For the Unit 9 Assignment, you will design a slide presentation, video, or other approved digital media format using the ideas from your Unit 8 persuasive essay. The purpose is to share your argument for change with your community, inspiring your audience to change how they think about the topic. Develop a digital media presentation that is designed to have a strong impact on the audience by revising the draft you shared in this week’s discussion. Your digital media presentation is not necessarily testing your design skills, though you should certainly try to practice the design suggestions provided in the Writing Center resources. More importantly, you are practicing your composition skills by applying persuasive strategies in a new context with visual media. You will demonstrate visual rhetoric skills by combining text and images to compel your audience to recognize the importance of your argument for change.
Your presentation will need to include the following: Title slide (for a slide presentation) or opening credits (for a video) A clear argument for change in your community (the one you have been writing about throughout the course). Your thesis statement. A minimum of 8–10 slides (slide presentation, not including the title and references slide) or approximately a 5- to 7-minute (video). Research from at least four credible sources to support the main message. These can be sources from your essay. Minimally, two information-oriented visuals like a chart, diagram, or infographic to represent key information in your argument. 3–4 photos or relevant clip art. A visually engaging design template that reinforces the overall theme of the presentation. Demonstration of the design principles from the Unit 9 readings, such as trimming text and using a color scheme. A concluding slide with a closing technique, such as a call to action. Reference slide (for a slide presentation) or an attached Word document (for a video).
