Oral Presentation

Lesson Procedure: Before the oration, ask your students about the main goal of their
presentations. As they start presenting, carefully observe their presentational skills and
how they present. Are they nervous? Do they speak fast? You might help them calm
down.

Lesson Assessment Method: The following checklist (rubric) is used to evaluate

students’ public speaking skills and on-stage presentational performance. Students will
receive an assessment report that highlights weaknesses, strengths, and suggestions to
improve.

Lesson Reflection: As the evaluator of public speaking skills, you have to make sure
that your comments don’t affect your students’ self-esteem and their perceptions of their
abilities. Reward their strengths and give them feedback to transform weaknesses into
positive qualities. The most difficult part of the evaluation process is to attend to all the
speaking aspects that need to be judged.
