Our last seminar session was focused on tools for peer assessment. Next Tuesday January 29th I will suggest some tools to help teachers when they have to assess their students' speaking performances. There are plenty of rubrics that can be used but now I would like to recommend this one from http://www.readwritethink.org/ because it is really easy to use and designed to fit any topic or subject area. The rubric proposed allows teachers to assess students in several key areas of oral presentation. Students are scored on a scale of 1- 4 in three major areas.
The first area is Delivery, which includes
eye contact, and voice inflection.
The second area, Content/Organization,
scores students based on their knowledge and understanding of the topic being
presented and the overall organization of their presentation.
The third area,
Enthusiasm/Audience Awareness, measures students' enthusiasm
towards the topic and their ability to convey the message effectively to their intended audience.
Give
students the oral presentation rubric ahead of time so that they know and
understand what they will be scored on. Discuss each of the major areas and how
they relate to their oral presentation.
Your strategy of allocating this worthwhile piece of information here is appreciated. I am sure this might be advantageous for a majority of apprentices. Continue updating.
