Objective: To expand an informative speech into a television news package Type of speech: Informative Point value: 5% of course grade (Note: The original informative speech is worth 10% of the course grade) Requirements: (a) References: 3; (b) Length: 30 seconds; (c) Visual aid: 3; (d) Outline: Yes; (e) Prerequisite reading: Chapter 14 (Whitman & Foster, 1987), Chapter 15 (McKerrow, Gronbeck, Ehninger, & Monroe, 2000), Chapter 14 (Andrews, Andrews, & Williams, 2002), Chapter 13 (Zettl, 1985), Chapter 11 (Gibson, 1991), Chapter 9 (Berner, 1991); (f) Additional requirements: Need use of television camera and editing station This assignment demonstrates the interrelationship between speech communication and mass media. Having students take the components of an informative speech and placing the components into a “news package” teaches students how to effectively organize a television news package. Moreover, this assignment teaches students basic television production and news techniques (e.g., source attribution, editing techniques) and illustrates the value of effective visual aids to communicate the information. 相似文献

Objective: To integrate speaking practice with rhetorical theory Type of speech: Persuasive Point value: 100 points (i.e., 30 points based on peer evaluations, 30 points based on individual performance, 40 points based on the group presentation), which is 25% of course grade Requirements: (a) References: 7–10; (b) Length: 20–30 minutes; (c) Visual aid: Yes; (d) Outline: Yes; (e) Prerequisite reading: The appropriate chapter (e.g., generic, feminist, metaphoric, fantasy theme, pentadic criticism, neo-Aristotelian) in Foss (1996); (f) Additional requirements: Each group member should be given an equal amount of time to speak and an equal amount of work in preparing the final presentation This assignment gives students a chance to engage in the study of popular culture as public address, giving them insight into their own worlds and the ways popular culture may help shape/instruct that world. This assignment also allows students to engage in critical analysis, which not only means that students can learn about rhetorical theory, but they also get to engage in the types of analysis used by their instructor during the course. 相似文献

Objective: To learn about candidates for a political office by presenting and listening to speeches about the candidates and their platforms Type of speech: Informative Point value: 100 points, which is 10% of course grade Requirements: (a) References: Minimum of 3 from recent and varying publications; (b) Length: 5–7 minutes; (c) Visual aid: No; (d) Outline: Yes; (e) Prerequisite reading: No; (f) Additional requirements: None In a typical college-level public speaking class, many students are young adults who have the opportunity, perhaps for the first time, to vote for candidates for national, state, and local offices. Yet, adults in the 18–24 age group are the least likely to vote due to a lack of time, low interest, or cynicism about politics (National Public Radio, 2002). This speech provides student-citizens with (1) information about candidates that can help them determine if or for whom they will vote, (2) the opportunity to discuss their perceptions of political processes with peers, and (3) the experience of crafting an informative speech using up-to-date information. 相似文献

Courses: This assignment can be implemented in wide-range of courses that have research-related goals at the undergraduate or master's degree level. Applicable courses include Research Methods, Capstone, Interpersonal Communication, Organizational Communication, Intercultural Communication, Health Communication, Gender, and Family Communication. Objectives: This assignment serves to increase students’ information literacy related to research gathering, critique, analysis, and implementation. For this assignment, students will: (a) identify and examine a news article that uses research; (b) trace the origins and conduct an analysis of the research study cited in the news article or a related research study; and (c) deliver an informative discussion that explains the news article, selected research study, and connect their analysis to research and research methodology principles. In all, this assignment improves students' media literacy related to social media and technology, and increases student affect for research practices. Finally, this assignment describes one model of using curriculum assessment to generate innovative pedagogical opportunities. 相似文献

Objective: To select a charitable organization to receive the class monetary donation Type of speech: Persuasive Point value: 100 points, which is 20% of course grade Requirements: (a) References: 5; (b) Length: 5–7 minutes; (c) Visual aid: Yes; (d) Outline: Yes; (e) Prerequisite reading: Chapter 15 (Lucas, 2001), Chapter 7 (McKerrow, Gronbeck, Ehninger, & Monroe, 2000); (f) Additional requirements: None The five-step motivated sequence organizational pattern (i.e., attention, need, satis faction, visualization, action) is an effective model for persuasive speaking, but students often select topics inappropriate for this format. This format, however, is perfect for trying to convince an audience they should do something such as give money to a charity. This speech gets students involved on an emotional as well as an academic level and encourages them to think of people other than themselves. This assignment also teaches students how to effectively persuade an audience that may have a different agenda. 相似文献

Courses: Disaster Day (DD) is a single-class activity designed for public speaking classrooms, but could also be applied to courses addressing small group communication. Objectives: DD integrates fundamental skills of the basic speech course, fosters participation through group work, and introduces new concepts and skills. By the end of the activity, students should be able to (1) display fundamental speech skills by researching a topic quickly, organizing an informative speech, and delivering a presentation; (2) function effectively in a group by working cooperatively on a project with a tight deadline; and (3) understand basic elements of upcoming skills by creating an informative and visually appealing presentation for a mass audience before having visual aid instruction. DD has similar learning objectives to activities occurring later in the term (i.e., graded speeches) in order to introduce the students to expectations of future, more advanced assignments. As such, I do not treat DD as a graded activity, but rather a fun, low-risk, and useful practice opportunity. 相似文献

Objective: To field questions from a room of students simulating a press conference Type of speech: Impromptu Point value: 10 participation points. To receive all 10 points, students must (1) address three questions from the lectern and ask three questions from their seat (3 points), (2) respond thoroughly to each question by providing a supportive explanation (5 points), and (3) remain composed at the lectern (2 points) Requirements: (a) References: 0; (b) Length: 1–2 minutes, (c) Visual aid: No; (d) Outline: No; (e) Prerequisite reading: No; (f) Additional requirements: None This activity requires students to think on their feet while challenging them to remain composed when addressing controversial topics derived by their classmates. The purpose of this activity is to orient students to impromptu speaking while having them engage in a speaking environment seldom rehearsed in the classroom, yet one that exists within society. 相似文献

Courses: Critically fun is a single-class activity for communication classes discussing persuasive messages, the effects of mass media, or rhetorical analysis (e.g. public speaking, communication theory, mass media, and rhetoric). Objectives: By the end of the activity, students should be able to analyze critically the rhetorical significance of the setting, visual features, message content, humor, persuasive elements, and impact of a humorous, political artifact. This activity was designed to help students engage in critical thinking, evaluation, and assessment of humor. Although this can function as a non-graded, in-class activity, it could be modified into an out-of-class assignment for traditional, hybrid, or online courses. 相似文献

Objective: To lead a brief training session over a distance-learning network Type of speech: Informative Point value: 20% of course grade Requirements: (a) References: Not specified; (b) Length: 15 minutes; (c) Visual aid: Yes; (d) Outline: No; (e) Prerequisite reading: Chapters 12–16, 18 (Bailey, 2002); (f) Additional requirements: None This assignment recognizes the growing importance of computer-mediated com munication in professional contexts and is designed to introduce undergraduate students to the fundamentals and challenges of giving a speech (as part of a training session on web design) over a distance-learning network via live interactive video. Teleconferencing is becoming a popular means of doing business for companies whose employees, clients, and contractors may be geographically scattered. More over, a number of companies now offer some employees the option of working from their homes at least a few days a week. Videoconferencing from home (in the form of an inexpensive web cam, speakers, and microphone connected to an Internet- ready computer) allows telecommuters to exchange information with colleagues conveniently and affordably. Finally, distance-learning courses, especially at multi- campus universities, are becoming more popular not only as a way to manage exploding student populations, but also to serve the needs of students pursuing degrees at multiple campuses. 相似文献
