Grading Rubric Name & Section : Watts, MB
Response Team Reflection on Patrick Watts Patrick Watts’ presentation was about a high school coach that got fired over a punishment that was given to one of his players. To discuss his clarity, Hall and Hackett both agreed that he did a nice job. Hackett thought he he had a ”good tone” and “knew what he was talking about” (Hackett). Hall thought that he “explained what the anti-bullying act, corporal punishment [were]” very well and made everyone in the know that was listening. However, Gove thought that Watts had a “lot’s of filler words” and thought it was important for him to how to pronounce “Expletive”. The visual element of Watts’ presentation was “excellent” in Hackett’s eyes. As Hall said it Watts’ “Gave main points and spoke more in depth...” and Hackett agrees with that (Hall & Hackett). Gove thought it was a good presentation but he did say that Watts’ could have made more eye contact with the audience. The sonic element of his presentation was across the board; Hackett, Hall and Gove all agree that he spoke with clarity and confidence. A few minor details would be that “his hands in his pockets made it seem more that he was a passive speaker, instead of a interactive one” (Gove). Watts’ “was very descriptive in the details of what happened. And the chronological order he presented the information was a good strength.” (Hall). Hackett thought that it would have been an even better presentation if the video worked, but that was beyond his control in the amounted time. A thoughtful job, covering all the necessary issues, & in fact bringing up one point I hadn’t noticed. Plusses all around.
