Description
This course develops students’ awareness of what is happening when a person communicates with other individuals – family, friends, relational partners, and members of communities. Students will analyze how identity, verbal and nonverbal communication, listening, emotions, conflict management, and relational dynamics affect their interpersonal experiences with others. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to apply scholarly research and observation to assess how these choices impact them personally, as well as their success at work, as a relational partner, as a family member, and as a contributing member of their communities.
