Navigating the rough waters of interpersonal communication!
(My mom and I on the river)
Unit One: Beginning our Journey (or just getting to know each other).
Monday - Wednesday (1/12): Quiz over Chapter One (click on Chapter to see a list of the key concepts you need to consider as you read; actual quiz is in Blackboard).
By Wednesday (1/12) : Post a quick introduction to your group in the discussion forum "Naming our Group." Then, please decide on a name for your group (remember you will be stuck with this the entire semester) and email that to me by Friday, January 14.
By Wednesday (1/12): Post your initial answer in your group discussion forum (see information on Units page for Successfully Using Discussion Forums) to the following:
Given the case study on page, 30, "A Misunderstanding Between Friends," what should you do? Write a sentence or two stating exactly what action you feel you should take if you were in this situation. Then, support your decision using information from your text. The format for your answer (and the group's final answer) should be:
Action: Sentence or two
Support: Paragraph or two that provides support, explanation, reasoning using what you have learned in Chapter one, including page numbers.
Wednesday - Wednesday (1/19): Discussion of case study in your groups. Final answers (in the above format) must be posted in your forum by Wednesday, 1/19 with the topic "FINAL ANSWER FOR YOURGROUPNAME".
Friday (1/14): Your first webpage is due today. It is relatively simple:
Things to remember about webpages:
Here's Brandy's example
- Read the information on the Units page about Additions to Interpersonal Analysis webpages (IAW)
- Start early and ask for help often if you are not familiar with building webpages
- Post pictures, if you like, but please do not post too many as that really increases the amount of time to load your page
- Write for the web (information about this on the Units page as well)
Friday - Thursday (1/20): COM 212 Scavenger Hunt
Rules: Simple – be nice! Remember this exercise is not about challenging each other (that will come later:), it is about getting to know one another and making impressions, here’s where you begin practicing your interpersonal skills!
From your classmates websites, find and post these in the class discussion forum "Scavenger Hunt." One post per person is enough. Please check these and respond to people who have posted about your page.
Thursday - Sunday (1/23): Debate final answers for case study in Unit One Debate Discussion Forum (see Units page for information on Debating Final Answers).
Friday (1/21): Final revisions to Unit One Interpersonal Analysis Webpage (IAW) due.
