Part B: Outline Rough Draft
As you develop the outline for
your PowerPoint presentation, you will be confirming your thesis from Week 4, then adding the main ideas with bullets and the four sources to be used.
Remember, the first slide in your PowerPoint presentation will act as your title slide. On that slide, you will include the title of the presentation, your name as the presenter, the school’s name, and the date.
In your completed template for Week 5, which will be used to guide your Week 7 PowerPoint presentation, include and submit the following components:
·
Title page (title of speech, name of presenter, audience prepared for—school or institution, and date)
· You can use this information to create your first slide in PowerPoint.
· General topic, specific topic, and thesis statement
·
Three main points with at least
two working sub-points that will make up the body of the speech—a sub-point is a word or short phrase that summarizes the information you will develop in this section.
·
Reference section with a minimum of
four authoritative, outside scholarly sources
· These sources can include the source titles referenced during Week 4.
· Anonymous authors or web pages are not acceptable.
· References must be written in APA format with hanging indents, in alphabetical order, and with everything double-spaced.
