你距離完成Pathways Lv1，只差5次會議

來自專欄 D88 Pathways早知道

大家好，自從Pathways系統在D88正式上線到今天，已經快要兩周了。相信很多會員已經開始了對Pathways的研究。並且也有很多會員來諮詢選擇Pathways的問題。這些問題我們會在後續給大家一個回復，並且給出測試結果。

這幾天的時間裡，我收到的最多的問題是，Lv1該怎麼做，做些什麼。好消息是，10條Path的Lv1內容上是一致的，對於新手來說，大家都是一起開始通關，到了Lv2開始才有分支關卡。從Base Camp入門到精通，需要一個過程。我們大家也都在嘗試，並且Base Camp本身也在自身的迭代升級過程中，我相信未來會有更好的體驗給大家。

言歸正傳，我們來看看Lv1都包含了哪些內容。

LEVEL 1: Mastering Fundamentals

• Ice Breaker
• Evaluation and Feedback
• Researching and Presenting

三個Project的具體內容如下：

Ice Breaker

This foundational project is designed to introduce you to your club and the skills you need to begin your Toastmasters journey.

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to introduce yourself to the club and learn the basic structure of a public speech.

Overview: Write and deliver a speech about any topic to introduce yourself to the club. Your speech may be humorous, informational, or any other style that appeals to you.

This project includes:

A 4- to 6-minute speech

Evaluation and Feedback

This project addresses the skills needed to give and receive feedback. You will learn about giving, receiving and applying feedback.

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to present a speech on any topic, receive feedback, and apply the feedback to a second speech.

Overview: Choose any topic for your first 5- to 7-minute speech. After your speech, carefully review your feedback. At a different club meeting, present a 5- to 7-minute speech in which you incorporate feedback from your first speech. You may choose to present the same speech again or a new speech. Your second speech should reflect some or all of the feedback from your first speech. Finally, after you have completed both speeches, serve as an evaluator at a club meeting and deliver constructive feedback about another members presentation.

This project includes:

A 5- to 7-minute speech

Incorporating feedback from your first speech into a second 5- to 7-minute speech

Serving as a speech evaluator

Researching and Presenting

This project addresses topic selection strategies, suggestions for research and methods for producing a well organized speech.

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to learn or review basic research methods and present a well-organized, well-researched speech on any topic.

Overview: Select a topic that you are not already familiar with or that you wish to learn more about. Be sure your topic is narrow enough to be an effective 5- to 7-minute speech. Research the topic and begin organizing the information, as described in this project. Practice your speech and continue to refine its organization. Present your speech at a club meeting.

This project includes:

Researching a topic

The Research Worksheet

The Speech Outline Worksheet

A 5- to 7-minute speech

然後我們來逐個看一下，並且參考現有的教育體系，來具體分析一下要求。

Ice Breaker，和我們傳統的CC1是一個標題。一個4-6分鐘的備稿演講，來介紹關於自己的內容。如果大家之前在官網體驗過它的Sample，那麼會發現這個project與CC1還是有一定區別的。在Base Camp里，我們能夠看到演講之前需要的準備工作，能夠看到範例視頻，能夠看到演講前後的自我評估。相當於是一個更加立體的CC1。對老會員來說，你可以參考自己之前CC1的經驗，結合Pathways的指導完成。對於新會員來說，Base Camp的指引非常詳細，完全可以一步步完成。整個過程只需要一次會議。

值得一提的是，Base Camp里對於順序並沒有強制要求，但是仍然推薦大家尤其是新會員，先從Ice Breaker做起。

Evaluation and Feedback，點評與反饋。一個新項目。旨在讓新會員體會並學習點評。點評是頭馬教育體系里非常重要的一環，也是峰會比賽項目之一。這個項目需要最少三次會議，第一次做一個備稿演講，邀請一位點評人。根據點評和反饋，再準備一次備稿演講，邀請同一位點評人。兩次演講完成以後，以點評人的身份為另一位會員做點評。通過親身經歷，完成一個閉環，藉此來體驗點評對演講的重要性，而不是再和以前一樣，CC與CL割裂。這是Pathways的一個重要改進。整個過程需要三次會議，如果正常進行可能需要一個月甚至更久。

Researching and Presenting，與之前的CC7有些像。點開Base Camp才會發現，裡面的內容會有很多變化。而且提供的指導建議更加具體，包含一些簡單的小測試。同時要完成8035和8038兩個表格。以往的CC7並沒有提供這麼具體的形式，往往讓一些演講者有些無所適從。而這次官方提供了建議和指引，可以有效幫助演講者選材、調研以及歸納總結。如果還是按照以往CC7的經驗來做，就會錯過很多新內容。

綜上所述，3個Project一共需要1+3+1次會議才能完成。而在完成Ice Breaker以及整個Lv1，VPE確認之後會由系統發出郵件，通知會員獲得教育獎勵。整個過程更加智能高效。對會員來說，儀式感和成就感也會更突出。對於會員來說，也是更好的激勵。
