Chapter 331: Successful First Attempt
"Teacher Chen, Teacher Chen, are you free at night?" Several students in Teacher Wang's class ran over to surround Chen Xin, wanting to ask her for a favor and be a judge for their class's class speech competition.
"Isn't there an English speech contest, many students in our class have signed up, but I'm afraid it's unlikely that they will all go, so I want to select in the class, the three winning students will participate, and the other students will do their best to help with the logistics. ”
It may be that the overall atmosphere of the school this year is good, in the past, this kind of activity was loved by the students themselves, and the teachers did not pay special attention to it, but this year all the students participated very much, and many clubs were organized to help each other. Even the school radio studio began to compete for posts.
Chen Xin was willing to help and immediately agreed to the students' request, but she also asked for a full English conversation. This is not a problem for students, but most formal English speech competitions will be set up in this way, and the daily communication of oral language is also a scoring factor.
"Eh, tell Xiao Wang, don't just get them in one class, or they will be in four classes together. ”
There are two classes in the freshman and sophomore years, and the juniors are much more experienced, and the same stage will cause great pressure, and the juniors have more extracurricular practice and do not have so much time to organize this kind of activity. Needless to say, at a school like theirs, at the end of the first semester of their senior year, almost except for those who plan to continue their graduate studies, all other students have found internship units, and some of them have been working since the beginning of their senior year. The school used to have strict requirements in this regard, as long as you passed the exam and passed the thesis defense, there was basically no attendance requirement in the last semester.
Teacher Yan is also single, and when she heard that Chen Xin promised to be a judge for the students, she didn't want to go back, so she called Counselor Xiao Wang directly and asked him to ask the counselors of several other classes if they were willing to work together to make the scene bigger.
Chen Xin had more ideas, and asked the students to find classmates from the school news club to do the live broadcast. Of course, it was a short video and text broadcast, which was on the school forum, which was very similar to the online text broadcast she was familiar with. It's just that the students have no experience in this kind of operation and can't meet the requirements of live broadcasting, so they will write the manuscript first, and then hand it over to the editors of the news agency for text editing, and then send it to the special post of the small forum.
The age gap between young teachers and students is not large, especially counselors like Xiao Wang, who are estimated to be three or four years older than the students. They often play together, and they speak more directly.
After receiving a call from Mr. Yan, Mr. Xiao Wang discussed with several other counselors in the office and decided to do this activity together, no matter what the effect is, it should also be regarded as a student's in-school practice.
Because of the tight schedule, there were only three or four hours from the decision to start the game in the evening, and the counselors of each family notified the squad leader as soon as possible, and then went separately to implement the location and equipment needed for the game.
If it was just a class competition, it could be done in the class, but now it is four classes in two grades, and it is obvious that there is not enough space in the class, so they go to borrow the small hall.
There is no need for a very fancy arrangement, there are many students who can write and draw, and they unite to act, with a stroke of the pen and a gouache, and after two hours, the rostrum of the small hall is decently arranged.
The students of the school news club didn't even care about eating, one of them bought a loaf of bread and finished eating, setting up cameras, video cameras, light tracking, and an award-winning interview desk or something, and they acted very quickly and stylishly.
In addition to the students of the undergraduate major, students from other majors can also come to watch the competition, but the student judges only select the junior and senior students of the major to serve as the representative of the student judges. The number of people is not large, fifteen people, and the principle of voluntary registration and then screening by the teacher is adopted. Most of the judges are young teachers, after all, it is a temporary event held at night, and almost all the teachers with families have to go back, so the single dogs can stay at school until late at night and no one cares.
Of course, except for Chen Xin, who is pseudo-single.
The activities designed and presided over by the students spontaneously attracted a lot of interested students, and the small auditorium could seat four or five hundred people, and the students who usually stuffed a few classes went in and almost filled the hall, but tonight there were six or seven hundred people, plus the first and second rows were for the judges' seats, which must be spacious, so the fifth row where the camera was located was stuffed with heads.
"This student is good, the typhoon is very stable, and he is dressed appropriately, so he can see that he is seriously prepared. ”
In addition to the script and spit out the speech, the speech contest, the typhoon, the appearance, and the response must be involved, and the scoring is also a comprehensive score, although the speech and performance ability account for a large proportion, but under the same ability, the details have become the key to defeating the opponent.
Originally, there was no need to pay so much attention to the competition in the school, but after Chen Xin explained to them, all the players hoped to be strict with themselves.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, all the contestants were notified and they were given two hours to dress up, which was normally enough. Because it's not on TV, there's no need to wear heavy makeup, a little powder is enough for girls, and it's basic for male students to wash their hair, wash their faces and shave their beards. In terms of clothing, you only need to wear daily clothes, dignified and thoughtful.
Students who can take the initiative to sign up for English speeches do not have much problem in speaking, but there are still various deficiencies in expression and appeal. These need to be taught by the teacher, and they need to be integrated into the feelings they want to express in the speech. Facial expression management is also part of their own management, and for students like them, body language control should be stronger than that of students from other schools.
The first two sophomores, a boy and a woman, had already participated in a similar competition, setting an example for their younger siblings, so they took the initiative to guess boxing to determine the order of the first and second places, and then other inexperienced students drew lots to determine the order.
The host was two classmates from the major next door, who came by self-recommendation, and the timing was very good, and they came prepared, beating other competitors.
Tonight's administrative duty is the head of the department of the broadcasting and hosting major, who watched the competition as a special guest and will present awards to the top three students.
Although it is not a serious award, it is also a rare proof of students' learning and practice, and it is also a way for them to accumulate experience, and the school is also very supportive.
Except for the first two speakers, the third and fifth were more stage frightened, and there were cases of forgetting words in the middle, but the students who watched the game did not applaud, but waited quietly for them to recall the script. The next students were mentally prepared and seized the time to memorize the manuscript before they went on the field.
The more you get to the end, the better it gets. There are wonderful performances, and the students who watched the game below are also encouraging, and the warm applause is the best recognition for them.
