I have to speak on something philosophical for my speech class and don't know where to begin. Can anyone help.

Depends on what you mean.  Philosophical in what sense?  The human condition?  Theology?  Analyzation of an epiphany?  So much source material, so little time.\n\nHeck, I could give you a 5-hour philosophical discussion on the joys of sex and chocolate, but somehow I don't think that's what your philosophy class is looking for.

The best thing you can do is PRACTICE.  Write an outline on a couple notecards -- that are the major points of your speech.  Remember those points - and you will be able to talk freely on the topic.  But really, just practice what you need to say - and it will go smooth.

State what your original views were, what they are now, and why they did not change.  I assume the views of different philosophers were discussed in your class. Explain why they either confirmed your beliefs or why you didn't agree with them.\n\nThere is nothing wrong with continuing to believe what you do even after you heard other points of view.  Don't let your professor intimidate you in your beliefs.\n\nMaybe your belief is wrong but it is how you see things at this point in your life.  Don't apologize for it.\n\nWhat do you believe? Do you believe God exist and the professor is wanting you to believe otherwise? Or is it vice versa? Either way, stand your ground and don't let him/her intimidate you.  I kind of sense you feel like you are required to change your position after hearing other points of view.  Teachers who don't agree with a student sometimes wants a student to see things their way because they think they are right and the student is wrong.\n\nIf you want help in writing your paper, e-mail me.  Maybe I can help you.

I’d outline the points that I want to make.  Start off with a sentence or two that summarizes your position.\n\nList the points in chronological order (Don't include the numbering system)\n\nFinish by making a similar summary to the opening one that emphasizes your thesis.  For example:\n\nFaith in the one, true God and understanding that His love assures us that He has our best interest in mind provides believers with security and protection from depression.  \n\nPoint 1)\n\nPoint 2)\n\nChronic depression often finds it’s root in fearful anxiety and an understanding of God’s love can alleviate the effect of fear and replace that uncertainty with the confidence and assurance necessary to live a full and productive life.\n\nJohnny

We're doing persuasive speeches this week in my speech class.\n\nA word of advice from my teacher, she likes us to think "outside the box" so to speak. Aka: stay away from the really common subjects. Abortion, gay rights, war in Iraq. Most people have their minds make up completely about them, so it's a hard call.\n\nI've seen people in my class do speeches on why music majors shouldn't have to take biology, why gender selection is bad, why everyone should take a karate or self defense class, the possibilities are pretty much endless. I'm doing mine on why I think my dog's breed is the best dog breed. I was also juggling with why procrastination is bad but I need a visual aid so I can't pull that off. Just think outside the box. You can really make any subject work just as long as you take a side on it. \n\nGood luck to you! My professor says persuasion speeches are the most difficult.

Read about philosophy, psychology, and other interesting topics.  Then you can talk to her about them and sound interesting to her.

You might start out with bringing the class right in on the topic by saying something like...  Can someone give me a definition of "Attitude"?  You may get one or 2 responses.  If you don't get any, then you can jump in with your definition of it.  You might even ask if they can tell you when someone had attitude with them.  Also remember to use a couple of different types of media for your presentation.  It can be slides, writing on chalk board, handouts, etc.  Good luck.

is it a writing class or an english class?\n\nif its english you probably want to stick with literature- compare two characters in the same book or two different books\n\nif its a writing class and the sky is the limit, then Id look at your interests- if you like animals, you could have a thesis around how having pets are beneficial to your health, if you are interested in history, you could have a thesis like "X event changed the world for the better/worse"\n\nPlay to your interests- if youre not interested in writing your paper, chances are your teacher wont be interested in reading it- it really makes a difference

How about how to start a revolution. \nYour teacher would love it if you start quoting Revolution for the Hell of it by Abbie Hoffman. You could also play some 60's music. I know that sounds dumb but it seems cool to me.

Just speak from your heart. Try to think of a main point to make, and then some supporting points. Start with something to get their attention, then end with a summary of what you spoke about. \n\nPractice in front of mirror a few times, don't memorize word for word, just memorize an outline.\n\nMake eye contact with a few people around the room.\n\nTry to avoid saying um...\n\nYou'll do great!

You could include in your essay at least a little respect for the language that you are writing in. For me it is about finding the best or most appropriate word to describe the circumstance without resorting to an expletive or taking the language into the gutter. You could start by rephrasing your request for help. A simple “please help me,” as I have shown a total disregard to my teacher asked me to write an article on respect as an atonement for it. In the end, it will be meaningless, if you ask someone else to do the work for you. You can only move forward as a human being if you learn to respect those who have done so much to educate you. From the person who cleans the classroom, to the head of the school or college you should treat all people with kindness and respect. It is for you to learn how to be the best human being that you can. One day you will be an adult and I hope that you will have tried to put this into practice or your world will be a very shallow place. This is only about two hundred words, but you know the reasons why you are to write the piece. I hope that you will undertake it in the right spirit.

In your intro paragraph, introduce what a transcendentalist believes. Then make each paragraph explain one of those beliefs you listed. You can name some people who were transcendentalists, too... maybe quote them.

Why? \nAre you writing your resume for a teaching job? LOL...\n\nWell, teaching philosophy is about your views and beliefs on teaching. \n1.Knowledge is the most precious thing you gain in this world apart from the materialitic possessions. \nSo, what would you do with the knowelege? \nHow did you first earned the knowledge?\n\n2. You would like to share the knowledge with someone, don't you?\n3. How will you share, you have to teach?. to whom and how?.\n4. Also think about improving the knowedge you obtained from your mentor or teacher.\n\n4. you would like to be a role model to the future young generation, you must be interested in teaching and also you should have certain basic principles that you will adhere while taking on the journey of teaching. \n\nAll these constitutes the principles or philosophy of teaching.\n\nI might not have said all, but a few to start with......

Write your own speech!  If your teacher cares even the slightest bit, he or she will be able to tell you are plagerizing!!!\n\nI'm deeply sorry for my rash answer.  I aparently had no idea that someone could use a free speech to give them ideas for their own original speech.  I suppose my mind IS limited in this manner because I am an English major and have never taken a formal speech class.  Just please be very careful, because colleges are cracking down on plagerism.  Many of my classmates are very scared of getting caught even for things they don't do on purpose.  It's a very tricky line that is easy to cross, so be careful.\n\nAgain, I am sorry for assuming you were going to turn in the free speech.  I may have been taking out opinions on you that I have of other people who use those free paper web sites.  I don't know of any good sites for that purpose, but I'm sure typing in "free speech" in google would do the trick for you.  I'm sorry for offending you.  Thank you for your advice about biting open the possibly cancerous lump in my lip.  I hope you don't mind if I don't take that advice.\n\nGood luck on your speech.
