Speaking/Listening/Pronunciation Workshops

EAP speech workshops are designed to help EAP students improve their speech and pronunciation skills. These live, synchronous workshops are conducted by EAP Lab staff (not by your professor) and will be held via Zoom in the Canvas shell Valencia College EAP Learning Support. Especially pertinent to courses with speaking/listening component, conversation/pronunciation workshops (what we use for speaking/listening labs for 0400, 1500, and, in part, 1586, but are open to all students) have also moved online, and the schedule is up and available.

Workshop attendance is being housed there in spreadsheet format if you are currently requiring/recommending those workshops; students in the courses with speaking/listening component should be attending those workshops as part of their labs and you can cross-check attendance in that location.

Here are recommended instructions for your students:

1) Click this link to view the schedule of Speech: Speech Workshops Calendar

2) Click Zoom Meeting Link: https://valenciacollege.zoom.us/j/91656276363 on any/all days that you wish to join the scheduled workshops.

Please note: these speech workshops are available on a first come, first serve basis and are limited to 12 participants. You do NOT need to make a reservation; you simply need to show up on time (or, preferably, a little early) in order to secure your spot for the day. Please plan your schedule/timing carefully so that you are able to attend all of the workshops that work best with your available times.

3) Complete 10 Zoom workshop sessions. For each session, make sure that you note the date/time that you completed the session and the session topic. Use this chart to fill out your information. YOU MUST COMPLETE THE CHART AND SUBMIT IT PROPERLY TO GET YOUR FULL GRADE.

4) Once you have completed ALL 10 workshops and have filled out the chart, submit the chart in this Canvas assignment before or by the due date. The speech workshop facilitators will be sending me attendance records of all Zoom sessions, so I will cross-check and confirm all attendance once I have received your completed chart. Please make sure all information is accurate, or you will NOT receive credit for your attended sessions.

5) You may complete these labs as quickly or as slowly as you like. If you prefer to finish them all in several weeks, you are more than welcome to do that. If you prefer to complete them over the course of the term, you are more than welcome to do that as well. (Adjust due dates accordingly for your own individual classes)
