Course Description

A broad study of the speaking and listening experience. Students perform and evaluate their skills. Voice and articulation and the organization and presentation of ideas are covered.

The online+ HyFlex version of this course also addresses the way in which the basic competencies are manifested when adapted to a non-face-to-face context.

 

Course Learning Objectives (CLOs)

At the end of this course, students will be able to:

CLO 1: Students will be able to construct effective oral-style messages of varying communication purposes, including informing, illustrating and persuading and will be able to adapt their content, organization, language, and delivery to the needs, interests and listening skills of any given listener(s).

 

CLO 2: Students will be able to recognize the components of the basic communication process as they are manifested in public, group, interpersonal, and mass communication contexts.

 

CLO 3:  Students will be able to use the standard performance criteria in other to provide substantive oral and written assessment of their own performance effectiveness as well as that of communicators in any given encounter—including peers.

 

CLO 4:  Students will be able to utilize extemporaneous presentational delivery style, including the “conversational”/expressive vocal delivery mode--whether presenting in-person or into a camera. 

 

CLO 5:  Students will be able to perform appropriate listening behaviors, including the use of attending, processing, and responding techniques and will recognize the role of nonverbal communication cues.

 

CLO 6: Students will be able to recognize how contextual & culture-based dynamics shape all factors in the sending and receiving of messages (both verbal and nonverbal).

 Listening Reflection Journals

·         This journal constitutes part III of the five part Listening Unit which will exist as a self-paced, “background“ assignment throughout the last 4 weeks of the semester  which will result in a minimum of four and a maximum of five entries.  The information for the Full Listening Module Unit is explained on a separate assignment page ( page pending).

Minimum listing = Internet source citations must list at the very least, the [1] URL, [2] the Title of the particular Webpage you used, [3] the Date that you accessed the page & [4] (If available) the last date that the page itself was updated. It is not sufficient to just list "web" or to just list a URL.  

·         The “Buddy System” - During the first week of class, you will have an opportunity to match up with another member(s) of the class, so that you can serve as each other’s “support buddies” throughout the semester. Some of your collaborations will be specified within the directions of a given assignment but you are encouraged to consult with each other on your own. 

·         Oral Assignments

o   {Q} There will be at least 3 “Quick” presentations which are short, less formal talks (usually 1-3 minutes, prepared in advance, but no submitted outline is required. At least two will be delivered virtually but in real time. Counts toward classwork points).  Included in this category: Introduce-a-Classmate, Show & Tell, Children’s Story Telling. Details for each will be located in the ”Presentations” folder within the Course Documents section of Blackboard.

o   {M} There will be four “Major” Presentations. Details for each will be specified in a formal, comprehensive assignment sheet [located online] which specifies the various applicable details (topic, purpose, time length, visual aids, etc.) .  All Major presentations require the student to submit a hardcopy organizational document: either a speech outline /or/an analysis paper (and some presentations will also require a preliminary submission).  The quality and correctness of this outline/analysis paper contribute to the grading for that presentation.  Also see the linked Criteria & Rubrics page. First two major presentations = up to 100 points each;  the last two=  up to 115 points each.   Included in this category are:  Informative Presentation, Persuasive Presentation, Team Project, and one to be selected from these types: Oral Interpretation of Narrative/Article Commentary, Combo Presentation, Demonstration Speech, Special Occasion, Social Justice.  Details for each will be located in the ”Presentations” folder within the Course Documents section of Blackboard.

o   In most cases, deadlines for Asynchronous , uploaded presentations will be Fridays 5:59pmEST. Peer Review postings will be due by Sunday 11:59pmEST.

·         Participatory Activities

o   There are several units that will be covered in class through student readings & work that prepared in advance to be discussed and/or applied in class (for example, brainstorming, discussion board posting, search for samples, field observation, etc.)

·         Written assignments  {details,  submission specifications, and grading rubrics  will be available in the respective assignment pages which will be located in the ”Presentations” folder within the Course Documents section of Blackboard. Here is an overview of the types of written assignments.

o   Speech Outlines  - 2 for each major presentation: ( preliminary – submitted via Blackboard assignment drop) & final versions – submitted in advance via Blackboard assignment drop for synchronous presentations or submitted via Mindtap video upload tool  for asynchronous presentations).

o   Self-Critiques – three will be required; one will be optional. Each will follow different specifications to be provided via separate assignment pages. The required self-critiques include (1) a beginning-of-course skill self-assessment, (2) a personal postmortem of a designated major presentation and (3) completion of a point-by-point self-critique form. The optional self-analysis is an end-of-the-semester essay evaluating the degree & type of personal progress you have made. One of these can be done as an oral submission.

o   Peer Reviews – These are opportunities to give feedback to your classmates. Three formats will be used-based on the presentation context. (1) Filling in a presentation-specific rating sheet provided by the professor (2) brief reaction statements to 1-2 classmates’ video-recorded presentation ( via the Mindtap system) (3) Oral spontaneous  open ended commentary on strengths, & areas for improvement.

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY:

Cheating and plagiarism in any form will not be tolerated in any Communication and the Arts course and will be dealt with severely. Cheating on any test, paper, or other project will, at the discretion of the instructor, result in failure for that assignment, no-credit [ zero] for that assignment, failure for the course, and/or further disciplinary action at the program, College, and/or University levels. Such further action may include expulsion from the College of Communication and the Arts after review. 

The College of Communication and the Arts' policy defines academic dishonesty as including, "but not limited to, cheating on tests and other course assignments and providing or receiving information without acknowledging the source. Cheating by plagiarism includes, but is not limited to, copying of text or research assignments, using another person's papers, research or assignments without citation, and representing work as the student's own, which is, in actuality, another's work."

Web material which is not fully credited is considered plagiarized. 

The College of Communication and the Arts' policy says: "Record of failure of a course because of cheating or plagiarism will be kept on file by the Dean's Office. Subsequent cheating or plagiarism will result in a recommendation of expulsion from the University."
