Developing standards for the teaching of public speaking in small high schools

This study shows that there is a high degree of agreement as to the objectives in teaching public speaking. The range of agreement on the six objectives used in this study is 91 percent to 64 percent.

There is, also a fair degree of agreement as to the procedure, which may be followed to obtain these objectives. The percent of agreement on the forty-seven procedures suggested in this study are as follows:
90 percent or above on procedures
75 percent to 90 percent on procedures
50 percent or above on all others

Therefore, if teachers desire to help individuals become better speakers, they may aid their students by focusing their attention upon these objectives, and by using the teaching procedures recommended. / M.S.
