Purpose
|
 |
To provide quick feedback
on how well each speaker was able to present their table topic. |
| |
|
You have to be concise and precise in
what you report. Too many Table Topic Evaluators are guilty of
exceeding the time imposed. |
|
|
|
|
|
Before the meeting begins
|
|
The Table Topic Master should have
given you a list of questions that will be asked. |
|
|
|
|
|
What to do during your assignment
|
|
As with all evaluations, your
presentation should be positive, upbeat, instructive and basically
congratulatory. |
| |
|
2-3 minutes is not long. It gives you
enough time for a few general comments, then 20-30 seconds per
speaker. |
| |
|
Do not comment on or embellish what the
speaker said. Rather, evaluate the degree of effectiveness achieved
in achieving a sound structure, and in procuring audience reaction,
especially to the acceptance of a point of view. |
| |
|
A common structure to recommend goes by
the acronym P.R.E.P. When the topic is given, the speaker should
make a Point, give a Reason for the point, provide an Example or
two, then reiterate the Point. |
| |
|
Discuss trends amongst the speakers and
limit your remarks on individuals to those to whom you can give
helpful advice. In order to keep in your time limit, don't discuss
the good answers at length. They can be mentioned in passing so that
you can devote your remarks to the areas and people where they can
do the most good |
| |
|
In essence try and give one good point
and one point for improvement about each speaker. |
| |
|
Hand back to the Table Topic Master. |
| |
|
That is the end of your assignment. You
will be evaluated by the General Evaluator |
