Damien Mander Discussion Opportunity

Overview: The goal of this assignment/discussion is for you to watch Damien Mander's Ted Talk and consider the elements of his talk that you might want to include in your delivery style, speech structure, and content. Pay particular attention to his use of story telling to build credibility (ethos) and emotion (pathos). By sharing your thoughts on those elements with your classmates, you may be able to add to your toolbox of public speaking strategies, and incorporate those in your upcoming persuasive speech assignment.

Keep in mind that he isn't strictly using the structure I want you to use-but you may see some elements of it in his speech.

Requirements: Submit a response to the discussion that includes at least two observations about his use of supporting material.

Directions: Watch the video embedded above and take notes his use of ethos, pathos, and logos. You might create three columns and put examples from his speech into the appropriate column (ethos, pathos, or logos). When you've watched the video in its entirety, highlight the elements that stood out the most for you. Respond to the discussion with at two examples of his use of ethos, pathos, or logos.
