Revising Public Speaking Theory, Content, And Pedagogy: A Review Of The Issues In The Discipline In The 1990'S, Nancy Rost Goulden
Basic Communication Course Annual
Literature from the 1990's calling for revision of basic course public speaking theory and pedagogy is examined, summarized, and organized. Discussion of sources that shape and maintain public speaking theory provides background for the reports of journal articles and conference papers categorized under (1) overall perspectives that influence theory, (2) basic theory of what characteristics constitute effective speaking, (3) appropriate course content, and (4) appropriate pedagogy.
The dominant theme for change calls for a new theoretical perspective of effective speaking rejecting emphasis on traditional speech behaviors and supported by changes in attitudes and pedagogy, characterized by flexibility, openness, reliance on …
Common Sense In The Basic Public Speaking Course, Calvin L. Troup
Common Sense In The Basic Public Speaking Course, Calvin L. Troup
Basic Communication Course Annual
The foundation of the basic public speaking course ought to be questioned and modified to better meet the needs of students today. More specifically, public speaking courses must offer more than technique. Students must be introduced to the historical context that both models effective public discourse and has also contributed to the framework of the American public forum. This article offers some common sense ideas about what the public forum ought to be. Implementation of these ideas, among other things, will serve to enrich the substance of the course, introduce the central role of rhetoric in American history, culture, and …

Communication Apprehension And Basic Course Success: The Lab-Supported Public Speaking Course Intervention, Karen Kangas Dwyer, Robert E. Carlson, Sally A. Kahre
Basic Communication Course Annual
This study examined a lab-supported public speaking course as an intervention for helping reduce overall and context communication apprehension (CA) for high and moderate CA students. In addition, this study queried whether actual lab usage was related to CA reduction and to course grade for those students. Results showed that the lab-supported public speaking course helped high and moderate CAs significantly reduce overall CA and CA in public speaking, group discussions, meetings and interpersonal conversation contexts.
There was no difference in reduction of CA level between high and moderate CAs who utilized the speech lab and those who did not. …

An Examination Of The Speech Evaluation Process: Does The Evaluation Instrument And/Or Evaluator's Experience Matter?, Karen Anderson, Karla Kay Jensen
Basic Communication Course Annual
Speech evaluation forms are a useful and necessary tool of any communication course with a public speaking component. The continued investigation of how such forms are created and used is beneficial to students and teachers. In this study, raters from various experience levels graded two speeches using a combination of four evaluation forms, half of which included directions. Raters then responded to questions regarding the forms they just used.
Results indicate that experience level and form type influence the speech grade given. Additionally, raters' responses regarding the forms reveal how they view the use of forms in the speech evaluation …

D/Deafness And The Basic Course: A Case Study Of Universal Instructional Design And Students Who Are D/Deaf In The (Aural) Communication Classroom, Julia R. Johnson, Susan M. Pliner, Tom Burkhart
Basic Communication Course Annual
The primary purpose of this essay is to suggest ways to create a universally inclusive curriculum, which, by definition, addresses the learning needs of all students, including students with disabilities or, in this case, students who are deaf or hard-of-hearing. Presented with the opportunity of having a d/Deaf students in a public speaking class, we reflect on the accommodations made, the assumptions inherent in an inclusive classroom, and the ideology of ableism. Because d/Deafness is as much a cultural identity as an auditory condition, we also address how to create safe learning environments for diverse student populations through the use …

It is this “death of distance” that will be the single most important economic force shaping all of society over the next half century. The economic prosperity of the United States has contributed to the increase in this “luxury” telecommunication device, but how can the rapid increase in European countries with lower per capita incomes such as Spain be explained? The purpose of this paper is to examine mobile phone usage and penetration rates in the United States compared to …
