Abstract: Having the ability to write and speak well puts an individual at an advantage— may it be in the academe, workplace, or even in the contexts of day-to-day communication. However, developing the writing and speaking skills are also the two macro-skills that the students are often having difficulties with. This study aimed to assess the level of proficiency in Oral Communication particularly speech delivery of Grade-11 students in the far-flung schools of San Marcelino, Zambales, Philippines for the First Semester of School Year 2020-2021. This study also evaluated the usefulness of a crafted Online-Modular Instructional Material in Oral Communication, titled "TICTalk" on the topics of Principles of Effective Speech Writing and Speech Delivery, with Oral Communication teachers as respondent- evaluators.
The researchers used a descriptive-evaluation design with the two sets of questionnaires as the main instrument. The responses were coded and analyzed using descriptive statistics—frequency counts, weighted mean, percentage, and descriptive interpretation. The key findings revealed that the student-respondents are not proficient in Oral Communication and they encountered challenges particularly in Word Choice, Syntax, Logical Organization, and Articulation. In addition, the innovated Online-Modular Instructional Material with the title Trends in Communication Talk (TIC-Talk) was considered "Very Useful" by the teacher-respondent evaluators. The Online- Modular Instructional Material may be used as a learning resource material, for it was rated as Very Useful. Nevertheless, further validation of the material and several consultations must be done by the researcher before the actual wide-range consumption of other educators.
