  3. Leading To False belief that presentations were flawless and worthy of higher scores

  4. Causes for Undesired Condition • Inexperience in critical evaluation • Limited time to formulate critique • Lack of confidence in expressing honesty • Fear of losing newly acquired friendships • Fear of looking like “the mean one” • Fear of receiving “revenge” comments

  5. Digital Video Recording • Allows uploading of files to a server • Allows repeated playback for review • Allows individual or group access

  6. Written Response to Video-recorded Presentation • Provides time and space distance from in-class events • Facilitates less stressful review of presentation delivery • Prompts quantitative and qualitative analysis of performance • Allows recognition and acknowledgement that there is room for improvement

  7. Additional Changes • Short “reflective” discussion board postings about presentation experience • Rubric for presentations • Rubric for short written assignments • Rubric for in-class duties/activities

  8. My Role • Provide examples whenever possible • Model critical commentary in class • Elicit written responses with clear prompts • Coordinate with course developer • Ensure recording / uploading of video files

  9. Expected Outcomes • Literal “second looks” at performance • Awareness of weak points in delivery • Evaluation according to rubrics • Transfer from written to spoken comments • Confidence in expressing criticism • Tools to develop effective presentations
