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.
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).

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).
·
The approximate length of a Reflection entry = 100-150 words (i.e. 10-15
lines).

Each journal entry should apply different, specified listening-related
topics to one’s own listening habits and skills.
Specific prompts will be given.

attached/
enclosed Criteria & Rubrics page.
·
The instructor will read, assess and score each entry. All entries will
receive 0 – 10 points. As
self-reflections, these entries function more as tools for self development,
within five days of the end of
the posting window, each entry will receive a brief response – in either
written or oral format. Longer responses will be used as necessary for
guidance or correction.

[1] URL,
[2]
the
Title of
the particular Webpage you used, [3]

·
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.
Depending upon the given Instructor, either a point aggregate system
or a percentage assessment system will be used to compute the
semester grade.

Late work policy:
Please be aware of Assignments’ deadlines since there will be little or no
opportunity for late work (case-by-case basis/documentation necessary).
“Extra credit” policy:
Case-by-case basis. Generally, the points for completing Optional

♦
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."
