Praxis II PLT 7-12

Category - Students

Mr. Marx has assigned an oral presentation for the students in his class. For many of them, this will be their first time making an oral presentation. Public speaking can be a fearful experience, and the assignment of one may cause considerable stress for some students. Which of the following might be an effective technique to enable students to perform an oral report?
I) Allowing students to present in pairs
II) Offering students rewards for completing the task
III) Allowing the student to either sit or stand while delivering the presentation
  1. I and II
  2. I and III
  3. II and III
  4. I, II and III
Explanation
Answer: D - I, II and III. Motivating students to do something they have never done before may take going the extra mile, but it’s worth it. Any sort of positive motivation or reinforcement that validates the stress of what the child will do without denying the child a chance to complete the task (and without outright bribery or blackmail) is worth a shot. It may be difficult to manage and may call for extra sensitivity.
