Assignment Overview
In this module, you will be completing the SLP assignment before doing the Case Assignment. After you have completed the SLP assignment, return to this page to work on the Case Assignment.

Case Assignment
Prepare and deliver an informative speech that would be approximately two minutes (equates to two typed pages) in length. The speech should follow your outline completed for the SLP in Module 2.

An informative speech is one that aims to inform the audience about a given topic. We were all born in a city, a township, or the country. We call this our hometown. This will be the topic of your speech, and will require research. A minimum of two references are required and must be included and credited within the speech. Always make an effort to personalize your content and engage your audience. Your hometown has a story to tell, so consider researching demographics, location, and historical significance to get you started. Use the online information below to also assist.
