Abstract

Oral presentation skill is a key characteristic of modern engineers and that is why it is an essential component in engineering education. According to the social cognitive perspective, feedback and assessment play an important role in teaching and learning. This study describes the implementation and evaluation of oral presentation for a class of 56 students (both male and female) of First-year Civil Engineering. An innovative instruction format that builds on the integrated use of a Student Response System (SRS) for peer assessment of oral presentations of First-year Engineering students has been implemented. Oral presentations for about 56 students were conducted and assessed where in the participants played both the role of assessor and assesse. Further, this paper also throws light on the certain investigative methods of using clickers in the classroom to enhance students' participation. Results mirror a very positive student attitude towards SRS. The SRS was reported as an effective way of producing feedback for presenters, assessors and educators.
