to act as you insist on.
My examples of actuate Speech Topics are:
To Aid In:
1. Aid in safety and health precautions at your college campus.
2. Aid in support of women's empowerment in society.
3. Aid in the achievement of the UN Millennium development goals.
To Sign:
1. Sign in to a community of tutors.
2. Sign the petition on / against ... (fill in your choice)
3. Sign, seal and deliver a This I Have to Do Absolutely list and stick with it!
To Get:
1. Get the best college tuition program.
2. Get the most out of your homework with less effort.
3. Get a flu shot at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
To Volunteer:
1. Volunteer and travel abroad in Asia and enhance understanding between the western world and Asia.
2. Volunteer at a local elementary school.
3. Volunteer in our local campaign office of ... (fill in the candidate of your choice)
To Join:
1. Join the Donor Registry.
2. Join a healthy eating lifestyle.
3. Join the Simpsons fan club.
To Defend:
1. Defend the freedom of speech in our Constitution.
2. Defend a just cause in the neighbourhood.
3. Defend and protect the barrier reefs and become an ocean activist.
For example, the general purpose is to actuate. The specific speech purpose of actuate speech topic number 1 on top than would be:
The audience members will aid in safety and health precautions at our college campus.
Good luck and success to all!
