    Default thesis statement

    Hello teachers, I am very confused with writing thesis statement about my presentation. In my presentation , I would like to talk about " well logging tool (one of the device use in well testing) " but I am a bit blur about how to persuade my audiences with my thesis statement. So I would like to get your suggestions on how to write my thesis statement.

    Thanks in advance =)
    good day.

    One sentence at a time!

    Hello teachers, I am very confused about writing a thesis statement for my presentation.
    In my presentation, I would like to talk about a 'Well logging tool' (one of the devices used in well testing) but I am a bit blurry on how to persuade an audience with my thesis statement.
    So, I would appreciate any suggestions on how to write a thesis statement.

    Well-logging may require hyphenation, you'll have to look it up.

    good day.
    The intent of a thesis statement is not to persuade but to inform. A good thesis statement gives direction as to what the rest of the speech will be about.

    For example:
    The Moon is made of Green Cheese (Thesis)
    1. Sometimes the moon appears to be green (point one)
    2. There are holes in the moon which look like the holes in Swiss cheese (point two)
    3. The moon is round, like a round of cheese (point three)
    Given all of this information, I conclude that the moon is made of green cheese.
