With my two persuasive speeches, I was very good at finding valid and supporting sources that helped prove my thesis. However, I did not use any professional journals, and could have benefited from going beyond the basic sources to more scientific data. With the “Persuasive I Speech”, my quality and variety of arguments was very good considering the fact that I used three different reasoning processes to persuade my audience then followed the argument with supporting evidence. Also, I did not use any sort of traditions or assumptions to back my argument through knowledge gained in this class. I started my speech writing process for Persuasive I speech the same way that I did all my other speeches. I would create a topic and then research supporting data to back my topic. Then, I open Microsoft Word and basically free write my speech adding in the researched evidence I found when needed. Once I did that, I would leave the speech alone and come back and edit the next couple of days to get the wording
