Rhetorical Situations (This is your most important and detailed section. Consider writing two to three paragraphs. Be sure to explain yourself.) Who is the speaker’s target audience? What is the speaker’s purpose? What does the speaker want the audience to do with the information they are presented with? What is the context of the TED Talk?

What rhetorical appeals (reason, emotion, credibility) does the speaker use to help strengthen the argument? Evidence (Don’t just summarize the talk. Write at least one solid paragraph with detailed examples as well as explain how the evidence supports the speaker’s argument.) What types of evidence does the speaker use? Does the evidence seem credible, timely, and relevant? Why, or why not? What additional information do you want to know about the topic? Presentation (In a paragraph, consider both the argument’s structure and the speaker’s actual presentation skills.) How does the speaker introduce the topic and engage the audience? Does the speaker conclude the talk in an effective and memorable way? Does the speaker use good presentation skills while delivering the message? Consider use of images or other visual aids, vocal qualities, use of humor, body language, connection with the audience, and so forth.
