When You Are the General Evaluator ( Lawrence Lin Spark) |
|
|
To be a good general evaluator is similar to be a good evaluator. The difference is only that the general evaluator's comment covers all areas of the meeting--to be positive yet point out the weakness for the club to improve. |
|
| 1. | Before the meeting |
| ¡@ |
Contact your evaluator team
(individual evaluators and the language evaluator). Make sure they know
they will show up at the meeting and know how to do their job. If they
don't know, help them. Also prepare what to say to introduce them. As a general evaluator, arrive at the meeting place earlier. Understand even what's going on before the meeting. |
| 2. | Upon arrival of the meeting |
| ¡@ | Sit near the back of the room to allow yourself full view of the meeting and its participants. |
| 3. | During the meeting |
| ¡@ | Take notes on everything that happens or doesn't but should. For example, does the meeting start on time? Is the club banner hung up? Is there any distraction that should be avoided? Cover each participant on the program. Look for strength and weakness of session masters and speakers. But manual speakers have their own individual evaluators, so it's not necessary to reevaluate the speaker. Of course you can add something that the individual evaluator may have missed. Surely you can evaluate how individual evaluator did their job. |
| 4. | When you give evaluation |
| ¡@ |
Take control of the meeting
from toastmaster of the meeting. You can say a few words about the
importance of general evaluation or how you are going to do it! |
