Mid-Course Skills
For this assignment, you will begin by completing a preparation worksheet assessing your public speaking skills at this point in the course. Please click the following link to complete the preparation worksheet. After completing the preparation worksheet, you will create a two- to three-minute video blog in YouSeeU assessing the progress of your oral communication skills. This video blog will only be available for the instructor to view.
In your video blog, you will address the following questions:
• What improvements have you made in your oral communication skills?
• What areas do you still need to improve upon?
• What is the current status of the goals you set for yourself in Week One?
Please include specific details involving your experiences thus far in the course. The best assessments will reference course material and guidance from which you will base your observations and insights. When recording your video, please utilize both the verbal component of speaking and presenting, as reviewed in the course text on pages 257-266 of Chapter 12 and the non-verbal component of speaking and presenting, as reviewed in the course text on pages 266-270 of Chapter 12.
Please submit your preparation worksheet as an attachment to your video blog in YouSeeU. Both the completed preparation worksheet and the video blog will be evaluated as part of the grade for this assignment.
