description Given the profound impact of Technology, Entertainment, Design (TED) Talks and Toastmasters International (TI) on Public Speaking Competency (PSC), this study aimed to integrate them into the local non-English speaking tertiary vocational education system. Concomitantly, under-recognized mother-tongue PSC education also confronts the challenge of managing densely populated classrooms. This study designed a TED-TI classroom instructional strategy and developed employment-oriented mother-tongue PSC courses using the ADDIE design model. In the analysis stage, design motivation of the capacity rebuilding and pedagogy demands is clarified; in the design stage, a TED-TI classroom teaching model is created; in the development stage, mother-tongue PSC and employment elements are integrated to produce auxiliary textbooks, TED Thinking Taskbook and TI Meeting-style Training Booklet; in the implementation and evaluation stage, TED-TI is optimized through internal design validation. These promising pilot results suggest the potential for expanding TED-TI, including larger-scale applications, extending beyond Mandarin, further investigating local employment promotion schemes via PSC, and aiding countries in grappling with educational equity challenges.
