The document outlines the requirements for four reflection essays to be written by students over the course of a public speaking semester. Each essay must be at least 500 words and critique a different type of speech delivered by the student: informative, persuasive, poetry performance, and tribute. The reflection essays will discuss what the student learned from preparing and delivering the speech, their strengths and challenges, and how they have developed their public speaking skills over the semester. Guidelines are provided on speech delivery methods and components for students to consider in their reflections. An example reflection essay is also included that analyzes a student's informative speech and areas for improvement.

Unit 4—Commemorative (FA2015) Page 1
Unit Five: Commemorative Speaking
Total points for this unit: 125 Readings: 18 and review 12
Commemorative speaking, also known as special occasion speaking, gives speakers experience in one of our most
commonly used speech. A manuscript is used instead of an outline because the intention is not to be “informative” or
“factual”, but to use stylistic delivery skills that affect the audience more thoughtfully and emotionally. Manuscripts are
used for speakers who give speeches at weddings, funerals, graduations, anniversaries, and breaking-ground ceremonies,
to name a few.
Time: 4-5 minutes
Prepare and present a 4-5 minute speech that pays tribute to a person, concept, organization or institution.
Harsher penalties will be applied, up to a full letter grade, for going over/under time.

manuscript for grading will be a 20 point deduction.
PREPARE FOR SPEECH DAY IN TWO STEPS:
STEP ONE (D2L): Before you come to class… You will attach a copy of your completed, typed outline,

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Here is an example of a reflection essay
In your observation, what were your strengths and challenges that you
encountered when you wrote and delivered your Informative speech?
Please explain based on the methods sheet.
It has been roughly ten years now since I have been out of high school and a lot has changed for me.
Back then I was super quiet, didn’t participate actively in any group projects, and always sat in the
back of a class. The point I am trying to make is that I hated public speaking with a fiery passion. Of
course, once I got out of high school and decided continuing my education wasn’t a priority, I was
forced to work odd jobs in the food and beverage world where a paycheck depended entirely on how
well of a public speaker one could be in order to earn gratuity on top of minimum wage. With time I
actually got pretty good, especially as my time as a bartender. With that being said, push came to
shove and the better I got to talking to people, the more I learned about how important education was
and public speaking. When I learned that I had to take a public speaking class at Horry Georgetown
Technical College, only one phrase came to mind. Bring it on! The first speech, the informative
speech, was basically two pages of persuading the audience why my hobbies were awesome.
Fly fishing, backpacking, and shed collecting are hobbies that I am extremely passionate about, and
had no trouble what so ever putting them into words that my audience could understand and relate to.
At first, I was actually slightly nervous about standing in front of my classmates and presenting the
written material about my hobbies. I knew I had plenty of attention getters, a few dry jokes to prevent
anyone from falling asleep, and background pictures to keep my audience in awe. For some reason, I
suppose I just felt slightly out of place because of the age gap between me and my fellow classmates.
However, as I went through my speech and heard a few laughs and several people complimenting my
pictures in the background, I began to loosen up a little. The biggest problem I had was trying to make
5. 5
eye contact with my audience and then immediately afterwards losing my place in my speech and
trying to pick up where I left off. According to my graded rubric, eye contact was something I needed
to work on a little more. Also, apparently I was paying more attention to my objects on display when it
came time to answering questions about the hobbies to the class. I don’t consciously remember doing
that, but I suppose now I’ll be better prepared about what I should and shouldn’t do when it comes
time for the next informative speech I may give in the future.
If I had to go back and perform my informative speech again, I think I probably would have to practice
a little more beforehand. The assignment called for reading the speech out loud in front of a mirror or
friends and family at least 25 times altogether. I think I read it out loud probably half that amount. This
wasn’t the first time I have presented an informative speech in front of a group of people though. I
gave one a little over a year ago in front of the South Carolina Wildlife Society in Columbia, South
Carolina in front of 200 natural resource professionals but for some reason I was more excited than
nervous. Another time was last May when I had to give a speech in front of the HGTC faculty and the
president of the college about my successful college experience. This time, however, was the first time
I was being graded and perhaps that was why I was a little nervous at first.
