What method evaluation?
Oral Evaluation
- Provides immediate feedback to speakers.
- May give after each presentation, or to all speakers at the end
of class.
- Allows for teachable moments to be "planned" into the
schedule.
- May be forgotten or misinterpreted by speakers in the "let-down"
after the presentation performance.
Written Evaluation
- Provides a record of feedback to speakers.
- Encourages more thoughtful and deliberate feedback.
- Evaluation forms facilitate consistency in feedback from speaker
to speaker.
- Evaluation forms facilitate application of all criteria to each
speaker.
You may combine oral and written feedback, e.g. student oral feedback
and faculty written feedback.
Who to evaluate?
You may evaluate the speaker, audience members or
both.

EVALUTING SPEAKERS---The method you choose depends
upon how much weight you place on preparation for performance.
- Evidence of Outside Preparation
- Speaking notes-- key words for main ideas and
points.
- Speaking outline--key words arranged in an outline
format plus names, technical terms, statistics, or other difficult-to-remember
items.
- Preparation outline--A formal, complete sentence
outline that details the student's plan of the speech. It includes
the thesis statement, main points, supporting materials and other
elements of the speech.
- Bibiliography. An assignment requiring research
should include a formal bibliography using a standard bibliographic
format.
- Performance Evaluation--Performances are evaluated
in-class or are video-taped for evaluation outside of class.
- In-class evaluation may be completed by
- the entire class
- small group of peer evaluators
- a practice group before the in-class presentation
- a faculty member
- Out-side evaluation of video-tape is
used when the evaluator is to spend more time on the evaluation
or the speaker writes a self-evaluation.
- speaker self-evaluation--self-reflection
of strengths & weaknesses of presentation
- peer evaluation--detailed feedback given
to the speaker
- faculty evaluation--more detailed evaluation
of the speech or a strategy for strategy for time-shifting
to maintain the class' presentation schedule.
- Self-evaluation by speaker
EVALUATING AUDIENCE MEMBERS
- Participation as audience members--
- Do they ask questions of the speaker?
- Do they give written or oral feedback that is
appropriate to the assignment?
- Short feedback forms encourage active listening.
- Learning from the Presentation--Can audience members
- demonstrate what they learned from the presentation
in writing or on a test?
- identify what they learned about giving an oral
presentation in writing or on a test?
