I. INTRODUCTION____ /10 points total

____(3) Attention-getter: Give an example, tell a story, present a quotation (cite source), or make a startling statement. (See p. 381) – Needs to be special, engaging, catchy, compelling, or memorable.
____(2) State your name and briefly introduce your topic.

II. BODY ___/30 points total

______(10 points)
A. Main Point 1: Briefly define and describe the skill. Briefly describe the skill of Perception Checking or “I” Language (depending on which skill you chose) by explaining it in your own words. This is one way to adapt to the audience.

How would you describe it to a friend?

Show your understanding of the skill by explaining it in your own words. Be sure to use relevant terms and vocabulary from the textbook, but define them in your own words.

Include ONE quote from the textbook to elaborate on the skill and cite the textbook in APA format at the end of the outline. It should be limited to Chapters 3 or 6 where you take your quote (depending on which skill you chose). Personalize it.

When you speak, only state the source’s last name and date, not the full citation.

___(1) Transition into main point 2 (See p. 383).

______(10 points)
B. Main Point 2: Explain how you thought AND communicated BEFORE learning about this skill.

Provide a detailed, clear and specific example of an actual situation, relationship issue, or conversation where you thought AND communicated poorly.

The example here is too general: I chose the relationship with my older sister. Our relationship has been very toxic with little support and I felt a power imbalance.I tend to avoid and assume that “siblings are supposed to bully each other” instead of trying to build a stronger relationship using “I” Language. To make it more specific, you would need to add a specific time where you made the assumption, what you said, did, her reaction, response, behaviors and the results to earn full points.

Include the consequences of communicating poorly.

For “I” language, your example will involve the consequences of using “You” language.
For Perception Checking, your example will involve the consequences of acting on your assumptions.
The issue should be of importance to the field of interpersonal communication. (Not dirty dishes, or chores etc. Too general.)

_____(1) Transition into main point 3 (See p. 383).

______(10 points)

C. Main Point 3: Explain how you thought AND communicated AFTER learning about this skill.

Provide a detailed, clear, and specific example of an actual situation, relationship issue, or conversation where you thought AND communicated more effectively using the new skills. If you haven’t used it as of now, then write the exact script of what you would or could say, using the interpersonal relationship you chose for this presentation.

Demonstrate the results of using ALL parts of the skill. For “I” Language, your example will involve the result of using “I” Language, including a complete “I” Language statement, clearly applying and stating ALL 5 elements of the formula.

For Perception Checking, your example will involve the result of using Perception Checking, including a complete Perception Checking statement, clearly applying and stating ALL elements of the formula.

Be sure to review all elements of the skill selected; start general with the overview of the situation and then give a specific example describing all parts of the skill.
