• Types of performance tasks
• Examples of collaborative tasks
 Questions and Reflections
Teaching and Learning
 Elegantly
simple in
concept
….. but….
 Infinitely
complex in the
reality of it.
Cultural Milieu for EFL
Most language students undertake the study
of a foreign language for “reasons which arise
directly or indirectly out the perceived needs
of the community to which they belong” (Tudor,
1996, p. 128)
Consequently, students (and teachers) may
not undertake the learning of English as a
vehicle for real communication and cross-
cultural understanding.
Result an intercultural gap, There will
likely be barriers to communication, and a
schism in the classroom.
Learning language
 As fundamental
itself as being
human…
…but…
 It is a living, fluid,
highly personalized
process
…. ultimately
transformational and
without end.
Cultures collide in the
classroom
 …..or.. At least they bump into each other
gently.
Cultural assumptions:
visible and hidden
What are some of the cultural assumptions or values?
Of the people in the photo
Of the photographer?
Of the institution or country?
What’s happening?
Intercultural Domain
 Any classroom forms an essential habitat in
the learner’s ecosystem.
 It encompasses the domains of the learning
environment: physical, social, instructional
and psychological.
 However, the EFL classroom adds an
additional dimension – the intercultural
domain – human interaction across cultures
 This affords a new cultural learning
environment that is affected by perceptions
and by the realities of classroom structure,
group processes, classroom climate and
teacher-mediated activities.
Fig.1 Content-centered strategy-based EFL curriculum
the complicated interrelationship between a set of essential components identified
There is no ideal solution
 …. only an idealized
perception of
learning.
 Just as the face in
the center is a blend
of the ideal
attributes of the six
around it, so too is
the ‘best’ way to
learn languages.
Here is my face on that
solution!
 It results from forty
years as an educator,
and twenty years as a
English teacher at a
Japanese university.
Intercultural Task-Based Approach
 Most learning tasks involve speaking foremost
(Several forms of oral discourse.)
 The INTERCULTURE is English for International
Communication as it intersects with Japanese
school culture (as well as for Greek, Chinese, or Spanish
learners of EFL / ESL)
 Performing is EMPHASIZED as the main task
goal (for my particular situation) Speaking and Listening
skills have been ignored in Japan compulsory education and the
University Entrance Examinations.
Rationale for ICTB approach
(Intercultural task-based)
 A central challenge we face as TESOLs is
the problem of getting students to actually
produce language in a new cross-cultural
(classroom) environment.
 Overcoming barriers inherent in the
monolingual classroom needs a restructured
learning experience.
Why ICTB approach?
 By the middle the 21st century, ‘foreign’
language mastery will no longer truly be
needed.
 Just think about what foretells this inevitable
conclusion…..
• Global media presence
• Global economic interdependence
• Computing technology/ artificial intelligence
• Digital and virtual communication tools
• Shrinking planet
• Interconnectivity
• Mega-complexity
So……..
The Paradigm Shift
 Instead of foreign language mastery, what
we really need is…..
Intercultural Communicative
Competence
Rationale for Metacognitive Inculturalization
 Fact: Whether we recognize it or not, all teachers
employ an explicit, mutually-actualized, teacher-
mediated process for intuitively ‘inculturating’
students into the our own classroom culture.
 Risk: Not being ready for changes
 Aim: I am advocating that both the teacher and
students realize this, plan for it, and collaborate.
 How: It is not simply the natural absorption of a
new culture, normally referred to as acculturation,
but rather a contextual and meta-cognitive cross-
cultural classroom training is advocated. (Brooks, 1999)
What is Metacognitive Inculturalization? 1
 Metacognitive inculturization is a theory-
based, yet, practical classroom-focused
instructional approach to cross-cultural
training
 assists language learners in consciously and
unconsciously adapting their own culture
for learning a language (EFL) and
 in acquiring new cultural behaviors to
enhance the communicative environment of
the EFL language classroom.
What is Metacognitive Inculturalization? 2
 It can be used to nurture both the
learners’ understanding of the process
and spark their willingness to embark
on a new journey of cross-cultural
discovery and deeper language
acquisition.
What is Metacognitive Inculturalization? 3
 To equip EFL learners with a specific
repertoire of individual, pair, small
group, and whole class behaviors for
internalizing new patterns of learning,
cognitive strategies, and, most
importantly, for enhancing
interaction between themselves,
with the target culture,
and with the teacher.
How Metacognitive Inculturalization Works
1. Contextual reframing
2. Incorporating old and establishing new
patterns of social interaction
3. Building trust and areas of comfort and
challenge
4. Teaching both communicative instructional
‘content’ tasks and the communication,
intercultural, and learning strategies
5. Reflective assessment of the learning both
the communicative content and the meta-
cognitive content
The context is the learning
environment.
 Any classroom forms an essential
habitat in the learner’s ecosystem, but
it is still only one of many habitats.
This habitat is no longer simply a
classroom.
1. Contextual Reframing
The primary method of reframing the traditional
context for classroom learning is re-defining
the nature of the classroom
 through identifying new purposes for the
classroom as a language-learning
environment.
 by introducing a curriculum content
focused on significant and meaningful
issues
by an evaluation system based on
accomplishing real-life objectives using a
task-based performance approach
Being a fully actualized learner
in EFL classroom should be
like a journey to another
country - even another habitat.
The Environment / Habitat
Cross-Training Environments
 Changing the definition of the
classroom to a wider, global more diverse
set of learning environments (functions)
2. Incorporating old and establishing
new patterns of social interaction
By using social structures and common ways of
organizing behaviors from the students’ common
classroom culture, build up a set of adaptive
communicative learning behaviors.
 Draw upon forms and styles of social
communication they already possess
 Shape these with the students’
awareness and cooperation
 The key is forming and maintaining
culturally-appropriate but evolving
functional groups
Re-defining the classroom
 New Purposes
 New Processes
 New Content
 New Activities / Tasks (performance tasks
involving collaborating)
 New Assessment
 New Focus on broader outcomes
The Art and Science of Our Profession
* Building trust and balancing levels of
comfort (support) with challenge (change)
* Teaching both communicative
instructional ‘content’ = language
tasks ….. and the communication,
intercultural, and learning strategies
* Reflective assessment of learning ---
both the communicative content and the
meta-cognitive content
Studying, planning, and building
are what make great ideas into
an ideology.
Instructional practices for an intercultural
approach to task-based learning
1. Selling approach to reluctant speakers.
2. Authentic tasks and meaningful performances for large
classroom groups.
3. Preparing students for success in performance tasks
4. Setting up evaluation (and reflective assessments)
5. A brief demonstration of performance task projects
6. Using technology and varying classroom infrastructure to
maximize and enhance the instructional environment

One possible approach
 This is only one Model among many.
 It changes the students’ Status or Frame
of Reference
 Make him or her the Explorer, Research,
Philosopher, Scientist…
Learner as Ethnographer
Learners as ethnographers
 Ethnography is the systematic observation and description of
how a language community behaves.
 Integration of linguistic and cultural learning can facilitate communication
and interaction (Byram & Fleming, 1998)
• Comparison of others and self to stimulate reflection on -- and critical analysis
of -- one’s own culture and the target culture they are attempting to acculturate
(English)
• An increase in cross-cultural awareness
• A shift in perspective involving psychological processes of socialisation
This approach affects the design and choice of learner
tasks since language learning is part of a richer,
cultural exploration of the target community. (Corbett,
2003)
E-Learn 2015, Kona, Hawaii
October 19-22, 2015
Culture and Conversational English
Ethnographic approach to studying and creating ‘model’ conversations.
 Transactional (message / content exchange) vs
Interactional (social function)
 How do conversational patterns vary across cultures?
 Interpreting subtexts (implied meanings) - jokes,
irony, unstated criticism, indirect affirmation or
denial
 Even the most simple conversation can allow for such
explorations.
E-Learn 2015, Kona
October 19-22, 2015
Model Conversation Project
 Analyzing language samples
 Collecting exemplars (sample language patterns that
convey important cultural meaning)
 Attention to content but also context, genre and
social interaction elements (discourse analysis)
 Use of communicative strategies - Interactive
listening, compensation, body language….
 Write a typical or ‘model’ conversation based on the
‘data’ collected
 Revise, practice, and perform with reflective
assessments E-Learn 2015, Kona

Writing a paragraph
(samples)
Not only is the food different in Europe from Japanese food,
but so are the meal customs and table manners. There are some
important differences between what Europeans do at mealtime. Here
are some useful tips for what Japanese visitors to France and Italy should
and should not deal when eating. In France, arrive on time because this is a
sign of politeness. But in Italy, it is a good idea to arrive just a little late. In
both countries it is polite to bring a gift, for example a bottle of wine or some
sweets. Flowers are also a good gift, but don’t give people red roses
because they express love – the romantic kind.
Also, table manner are important in both countries. For
example, keep the fork in your left hand and the knife in your right.
Remember that it’s not polite to put your elbows on the table. People in
France do not like to see a person take a bit from a large piece of bread.
Instead, you should tear off a smaller piece of bread and bring that to your
mouth to bite. While Italian sometimes hang the napkin from the neck to
keep off sauce stains, the French people keep their napkins in their laps. So
you can see that is helps to know a bit about meal customs before you travel to
Europe.

Planning Your Presentation
 Planning Your Presentation--Questions You Need to Answer page 1
 When you learn that you are to give an oral presentation, the first step in preparing
for the presentation is to analyze each aspect of your speech and its performance
by answering the following questions, just as you did in planning your written
communication. Once you have done so, you are ready to design, structure, and
organize your presentation so that it will effectively satisfy the constraints that arise
from your consideration of each point.
 Situation
 What situation creates the need for this presentation? Who is involved? What
is the scenario for this situation? (Think about what you want your
classmates to know, understand or believe.)
 Where will I be speaking? What will the presentation look like / setup?
 Audience
 Who is my audience?
 What do I know about my audience's background, knowledge, position in the
organization, attitudes toward me and my subject?
 Purpose
 What is my purpose in giving this oral presentation?
 Is there (should there be) a long-range purpose?
 What is the situation that led to this presentation?
 Given my audience's background and attitudes, do I need to reshape my
purpose to make my presentation more acceptable to my audience?
Planning Your Presentation
 Planning Your Presentation--Questions You Need to Answer page 2
 Content - Organization of Ideas
 What issues, problems, questions or tasks are involved in the situation?
 What ideas do I want to include or omit?
 Based on the audience and the context, what difficulties do I need to anticipate
in choosing content?
 Is the structure (logical organization) clear and reasoned?
 Can any ideas be misunderstood and be harmful to the audience’s
enjoyment?
 What questions does the audience want answered?
 Graphics (THESE ARE NOT REQUIRED AND SHOULD BE ONLY ONE or 2)
 What kinds of visual aids will I need to enhance the ideas I will present?
 Which points could be understood better with a visual?
 Where should I use these in my presentation?
 Language and Style
 What kind of tone do I want to use in addressing my audience?
 Is the level of vocabulary and the length / difficulty of the sentences right ?
 What level of language do I need to use, based on my audience's background
and knowledge of my subject?
 What level of effort and motivation to communicate will my audience expect
from me?
 How formal / informal should I be? Will I ask for questions or respond to
comments?
Helping the Audience
Understand your Speech p.1
 Use Techniques to Enhance Audience Comprehension
 Because your audience cannot "re-hear" ideas, once you have stated them, look for ways to
help your audience easily follow your ideas: REPETION / EMPHASIS (voice / gesture)
 Make it clear in your INTRODUCTION – your purpose, Main idea (Topic Sentence) and
state briefly the KEY POINTS.
 Be sure you clearly mark (signal) the beginning and end of each point and segment of
your presentation.
 Announce each key point as you come to it. That way, your audience knows when you
have completed one topic and are beginning the next one.
 Allow a slight pause to occur after you have completed your introduction, then announce
your first topic. Use PAUSES to help mark each key idea and supporting point.
 After completing your final topic in the main body of your presentation, allow a slight
pause before you begin your conclusion.
 In the ENDING, restate the PURPOSE / MAIN IDEAS (SUMMARIZE Topic sentennce
and Key points)
Helping the Audience
Understand your Speech p.2
 Use Techniques to Enhance Audience Comprehension
 Speak slowly, vigorously, and enthusiastically. Be sure you enunciate your words
carefully, particularly if you are addressing a large group.
 Use gestures to accentuate points. Move your body deliberately to aid you in announcing
major transition points. In short, avoid standing transfixed before your audience.
 Maintain eye contact with your audience. Doing so helps you keep your listeners
involved in what you are saying. If you look at the ceiling, the floor, the corners of the
room, your audience may sense a lack of self-confidence. Lack of eye contact also tends to
lessen your credibility. In contrast, consistent eye contact enhances the importance of the
message. By looking at your audience, you can often sense their reaction to what you are
saying and make adjustments in your presentation if necessary.
 Do not just memorize your presentation, and do not read from notes. KNOW WHAT YOU
WANT TO SAY and PRACTICE SAYING IT WELL BEFOREHAND. Otherwise,
your speech will sound as if you are just reading it. If possible, write type the outline of
your presentation on one sheet of paper. If you do forget what you are going to say, a quick
glance at the OUTLINE will usually refresh your memory. NO OTHER PAPER WILL
BE ALLOWED.
Helping the Audience
Understand your Speech p.3
 Use Techniques to Enhance Audience Comprehension
Rehearse your presentation until you are comfortable. Try walking around, speaking each
segment and then speaking aloud the entire presentation. Rephrase ideas that are
difficult for you to say--these will likely be hard for your audience to follow. Be sure to
time your presentation so that it does not exceed the time limit. Keep your presentation
as short as possible. Therefore, avoid adding information to your presentation (and your
outline) as your rehearse.
If possible, record your speech before the presentation day. Listen to yourself -- what you
have said as objectively as possible. As you listen, consider the main issues of audience,
purpose, organization, context, content, and style.
Listen for tone, attitude, and clarity. Is the tone you project appropriate for your audience
and your purpose clear? Is each sentence easy to understand? Are you speaking too
rapidly? Are the major divisions in your presentation easy to hear? Are any sentences
difficult to understand?

Elearn 2015 Kona A case study for integration of technolgoy into required english at a Japanese University

  • 1. Integration of Technology into EFL Instruction: A Case Study for Required English Classes at a Japanese University E-Learn 2015: World Conference on E-Learning Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort October 19-22, 2015 Kona, Hawaii David L. Brooks, Associate Professor Kitasato University, Sagamihara, Japan
  • 2. Outline of the session  Intercultural Domain for EFL  Rationale of intercultural task-based approaches  Process for Implementing ICTB  Collaborative tools and strategies • Types of performance tasks • Examples of collaborative tasks  Questions and Reflections
  • 3. Teaching and Learning  Elegantly simple in concept ….. but….  Infinitely complex in the reality of it.
  • 4. Cultural Milieu for EFL Most language students undertake the study of a foreign language for “reasons which arise directly or indirectly out the perceived needs of the community to which they belong” (Tudor, 1996, p. 128) Consequently, students (and teachers) may not undertake the learning of English as a vehicle for real communication and cross- cultural understanding. Result an intercultural gap, There will likely be barriers to communication, and a schism in the classroom.
  • 5. Learning language  As fundamental itself as being human… …but…  It is a living, fluid, highly personalized process …. ultimately transformational and without end.
  • 6. Cultures collide in the classroom  …..or.. At least they bump into each other gently.
  • 7. Cultural assumptions: visible and hidden What are some of the cultural assumptions or values? Of the people in the photo Of the photographer? Of the institution or country?
  • 9. Intercultural Domain  Any classroom forms an essential habitat in the learner’s ecosystem.  It encompasses the domains of the learning environment: physical, social, instructional and psychological.  However, the EFL classroom adds an additional dimension – the intercultural domain – human interaction across cultures  This affords a new cultural learning environment that is affected by perceptions and by the realities of classroom structure, group processes, classroom climate and teacher-mediated activities.
  • 10. Fig.1 Content-centered strategy-based EFL curriculum the complicated interrelationship between a set of essential components identified
  • 11. There is no ideal solution  …. only an idealized perception of learning.  Just as the face in the center is a blend of the ideal attributes of the six around it, so too is the ‘best’ way to learn languages.
  • 12. Here is my face on that solution!  It results from forty years as an educator, and twenty years as a English teacher at a Japanese university.
  • 13. Intercultural Task-Based Approach  Most learning tasks involve speaking foremost (Several forms of oral discourse.)  The INTERCULTURE is English for International Communication as it intersects with Japanese school culture (as well as for Greek, Chinese, or Spanish learners of EFL / ESL)  Performing is EMPHASIZED as the main task goal (for my particular situation) Speaking and Listening skills have been ignored in Japan compulsory education and the University Entrance Examinations.
  • 14. Rationale for ICTB approach (Intercultural task-based)  A central challenge we face as TESOLs is the problem of getting students to actually produce language in a new cross-cultural (classroom) environment.  Overcoming barriers inherent in the monolingual classroom needs a restructured learning experience.
  • 15. Why ICTB approach?  By the middle the 21st century, ‘foreign’ language mastery will no longer truly be needed.  Just think about what foretells this inevitable conclusion….. • Global media presence • Global economic interdependence • Computing technology/ artificial intelligence • Digital and virtual communication tools • Shrinking planet • Interconnectivity • Mega-complexity So……..
  • 16. The Paradigm Shift  Instead of foreign language mastery, what we really need is….. Intercultural Communicative Competence
  • 17. Rationale for Metacognitive Inculturalization  Fact: Whether we recognize it or not, all teachers employ an explicit, mutually-actualized, teacher- mediated process for intuitively ‘inculturating’ students into the our own classroom culture.  Risk: Not being ready for changes  Aim: I am advocating that both the teacher and students realize this, plan for it, and collaborate.  How: It is not simply the natural absorption of a new culture, normally referred to as acculturation, but rather a contextual and meta-cognitive cross- cultural classroom training is advocated. (Brooks, 1999)
  • 18. What is Metacognitive Inculturalization? 1  Metacognitive inculturization is a theory- based, yet, practical classroom-focused instructional approach to cross-cultural training  assists language learners in consciously and unconsciously adapting their own culture for learning a language (EFL) and  in acquiring new cultural behaviors to enhance the communicative environment of the EFL language classroom.
  • 19. What is Metacognitive Inculturalization? 2  It can be used to nurture both the learners’ understanding of the process and spark their willingness to embark on a new journey of cross-cultural discovery and deeper language acquisition.
  • 20. What is Metacognitive Inculturalization? 3  To equip EFL learners with a specific repertoire of individual, pair, small group, and whole class behaviors for internalizing new patterns of learning, cognitive strategies, and, most importantly, for enhancing interaction between themselves, with the target culture, and with the teacher.
  • 21.
  • 22. How Metacognitive Inculturalization Works 1. Contextual reframing 2. Incorporating old and establishing new patterns of social interaction 3. Building trust and areas of comfort and challenge 4. Teaching both communicative instructional ‘content’ tasks and the communication, intercultural, and learning strategies 5. Reflective assessment of the learning both the communicative content and the meta- cognitive content
  • 23. The context is the learning environment.  Any classroom forms an essential habitat in the learner’s ecosystem, but it is still only one of many habitats. This habitat is no longer simply a classroom.
  • 24. 1. Contextual Reframing The primary method of reframing the traditional context for classroom learning is re-defining the nature of the classroom  through identifying new purposes for the classroom as a language-learning environment.  by introducing a curriculum content focused on significant and meaningful issues by an evaluation system based on accomplishing real-life objectives using a task-based performance approach
  • 25. Being a fully actualized learner in EFL classroom should be like a journey to another country - even another habitat. The Environment / Habitat
  • 26. Cross-Training Environments  Changing the definition of the classroom to a wider, global more diverse set of learning environments (functions)
  • 27. 2. Incorporating old and establishing new patterns of social interaction By using social structures and common ways of organizing behaviors from the students’ common classroom culture, build up a set of adaptive communicative learning behaviors.  Draw upon forms and styles of social communication they already possess  Shape these with the students’ awareness and cooperation  The key is forming and maintaining culturally-appropriate but evolving functional groups

The Art and Science of Our Profession * Building trust and balancing levels of comfort (support) with challenge (change) * Teaching both communicative instructional ‘content’ = language tasks ….. and the communication, intercultural, and learning strategies * Reflective assessment of learning --- both the communicative content and the meta-cognitive content

  • 33. Learners as ethnographers  Ethnography is the systematic observation and description of how a language community behaves.  Integration of linguistic and cultural learning can facilitate communication and interaction (Byram & Fleming, 1998) • Comparison of others and self to stimulate reflection on -- and critical analysis of -- one’s own culture and the target culture they are attempting to acculturate (English) • An increase in cross-cultural awareness • A shift in perspective involving psychological processes of socialisation This approach affects the design and choice of learner tasks since language learning is part of a richer, cultural exploration of the target community.

  • 34. Culture and Conversational English Ethnographic approach to studying and creating ‘model’ conversations.  Transactional (message / content exchange) vs Interactional (social function)  How do conversational patterns vary across cultures?  Interpreting subtexts (implied meanings) - jokes, irony, unstated criticism, indirect affirmation or denial  Even the most simple conversation can allow for such explorations.

  • 51. Writing a paragraph (samples) Not only is the food different in Europe from Japanese food, but so are the meal customs and table manners. There are some important differences between what Europeans do at mealtime. Here are some useful tips for what Japanese visitors to France and Italy should and should not deal when eating. In France, arrive on time because this is a sign of politeness. But in Italy, it is a good idea to arrive just a little late. In both countries it is polite to bring a gift, for example a bottle of wine or some sweets. Flowers are also a good gift, but don’t give people red roses because they express love – the romantic kind. Also, table manner are important in both countries. For example, keep the fork in your left hand and the knife in your right. Remember that it’s not polite to put your elbows on the table. People in France do not like to see a person take a bit from a large piece of bread. Instead, you should tear off a smaller piece of bread and bring that to your mouth to bite. While Italian sometimes hang the napkin from the neck to keep off sauce stains, the French people keep their napkins in their laps. So you can see that is helps to know a bit about meal customs before you travel to Europe. Topic Sentence Topic Sentence Concluding Sentence Connecting to Paragraph before

  • 62. Planning Your Presentation  Planning Your Presentation--Questions You Need to Answer page 1  When you learn that you are to give an oral presentation, the first step in preparing for the presentation is to analyze each aspect of your speech and its performance by answering the following questions, just as you did in planning your written communication. Once you have done so, you are ready to design, structure, and organize your presentation so that it will effectively satisfy the constraints that arise from your consideration of each point.  Situation  What situation creates the need for this presentation? Who is involved? What is the scenario for this situation? (Think about what you want your classmates to know, understand or believe.)  Where will I be speaking? What will the presentation look like / setup?  Audience  Who is my audience?  What do I know about my audience's background, knowledge, position in the organization, attitudes toward me and my subject?  Purpose  What is my purpose in giving this oral presentation?  Is there (should there be) a long-range purpose?  What is the situation that led to this presentation?  Given my audience's background and attitudes, do I need to reshape my purpose to make my presentation more acceptable to my audience?
  • 63. Planning Your Presentation  Planning Your Presentation--Questions You Need to Answer page 2  Content - Organization of Ideas  What issues, problems, questions or tasks are involved in the situation?  What ideas do I want to include or omit?  Based on the audience and the context, what difficulties do I need to anticipate in choosing content?  Is the structure (logical organization) clear and reasoned?  Can any ideas be misunderstood and be harmful to the audience’s enjoyment?  What questions does the audience want answered?  Graphics (THESE ARE NOT REQUIRED AND SHOULD BE ONLY ONE or 2)  What kinds of visual aids will I need to enhance the ideas I will present?  Which points could be understood better with a visual?  Where should I use these in my presentation?  Language and Style  What kind of tone do I want to use in addressing my audience?  Is the level of vocabulary and the length / difficulty of the sentences right ?  What level of language do I need to use, based on my audience's background and knowledge of my subject?  What level of effort and motivation to communicate will my audience expect from me?  How formal / informal should I be?

  • 64. Helping the Audience Understand your Speech p.1  Use Techniques to Enhance Audience Comprehension  Because your audience cannot "re-hear" ideas, once you have stated them, look for ways to help your audience easily follow your ideas: REPETION / EMPHASIS (voice / gesture)  Make it clear in your INTRODUCTION – your purpose, Main idea (Topic Sentence) and state briefly the KEY POINTS.  Be sure you clearly mark (signal) the beginning and end of each point and segment of your presentation.  Announce each key point as you come to it. That way, your audience knows when you have completed one topic and are beginning the next one.  Allow a slight pause to occur after you have completed your introduction, then announce your first topic. Use PAUSES to help mark each key idea and supporting point.  After completing your final topic in the main body of your presentation, allow a slight pause before you begin your conclusion.  In the ENDING, restate the PURPOSE / MAIN IDEAS (SUMMARIZE Topic sentennce and Key points)
  • 65. Helping the Audience Understand your Speech p.2  Use Techniques to Enhance Audience Comprehension  Speak slowly, vigorously, and enthusiastically. Be sure you enunciate your words carefully, particularly if you are addressing a large group.  Use gestures to accentuate points. Move your body deliberately to aid you in announcing major transition points. In short, avoid standing transfixed before your audience.  Maintain eye contact with your audience. Doing so helps you keep your listeners involved in what you are saying. If you look at the ceiling, the floor, the corners of the room, your audience may sense a lack of self-confidence. Lack of eye contact also tends to lessen your credibility. In contrast, consistent eye contact enhances the importance of the message. By looking at your audience, you can often sense their reaction to what you are saying and make adjustments in your presentation if necessary.  Do not just memorize your presentation, and do not read from notes. KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY and PRACTICE SAYING IT WELL BEFOREHAND. Otherwise, your speech will sound as if you are just reading it. If possible, write type the outline of your presentation on one sheet of paper. If you do forget what you are going to say, a quick glance at the OUTLINE will usually refresh your memory. NO OTHER PAPER WILL BE ALLOWED.
  • 66. Helping the Audience Understand your Speech p.3  Use Techniques to Enhance Audience Comprehension Rehearse your presentation until you are comfortable. Try walking around, speaking each segment and then speaking aloud the entire presentation. Rephrase ideas that are difficult for you to say--these will likely be hard for your audience to follow. Be sure to time your presentation so that it does not exceed the time limit. Keep your presentation as short as possible. Therefore, avoid adding information to your presentation (and your outline) as your rehearse. If possible, record your speech before the presentation day. Listen to yourself -- what you have said as objectively as possible. As you listen, consider the main issues of audience, purpose, organization, context, content, and style. Listen for tone, attitude, and clarity. Is the tone you project appropriate for your audience and your purpose clear? Is each sentence easy to understand? Are you speaking too rapidly? Are the major divisions in your presentation easy to hear? Are any sentences difficult to understand?
