Teaching Writing — Teaching Oral Presentation.

This study describes the benefit of teaching writing in a combination with teaching oral presentation. For two successive years, two different classes were taught writing and presentation individually and in groups. The classes worked with three interdisciplinary projects in addition to their schedule and integrated IT in written as well as oral work. To measure and to improve the results the criteria of the four dimensions of a text were used and an extra dimension was added with special reference to oral presentation. The examination forms were oral group presentation and the writing of an individual essay with a preceding group work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
