The Department of Speech Communications will need to further evaluate the results of its experimental teaching methods. Instructors of Introduction to Speech Communication (SPC1310 G) have been testing different teaching methods throughout the past two semesters in order to determine what is most effective. Half of the courses are taught in a lecture-discussion for­ mat, which includes one day of lecture and two days of group discussion per week. The other half is taught in the standard classroom setting. The department's evaluation is based upon videotaped pre­ sentations and student surveys from the fall semester. Mark Borzi, chair of the speech communication depart­ ment, said while there has been no statistical difference between the two sections, "evaluation of the videotaped speeches provided some indications that students in the lec­ ture-dJscussion format may demonstrate stronger organiza­ STEPHEN HAAS/ ASSOC IATE PHOTO EDITOR tional structure, use of evidence and vocal delivery quality. • Gary Reed, Utilities Manager for Facilities Planning and Management, talks about lighting Thursday night in theW lot However, the conclusion will require further analysis of parking area with Gary Hanebrink, Campus Safety Officer of the Department of Environmental Health and Safety, during student presentations, he said. the light walk put on by the Student Senate.
