The Importance of Listening Discussion
? Prompt #1
Identify and define at least one regulative and constitutive rule for interacting in face-to-face situations, and one of each type of rule when communicating over e-mail. Discuss how you learned each of these rules. What happens if these rules are not followed?
Prompt #2
Describe verbal communication between you and a close friend or romantic partner of the other sex. How do you both follow the gender patterns for your respective gender?  How do gender stereotypes factor into this interaction?  Both 1&2 together must be 75 words
Prompt #3
Consider three different friends that you have and discuss their physical appearance. Does their physical appearance affect their personality? Are there certain things about their physical appearance that cause others to stereotype them or prejudge them? If they went to a different country, how would people view them?
Prompt #4
Look around your office or bedroom. How would you analyze the artifacts and environment? What do you these nonverbal say about who you are? How do these items impact your feelings of comfort, identity and security? How would it be different if all of these things disappeared? Both 3&4 together must be 75 words

Prompt #5
Analyze your own listening effectiveness. Using the textbook to guide you, analyze your strengths and weaknesses in terms of the text’s guidelines for effective informational listening and effective relational listening. Identify two listening skills you would like to improve and describe how you plan to develop greater competence in each.
Prompt #6
Effective listening varies according to listening purposes and people with whom we interact. Explain how we adapt styles and behaviors of listening to diverse situations and individuals.  Use the textbook for definitions and supporting material.
Both 5&6 together must be 75 words
? Constructed Meaning and Perception
Provide an example of a situation where you encountered (or an example on television or friend/family experienced, etc.) hate speech or loaded language. Describe that situation fully since I wasn’t there with details of nonverbal communication signals, was it hate speech or loaded language (specify which and why), and other details. How did that language impact you/the person?
What could improve that verbal communication within that situation?
consider these statements from the textbook:
Chapter 3, “there is no intrinsic meaning in phenomena but that humans actively construct meanings and attach values”.
Chapter 4, “language is powerful and that values inherent in the words we use shape our perceptions and those of others.”
Do these two statements contradict or correlate to each other? What things have we learned this far that help support your answer? How does these statements relate back to the situation with hate speech or loaded language?
should be 500 words (roughly 1 – 2 pages double spaced) double spaced and font Times New Roman size 12.
? Social Media Perception
Our choices of social media shape our perceptions of events, issues, and people. Cultural memberships influence the content of digital and online communication. Social media have altered how we perceive time and space. People tend to feel anonymous online, even when they have a name associated with their avatar. On the internet, computer mediated conversations lack body language, voice intonation, and other important nonverbal elements. Without these features, people are compelled to fill in the gaps with assumptions about the nonverbal elements.
For some reason, people become much more sensitive when they’re online, and they tend to blow things entirely out of proportion—for example, taking a couple of sentences originally meant to be humorous or sarcastic entirely the wrong way. It’s even worse if you’ve had a bad day and you’ve decided that “no one likes you” (we’ve all had those moments); you’re much more susceptible to misunderstanding messages. Once that happens, everything can go downhill quickly. Instead of asking for clarification (“You were kidding, weren’t you?”) or just ignoring it, many people—forgetting that they’re dealing with another human being on the other end—decide to defend themselves and tell the originator of the offending message exactly what they think of him or her. This outcome is what’s known in the business as a flame. If both sides begin insulting each other, it’s called a flame war (kind of like fighting fire with fire). These digital battles often erupt in “public” and can sometimes be very entertaining to the lurkers.”
Read the article “The Secret Cause of Flame Wars” to get started on this topic.
Assignment Details:
Create a 5 – 10 slide PowerPoint Presentation
Include a title slide (with your name and introduce the topic you’ll be sharing in the presentation).
Then include slides and describe a situation online where you witnessed trolling and flaming. What was the situation? How were the comments handled?
Do you think this same situation would have happened in a face-to-face environment? Why or why not?
How can situations like this be minimized? Please use the terms for your text about social media and nonverbal and guidelines for improving nonverbal communication found in Chapter 5 to respond to this question.
Must be 600 words
? The Importance of Listening
In a 500 word (2-3 page) paper, reflect on a situation in your professional or personal life where poor listening skills created a problem. Briefly describe the situation, then spend the bulk of your reflection analyzing what went wrong in terms of listening and how, specifically, effective listening would have made a difference.
