Require students to watch a videotape of their practice or final presentation to ensure they reflect on their presentation skills.

Action:

  • Assign students to record a practice talk for a peer. Students can use software on a phone, tablet, or computer to record the talk.
  • Ask students to write-up what they can improve in their presentation. This can be based upon watching the video by themselves, with you, or with a peer.
  • Have students complete the rubric such as one of the oral communication rubrics provided here.

Reason:

  • This can enable students to take an audience perspective on their presentation.
