3 Actuate Speech Topics

by Abigail
( Fort Saskatchewan, Canada)

These actuate speech topics are used by my graduation students between 2001 and 2005 - note that not only the best speech topic gets an A - the development is also a major factor in my persuasive rubric to judge then. It's all about to get them acquainted to improving their communication skills.

Some theoretical and empirical remarks. Public speakers need to kwow exactly what the expected outcome of their speech will be.
You have to work out a clear thesis idea; the goal, the general speech topics statement.

Here are the seven proven examples:

1. I want my audience to attend the next Memorial Day ceremony in their hometown to commemorate all U S men and women who died while in military service.

2. I want my public speaking audience to participate in the local fundraising event to increase awareness of diabetes and the need for research money.

3. I want my audience to agree with Voltaire on his freedom of speech quotation I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

Other actuative or actuate speech topics could be made out of these active verbs:

Serve
Share
Offer

Hope this works for you!

Actuate Speech Topics

I picked one of the actuate speech topics of your example ideas: I want my audience to agree with Voltaire on his freedom of speech quotation I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
And I get an A+ because I succeeded in convincing my class! Thanx a lot!
