Reporting Rubrics
Reporting Rubrics
I am sending you now the rubrics for our reporting. The following guidelines will help you
prepare, present, and deliver an effective and engaging report that captures the audience
and convey your message clearly. Please take time to read and understand each of the item
below.
Guidelines:
1. Prepare. Understand your topic and research about it thoroughly to ensure all information
is accurate and relevant.
2. Rehearse your delivery, timing, and responses to potential questions.
3. Prepare your visual aids.
4. Visual Presentations. Make sure your visual aid is written with clarity. Avoid cluttered
visuals. No need for fancy designs.
5. Time Management: Every reporter will be given a maximum 20 minutes to wrap up her/his
topic. Stick to the allotted time, while ensuring to cover all the necessary points.
6. Your delivery will be graded and will be considered as part of your participation.
7. Your visual aids will be graded and will be considered as one of your projects.
2. Hot Seat Power. Each group will be given one “hot seat power” for every topic reported.
With this power, the audience may ask rapid-fire questions related to the report. They may
also choose any member from the group of reporters whom they liked to sit in the “hot seat”.
The chosen reporter should answer the questions as best as he/she can. For every hot seat
power used, the group shall gain an additional 10 points to be recorded as part of their class
participation.
3. Audience Quizmaster: The audience quiz master will be chosen by the instructor randomly
every time the class will be having the reporting. The quiz master is assigned to quiz the
reporting group with prepared 2 questions. Questions should be not be answerable by yes or
no, rather an application of the topic to real life context.
4. Show and Tell Element. A bonus point will be given to reporters who can bring physical
objects, samples or props related to their topic to make the report more engaging.
5. Silent Slide: Another bonus point shall be given to reporters who can include a silent slide
(a powerful image or chart) that the audience interprets keeping them involved in guessing
its meaning.
