Utilizing Self-Evaluation to Improve Presentation Skills

This paper will discuss the findings from an exploratory study on the benefits of incorporating learner self-evaluation of oral presentation skills. To assess the efficacy of self-evaluation, two research questions were asked. Firstly, were learners able to accurately evaluate their own presentation performance? Secondly, did learners find the self-evaluation process beneficial? Data was collected from a sample of 122 first/second-year students across three Japanese universities. Students were asked to complete a self-evaluation rubric following their midterm presentation. Additionally, learners completed a reflection questionnaire on their perspectives of the self-evaluation process. Results showed that learners were able to accurately assess their performance on most of the presentation competencies, and that they found the process beneficial. In future, it is recommended that learners receive further training on how to use feedback and self-evaluation scores to improve their overall performance. 本稿は、口頭発表スキルに学習者の自己評価を取り入れることの利点に関する予備的研究から得られた知見について述べる。自己評価の有効性を検証するために、学習者は自分のプレゼンテーション・パフォーマンスを正確に評価できたか、また自己評価プロセスに有益性を感じたか、という二つの研究課題を設定した。データは、日本の3大学の1年生・2年生122名から収集し、対象の学生は、中間発表後に自己評価ルーブリックに記入するよう求められた。さらに、学生は自己評価プロセスに対する考え方について、振り返りアンケートに回答した。その結果、学生はほとんどのプレゼンテーション能力について自分のパフォーマンスを正確に評価でき、そのプロセスが有益であると感じていた。今後、学習者は、総合的なパフォーマンスを向上させるために、フィードバックや自己評価のスコアをどのように活用するかについて、さらなるトレーニングの実施が推奨される。

Abstract

This paper will discuss the findings from an exploratory study on the benefits of incorporating learner self-evaluation of oral presentation skills. To assess the efficacy of self-evaluation, two research questions were asked. Firstly, were learners able to accurately evaluate their own presentation performance? Secondly, did learners find the self-evaluation process beneficial? Data was collected from a sample of 122 first/second-year students across three Japanese universities. Students were asked to complete a self-evaluation rubric following their midterm presentation. Additionally, learners completed a reflection questionnaire on their perspectives of the self-evaluation process. Results showed that learners were able to accurately assess their performance on most of the presentation competencies, and that they found the process beneficial. In future, it is recommended that learners receive further training on how to use feedback and self-evaluation scores to improve their overall performance. 本稿は、口頭発表スキルに学習者の自己評価を取り入れることの利点に関する予備的研究から得られた知見について述べる。自己評価の有効性を検証するために、学習者は自分のプレゼンテーション・パフォーマンスを正確に評価できたか、また自己評価プロセスに有益性を感じたか、という二つの研究課題を設定した。データは、日本の3大学の1年生・2年生122名から収集し、対象の学生は、中間発表後に自己評価ルーブリックに記入するよう求められた。さらに、学生は自己評価プロセスに対する考え方について、振り返りアンケートに回答した。その結果、学生はほとんどのプレゼンテーション能力について自分のパフォーマンスを正確に評価でき、そのプロセスが有益であると感じていた。今後、学習者は、総合的なパフォーマンスを向上させるために、フィードバックや自己評価のスコアをどのように活用するかについて、さらなるトレーニングの実施が推奨される。
