Persuasive Project Proposal Guide
Hi Seniors!
Since each of you have individual topics, unique ideas, are
educated in your topic, I'm going to offer you the
opportunity to create your own final project related to your
research.
- You've researched.....NOW.....Share your opinion!
Although lessons are always tentative, this is what I'm planning for the next few weeks so make
sure to complete the following questions as thoroughly and seriously as possible.
- Decide on a theme-related, research-supported message you want to share with an
audience.
- Decide what you want your audience to do or believe.
- Search the Internet - find 3-4 organizations which fit your audience profile and might be
effected by your presentation (we're not looking to get sued or start a riot, we're only
sharing the information we've found)
- Create a table including e-mail addresses, snail mail addresses, name(s) of contact people,
purpose(s) of organizations, etc.
- Create a Power point presentation to add to our class website (4 class days)
- Send url of slide show to each related organization
- Write a business letter to one organization to support presentation (1 class day) this will
be mailed
- Present your research findings and project to the class -- 5-7 minutes (2-3 class days)
FOR TODAY...
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS in a document (retype questions), include
audience chart, print, and submit by the end of the hour:
- �What message, related to your theme, would you most like to share?
- �Why do you feel it's important to share this message?
- �What do you want your audience to ultimately DO or BELIEVE?
- �Describe the audience that might BEST benefit from your project and information:
When you are finished......
- Search the Internet - find 3-4 organizations which fit your desired audience profile and
might be effected by your presentation (we're not looking to get sued or start a riot, we're
only sharing the information we've found)
- Create a table including urls, snail mail addresses, name(s) and e-mails of contact people,
purpose(s) of organizations, etc.

Persuasive Project Analysis
- What message, related to your theme, would you most like to share?
I would like my audience to know that gun control is a serious issue that must be
regulated by the federal government.
- Why do you feel it's important to share this message?
From my research, I have concluded that too many children and innocent adults are
dying because of lack of control in gun issuance, handling, training, and usage.
- What do you want your audience to ultimately DO or BELIEVE?
I want my audience to believe that gun control is needed. I then want them to each
write their representatives expressing this need.
- Describe the audience that might BEST benefit from your project and information:
I believe the people who might best benefit from my gun control project are new
parents. They probably haven't thought that far ahead yet about guns and their
new babies. I think it might also be beneficial to high school students who are close
to age when they can purchase a gun.
