Year: 2021
Type: article
Abstract: In this 21st century, there has been a growing demand for graduates to level up their communicative competencies, particularly in speaking and presentation. In Japan, EFL students are exposed to rigorous English studies in college; therefore, there is a greater need to learn the skill. This paper aims to introduce a "structured presentation practice model" and outline its benefits for presentation practice. It also aims to describe the benefits of this structured presentation practice and explain how learners can benefit from this practice. This article will also describe the pedagogical rationale behind the method and how it could benefit Japanese students for effectively practicing their fluency for presentation. The author implemented this pedagogical style of practicing the presentation for a year and found that, in general, students responded well and enjoyed it.
