Speech Outline Revised
Part A: AUDIENCE AND OCCASION ANALYSIS
Specific Goal: My audience will understand the signs of Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome and what it
does to the body.
Pattern of Organization: I have chosen to use the topical pattern of organization because it
seems the easiest way for me to deliver my topic and have my audience understand it.
Audience Analysis: I will use words that will be easy to understand as well as pictures on my
slides. I will also use a lot a personal examples so it doesn't seem like a one in a million chance
that they will come across it.
Occasion Analysis: My speech is appropriate because it is something I know well, and have
done research on before. I also know that most, if not all, of the students have never heard of
Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome.
