CURRICULUM GUIDE Speech – Fundamentals of Communication Language Arts Objectives Fundamentals of Communication is based on the philosophy of teaching students the various and complex actions involved in sending, receiving and interpretation of verbal and nonverbal messages. Communication Process Time Materials Validation IDAPA 08.02.03 Students will understand the complex nature of communication process and the concept that meanings are personal TLW understand the function of the basic elements in the communication process. • Identify the basic elements in the communication process: sender, receiver, message, channel, feedback, encoding, decoding, and interference • Identify techniques for eliminating interference thus increasing the accuracy of communication • Explain the function of each element of the communication process • Recognize the effectiveness of precise encoding • • Generate (individually or in small groups) a definition of communication process Create an original diagram of a communication model TLW comprehend the role of meaning in communication • Distinguish between denotations and connotations • Explain why the meaning intended by the sender may not be exactly the same as the meaning interpreted by the receiver • Observe/find/read a communication episode in which misunderstanding occurs and analyze the reasons for the misunderstanding 1 CURRICULUM GUIDE Speech – Fundamentals of Communication Language Arts Objectives TLW understand how individual perceptions affect communication • Define perception • Time Materials Validation Define frame of reference • Identify the factors that influence perception, including ideological, cultural, psychological, environmental and sociological • Explain how perception affects communication • Compare and contrast individual perceptions Non-Verbal Communication TLW understand the significance of non-verbal factors in communications. • List and define the elements of nonverbal communication including proxemics (space and distance), kinesics (body language and gestures), facial expressions, eye contact), appearance, paralanguage (use of voice, tone, pitch, rate), hap tics (touch), chronemics (time). • Discuss the influence of nonverbal factors in the communication process • Explain the culture specific customs and conventions that govern the use of nonverbal communication • Conduct an experiment to test the influence of the nonverbal code Listening TLW develop an understanding of the complexity of the listening process • Differentiate between hearing and listening and the time spent engaged in each • Differentiate between active and passive listening behavior • Explain feedback and its function ISPS: 754 2 CURRICULUM GUIDE Speech – Fundamentals of Communication Language Arts Objectives TLW develop skills necessary for effective listening. • Define the types of listening: critical, informative, empathic. • • Time Materials Validation Differentiate among situations where critical listening, informative listening, empathic listening, appreciative listening are important. Recognize barriers to their own effective listening • Practice techniques to overcome barriers to effective listening TLW identify and comprehend messages. • Distinguish between main ideas and supporting details • Identify memory techniques to recall basic ideas and detail • Demonstrate a variety of note-taking strategies (outlining, key words, mapping) ISPS: 754.01 a-c • Practice comprehensive listening using memory techniques and note-taking strategies TLW develop and appreciate techniques of critical listening. • Explain the value of critical listening • • ISPS: 754.01 a-c Differentiate among logical appeals, emotional appeals and appeals based on source credulity Recognize common fallacies in reasoning • Evaluate a persuasive message Speech Preparation and Delivery ISPS: 755.01 a TLW select topics and speeches appropriate to their audiences and purposes. • Identify types of speeches and appropriate occasions • Explain how audience analysis is conducted and how it affects topic choice • Choose topics appropriate to audience situations and environment: physical setting and time limits 3 CURRICULUM GUIDE Speech – Fundamentals of Communication Language Arts Objectives TLW use a variety of research sources, organizational patterns and rhetorical devices in speech preparation. • List sources of information traditionally used in speech construction (library, surveys, interviews, media, personal experience) • Recognize the major organizational patterns in speech writing (chronological, topical, problem-solution, special) • Identify a variety of techniques for introducing and concluding a speech • Use a variety of techniques for introducing and concluding a speech • Use a variety of research sources, organizational patterns and rhetorical devices in formulating a speech (computers, card catalogs) • Use and create a variety of visual aids (charts, maps, graphs, objects, computer technology, transparencies, slides, and videos) to support and clarify speech content Time Materials Validation ISPS: 755.01 b 756.01 a, b 756.02 a 756.03 a, b ISPS: 755.01 b ISPS: 755.03 a ISPS: 756.04 a TLW learn and use skills necessary to deliver messages effectively. • List and define the elements of delivery (see nonverbal code, human relations/group dynamics) • Practice nonverbal communication in speech delivery, especially voice, diction, posture, gestures, eye contact, facial expression and appearance • Present a variety of speeches in the classroom setting • Demonstrate their ability to effectively use a variety of visual aids (charts, maps, graphs, objects, transparencies, slides, and videos) within the content of the speech TLW critically analyze public speeches. • • 754.02 a, b 755.01 c 755.0 a ISPS: 754.03 a Use a checklist of effective speaking skills to evaluate peer speeches After recording their speeches formulate a self-evaluation to appraise content, organization and delivery 4 CURRICULUM GUIDE Speech – Fundamentals of Communication Language Arts Objectives Human Relations/Group Dynamics TLW discover the importance of group discussion and develop those communication skills that facilitate working in groups. • List the traits of a group (size, purpose, composition) and the types of groups (panel, forum, symposium, social, response, enlightenment) • Identify effective and ineffective roles individuals play in groups • Identify group leadership styles. • Materials Validation ISPS: 755.03 b Identify a process for arriving at a group decision and techniques of decision making (majority rule, consensus, compromise) • • Time Use group discussion skills to solve a common problem, arrive at a decision, or answer questions of mutual interest ISPS: 755.03 b Identify types of public discussion 5
