Essay #5: Proposing a Solution (600 - 800 words: About 3 pages) 75 pts. (4-7 minutes)

Assignment: Write a speech 600-800 words in length (four to seven minutes of presentation).

Prompt: Write a speech (based on essay #4) proposing a solution to a well-defined problem faced by a community or group to which you may belong. Alternatively, you may address a well-defined problem faced by one of the districts or communities in The Hunger Games. Address your proposal to your audience: one or more members of the group, its leadership, or to outsiders who may be able to contribute to solving the problem. Present your speech to the class to convince them that your ideas are correct.

You will turn in a formal written version of your speech (MLA style).

You will perform your speech in class.   Speech Form: You may give your presentation as a formal speech; in other words, you

may read in front of the class. You may video yourself, put up the video on YouTube and then show it

during class. You may combine the possibilities by, for example, playing a video in the

background as you talk to the class. You may engage others in your presentation as long as they have a clear

role in what you are doing. You may suggest another form.

Possible structures for your presentation: You may act as an attorney arguing in court. You may persuade in part through a skit and then explain what the skit

shows. You make an infomercial. You may pretend that you are a guest on a television talk show. You may use your original format if you clear it with me beforehand.

Organizing your Speech: King followed Monroe’s motivated sequence: A Method in Five Steps!

The five steps of the Monroe motivated sequence attention need satisfaction visualization action

Page 9: 1 a 44 new teams vocabulary game

The Attention Step

In the attention step, speakers call attention to the situation. King, speaking from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, calls attention to Lincoln’s signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, the situation of the Negro today (“One hundred years later, the Negro still is not free.”), and the fact that the words of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence granting all people the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness have not been fulfilled.

The Need Step For the need step, speakers describe the difficulty,

trouble, distress, crisis, emergency, or urgency. King says, “Instead of honoring this sacred obligation [what the Constitution and Declaration of Independence promise], America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check that has come back marked ‘insufficient funds.’” And why have they come to Washington, D.C.? — to “remind America of the fierce urgency of now.”

The Satisfaction Step

In the satisfaction step, speakers tell listeners how to satisfy the need they establish. King says, “We must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead.” To march ahead, he said, “We can never be satisfied.” Then he tells listeners to go back home knowing their situation can and will be changed.

The Visualization

Step

For visualization, speakers offer listeners a vision of what life can be once their solution (offered in the satisfaction step) is adopted. This is where King offers listeners his dream: “I have a dream” offered along with five different descriptions of what life can and will be like in Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, in communities, and around the world.

The Action StepThe final stage is the action step when speakers offer listeners a specific course of action to follow. King’s action step occurs when he asks his audience to “Let freedom ring,” and he uses the phrase at the end of the speech focusing on eight states symbolizing the whole nation.
