講評員(Evaluator)的職務敘述

An evaluator is a supporter, encourager and helper. Give positive, constructive evaluations that will motivate and genuinely help the receiver.
A. A few days before the meeting:
　 Call the speaker to learn his speech objectives. Be aware of the speaker's general goals and of specific areas in which he would like help and feedback. Answer him any questions he may have. Help him and encourage him. Remind him to bring the manual to the meeting and give it to you before the meeting begins.
B. During the meeting:
　 1. Listen attentively--not only with ears, but also with eyes. Take notes.
　 2. After the speaker has finished:
　 　 (1). Complete the evaluation guide, but remember that you need not comment on every question. You may use the manual guide as a base for your evaluation, but your evaluation need not be limited to those points.
　 　 (2). Drafting the content of the evaluation--focus on the most important points. You won't have time to cover everything.
　 　 　 (a). Mention the presentation's effect on you.
　 　 　 (b). Mention what the speaker did well--the speaker's effort and strength
　 　 　 (c). Mention where the speaker could improve, and specific recommendations for improvement.
　 　 　 (d). Conclude on a positive note that helps the speaker build self-esteem and self-confidence.
C. During the intermission:
　 Maybe you can ask opinions from the speaker himself and from other audience.
D. Presenting the evaluation
　 Giving the speaker your personal opinion in a friendly, direct, non-threatening manner.
　 1. Comment sincerely, friendly, directly and honestly.
　 2. Look at the speaker.
　 3. Give your personal opinion.
　 　 (1). Describe your own reactions to the speaker, not other people’s reaction.
For example, say, “I liked it when” or “I was confused about..” Avoid saying “The audience didn’t understand….”
　 　 (2). Suggest the speaker: “You could..”; do not say “You should…” or “You must”.
　 　 (3). Avoid judgment words and phrases, such as “good speakers always…”
E. After the meeting:
　 1. Give the manual with your written evaluation back to the speaker.
　 2. Talk with the speaker one to one.
　 　 (1). Add more comments to him.
　 　 (2). Learn from him his feedback to your evaluation.
PS: All the other audience can be volunteer evaluators, too, and write to or tell the speaker
　 1. something he did well
　 2. specific recommendation for improvement

講評員（evaluator）

  　每位指定演講者在發表演說之後都會接受評估。當你發表過４次演講後，你將會被邀請擔任講評員來評估某一位指定演講者。除了給予口頭評估外，也將依手冊的指引給演講者書面的評估。你的評估會使演講認為自己的演講是有價值或一文不值的。評估的目的在幫助演講者成為較不怯生的、漸入佳境的講者，這就需要你對受評估或身體語言而獲得聽眾的好評，讓演講者知道，這將鼓勵他再度運用。

會議前

1.仔細溫習新會員資料包中的“有效的演講評估手冊”（effective Speech Evaluation manual）.，與受評估者討論他該次演講是哪個單元、所應達成的目標以及演講者想達成的目標。正確地界定他想藉這次演講加強的技巧或技術。

2.若要講者受惠，評估就須仔細地準備。好好研究手冊中的單元目標及評估指引。記著，評估的目的在幫助人們發展在不同場合的演講技巧，如講合演說討論形式、會議形式。成就是能力與動機的總和。藉著積極傾聽與真誠給予有用意見，將激勵人們努力，更進步。當你指出進步之路，你也已開啟增強能力之門。

當你到達會場

1.找到受評估者並取得他的手冊。

2.與總講評員簡短會面以確定評估時段的進行方式，接著再與受評估者作最後一次會商，看他是否需要你在他演講時特別注意哪些部份。

會議中

1.在受評估者手冊中記錄下你對該演講的印象，並回答手冊中的既定問題。要儘可能保持客觀。記著，好的評估可以給沮喪的會友帶來新生命，不好的評估會挫傷已盡了最大努力的會友。你應謹記在心；每個人進步的方法不盡相同，給對方預留他用自己方式進步的空間。

2.當總講評員介紹由你來講評時，起身給予口頭評估。以鼓勵及讚賞開始並結束講評。雖然你已長長地書面回答了手冊中的評估問題，但是不必唸那些題目及你的回答。你的口頭評估時間是有限的，不要嘗試在口頭評估中含蓋太多面向；或許可以一點針對架構，一點針對傳達方式，一點針對目的達成與演講者所表現出來的最大優點，及對他未來更進一步給一個建議。好的演講要好好讚頌，並具體說明之所以成功的理由。別讓演講者無視於價值連城的資產，例如微笑、幽默、或一副好嗓子；也別讓演講者對嚴重缺失或怪癖渾然不覺。如果公開地說那一點缺失將很失面子，就寫紙條讓他知道。以你身為演講者希望別人對待你的方式，給演講者當之無愧的讚賞及圓熟的建議。

會議後

把手冊還給受評估者，加上一個口頭的鼓勵及一些在口頭中沒提及的東西
