Week 6 - PAIBOC

Mapping out assessment item two using PAIPOC for my maiden parliamentary speech.

PAIBOC stands for Purpose, Audience, Information, Benefits, Objectives and Content. It is a planning system that can be used for almost any structure of writing. I was first introduced to PAIBOC in semester one, year one and have been using ever since!

Mapping out my speech for assessment item one, I will consider the length, aim of the speech, structure of the speech and the ultimate goal I wish the speech to achieve.

Breaking it down with PAIBOC:

PURPOSE: To persuade the audience to elect me for parliament.

AUDIENCE: The audience I will be targeting is my local electorate.

INFORMATION: Information my speech will include will focus on the audience’s needs and passions. Specifically it will include information such as local and community development, tourism boost and focus on the benefits the community will receive from my election.

BENEFITS: To let the audience know the benefits of my polices and the benefits of my election. The speech will be persuasive with the use of rhetoric language. It will appeal to the audience and relate to them and their needs.

OBJECTIVES: Objections may include worries from the audience such as how the benefits of my election may affect them. From the cost of the policies to the effect on the community they will have. These objections will all be addressed openly and honestly to allow the audience to see exactly where I stand and that there is no hidden agenda.

CONTENT: The context for my parliamentary speech will focus on the speeches benefits for the audience. Such as the policies proposed like local and community development and tourism within the area. These policies will be positioned to influence the audience on the positive outcome they can have from my election.
