ntrapersonal communication serves several social functions. Internal vocalization, or talking to ourselves, can help us achieve or maintain social adjustment (Dance & Larson, 1976). For example, a person may use self-talk to calm himself down in a stressful situation, or a shy person may remind herself to smile during a social event. Intrapersonal communication also helps build and maintain our self-concept. We form an understanding of who we are based on how other people communicate with us and how we process that communication intrapersonally.
I strongly agree with the person using a self-talk in a stressful situation. this is the Methode I also use, and I find it helpful, because deciding or using intrapersonal communication when stress, can help you find a better solution in my own view. Its might be different with others but works good for me.
-
Intrapersonal communication is communication with oneself using internal vocalization or reflective thinking. Like other forms of communication, intrapersonal communication is triggered by some internal or external stimulus. We may, for example, communicate with our self about what we want to eat due to the internal stimulus of hunger, or we may react intrapersonally to an event we witness. Unlike other forms of communication, intrapersonal communication takes place only inside our heads. The other forms of communication must be perceived by someone else to count as communication. So what is the point of intrapersonal communication if no one else even sees it?
Intrapersonal communication can be beneficial if used properly. For example If we get angry and yell at someone, we can use intrapersonal communication to reflect on our actions. And when we realize that our behavior made things worse, we can go and apologize to the person we hurt. However, if used improperly, it can lead to serious consequences. If all we are communicating to ourselves are feelings of anger, jealousy, depression, it can lead to harmful outcomes such as school shootings, family issues, or work problems.

James A. Winans, one of the first modern speech teachers and an advocate for teaching communication in higher education, said there were “two motives for learning to speak. Increasing one’s chance to succeed and increasing one’s power to serve” (Keith, 2008)
I can confirm what James A. Winans said is true. My motivation to expand my vocabulary was to become successful and achieve more in life. I started reading more books to improve my writing, as my sentences often felt muddled and were never quite right. Expanding my vocabulary through reading has led to results, helping me reach a higher level of success.
-
During this period, villages also developed class systems as more successful farmers turned businessmen prospered and took leadership positions. Religion also became more complex, and a new class of spiritual leaders emerged. Soon, armies were needed to protect the stockpiled resources from others who might want to steal it. The emergence of elite classes and the rise of armies required records and bookkeeping, which furthered the spread of written symbols. As clergy, the ruling elite, and philosophers began to take up writing, the systems became more complex.
I like this part of the chapter because it reflects something I have personally experienced: To become more successful or achieve more in life, I always needed to expand my vocabulary. Whether in my personal life, work or school. Improving my vocabulary helped me not only achieve higher levels of success but also communicate more clearly and concisely.
-
Public communication becomes mass communication when it is transmitted to many people through print or electronic media. Print media such as newspapers and magazines continue to be an important channel for mass communication, although they have suffered much in the past decade due in part to the rise of electronic media.
Not too fond of posting on social media outlets. I used to be but then I saw how many people can invade your privacy. Never been a fan of tic tock and never downloaded it. I would rather interact on a face-to-face platform than media. Can be manipulated to easily and things are not what they appear to be.
-
Public communication, at least in Western societies, is also more sender focused than interpersonal or group communication. It is precisely this formality and focus on the sender that makes many new and experienced public speakers anxious at the thought of facing an audience.
This is my least favorite form of communication as I get pretty nervous in front of audiences. I prefer the smaller settings but if needed with tons of practice I can deliver a speech if necessary.
-
Goal-oriented communication at the group level usually focuses on a task assigned to the whole group; for example, a group of people may be tasked to figure out a plan for moving a business from one office to another. You know from previous experience working in groups that having more communicators usually leads to more complicated interactions. Some of the challenges of group communication relate to task-oriented interactions, such as deciding who will complete each part of a larger project.
I really enjoy this setting of communication as it lends itself to learning new ways of looking and dealing with different situations. Helps me to realize the differences in points of view and how to overcome the obstacle.
-
nterpersonal communication builds, maintains, and ends our relationships, and we spend more time engaged in interpersonal communication than the other forms of communication.
Sometimes because I am more on a level of Intrapersonal voice, I expect people to read my cues. I've really had to work on more one-on-one communication to avoid misunderstandings in making sure that my delivery is being received correctly. So, I've really learned to ask questions after communicating so that I know there are no issues with my one on one communicatio.

Intrapersonal communication is communication with oneself using internal vocalization or reflective thinking. Like other forms of communication, intrapersonal communication is triggered by some internal or external stimulus
I am constantly using inner voice dialogue. It is a 24/7 thing. Seems like it never ends. Constanly going over things in my head before they are spoken or written. In the catagory of constant overthinking. Always thinking of the reactions to my actions and so on.
-
Memory is the least studied of the five canons and refers to the techniques employed by speakers of that era to retain and then repeat large amounts of information.
Repetitive information and retaining is something that I struggle with. My dyslexia and my attention span really interfere with my studying methods. So I am always finding ways to incorporate what is learned and put it to use immediately so that I can hold onto it.

children and adults have different qualities and characteristics
assuming the children grow into adults quickly?? if so i agree that this development is discontinuous, the change is rapid, but same time disagree it says continuous development is when an adult doesn't show new school, but more advanced skill compared to what was already found in the child. what if the child was taught the same as the adult, wouldn't that be discontinuous if the child and adult advance in the same skill. if the child has the cognition to understand basics, as the adult, both would have reached advanced skill simultaneously?

Your brand is how others perceive you, not how you think of yourself. Have to be self aware, a good brand opens a door of opportunities. Self awareness, good story, intriguing.

Watch the video below for some perspective on the size and depth of the oceans.
The video talk about how deep the ocean is, the different creatures that live underwater, and shows where the tallest buildings or mountains would reach underwater. I was amazed that water can heat up to 800 degrees around hydrothermal vents and am curious to learn more about the chemical characteristics at that point underwater. I was also amazed that there is an estimate of thousands of species undiscovered until this day under the ocean, and excited to see how technology advances in that field.
-
I think it's very interesting that humans have only explored 5-10 percent of the ocean. I'm wondering how it's possible for animals to live in the deep depths of the ocean with the large amount of pressure. Could there be any megalodon type sharks still alive that we have not yet discovered?

Because of these limitations, we use different map projections to represent the Earth, depending on the needs of the presenter.
I think it's very interesting how map projections often have one or more disadvantages. It's very telling of how intricate Earth and geography is.
-
Other map types include bathymetric maps (Figure 2.4.42.4.4\PageIndex{4}). These are similar to topographic maps for terrestrial locations, with lines connecting areas of equal depth.
I wonder why that they chose to use the proximity of lines in order to measure the depth of the ocean? It seems to me like there are better ways to convey depth in the ocean, like heat maps where a color gradient represents depths.
-
It is extremely interesting comparing these projections to those made back in 150 AD by Ptolemy. Seeing different maps as they saw them, and comparing them to what we recognize them as in the present day is very helpful to understanding how far we have come.

The first major distinction is between the pelagic and benthic zones. The pelagic zone refers to the water column, where swimming and floating organisms live. The benthic zone refers to the bottom, and organisms living on and in the bottom are known as the benthos.
Is there a word for organisms that reside within both pelagic and benthic zones?

The rate at which the line unspooled was measured by counting the number of knots that passed through the sailor’s hands in a certain amount of time. Since it was originally measured as the number of knots per unit time, speed over water traditionally uses the unit of “knots” to indicate speed. One knot (kt) = 1 nautical mile per hour = 1.15 mph = 1.85 kph.
It is interesting to me that a lot of the units that are primarily used on the sea have stuck around and were created out of practicality and even though they had different units of length that were in use on land, sailors opted to use these.
-
Why would a nautical mile be any longer than a normal mile? Just because one is on water and one is on land should not change how long a mile is.

All symbolic communication is learned, negotiated, and dynamic. We know that the letters b-o-o-k refer to a bound object with multiple written pages. We also know that the letters t-r-u-c-k refer to a vehicle with a bed in the back for hauling things. But if we learned in school that the letters t-r-u-c-k referred to a bound object with written pages and b-o-o-k referred to a vehicle with a bed in the back, then that would make just as much sense, because the letters don’t actually refer to the object and the word itself only has the meaning that we assign to it. We will learn more, in Chapter 8 “Verbal Communication”, about how language works, but communication is more than the words we use.
It's interesting how, for those who grew up with English as their native language, the symbol for a big brown thing sticking out of the ground with green puffs is recognized as a 'tree.' In other languages, the symbols or words might be similar or completely different. As someone who is bilingual, I've noticed that the word for 'tree' in our second language is significantly different from the English term. If we were to integrate that word into the English language, it would have no meaning at all.

Professionally, employers desire employees with good communication skills, and employees who have good listening skills are more likely to get promoted.
Communicating is part of life, if a customer comes up to an employee and asks where something is and the response is just a shrug of the shoulders or a quite whisper of a voice the customer is going to consider that rude and disrespectful. Along with the employer because they could be losing a customer. Showing effort and drive helps with promotions and also could lead to connections that could help you in the future.

My students often remark that they already know from experience much of what’s discussed in the interpersonal unit of the course. While we do learn from experience, until we learn specific vocabulary and develop foundational knowledge of communication concepts and theories, we do not have the tools needed to make sense of these experiences. Just having a vocabulary to name the communication phenomena in our lives increases our ability to consciously alter our communication to achieve our goals, avoid miscommunication, and analyze and learn from our inevitable mistakes
I agree with this I remember when I was just a little kid, I would help my Dad do refrigeration repairs. I did learn from experience how to fix and repair different types of units but I eventually needed my licenses which involved a test and to have the knowledge of specific vocabulary. Over all they both go hand in hand.
-
Communication ethics varies by culture and context and involves the negotiation of and reflection on our actions regarding what we think is right and wrong
Regardless of how we communicate, everything we do verbally or non-verbally has a profound effect on others around us including ourselves. We are governed to communicate in ways that can be right and wrong. But how we move forward with the skills help us in the long run.

The United States is considered an individualistic culture, where emphasis is put on individual expression and success
Individual expression and success seem so dry. I think of the country being compared to the US and how they are more focused on cohesion and harmony which don't make for cutthroat environments. It allows people to learn together as groups and support one another. Just my opinion.
-
Communication allows us to present ourselves to others in particular ways.
Identity needs to me the many different faces or hats that we use in our daily lives when interacting. Conforming and non-conforming to the stimulus received. How we project ourselves either on a personal or more professional level.
-
Offering rewards. Seeks compliance in a positive way, by promising returns, rewards, or generally positive outcomes. Threatening punishment. Seeks compliance in a negative way, by threatening negative consequences such as loss of privileges, grounding, or legal action. Using expertise. Seeks compliance by implying that one person “knows better” than the other based on experience, age, education, or intelligence. Liking. Seeks compliance by acting friendly and helpful to get the other person into a good mood before asking them to do something. Debt. Seeks compliance by calling in past favors and indicating that one person “owes” the other. Altruism. Seeks compliance by claiming that one person only wants “what is best” for the other and he or she is looking out for the other person’s “best interests.” Esteem. Seeks compliance by claiming that other people will think more highly of the person if he or she complies or think less of the person if he or she does not comply.
Seems like these practices are very common in daily living and professional environments. Especially when in higher positions and dealing with various individuals from diverse backgrounds.
-
Research has shown that introductory communication courses provide important skills necessary for functioning in entry-level jobs, including listening, writing, motivating/persuading, interpersonal skills, informational interviewing, and small-group problem solving
Being able to communicate and change your style of delivery can have a profound effect on how well you do socially, academically, and professionally. More desirable for employers to have someone skilled in this aspect.

Large-scale mapping of the ocean floor is also carried out by satellites (originally SEASAT, then GEOSAT, now the Jason satellites) which use radio waves to measure the height of the sea surface (radar altimetry). The sea surface is not flat; gravity causes it to be slightly higher over elevated features on the ocean floor, and slightly lower over trenches and other depressions. Satellites send out radio waves, and similar to an echosounder, can use the returning waves to detect differences in sea surface height down to 3-6 cm (Figure 1.4.51.4.5\PageIndex{5}). These differences in sea surface heights allow us to determine the topography under the surface. Unlike the old lead line technology, where hundreds of soundings were necessary to map a small area, each taking an hour or more to complete, the current satellites can map over 90% of Earth’s ice-free sea surface every 10 days!
I think using satellites for large-scale mapping is a great idea because they can measure tiny changes in sea surface height to reveal underwater features like mountains and trenches. It's faster and covers more area than sonar method, which needs more resources (ships, crew, etc) to do so.

Communication is a complex process, and it is difficult to determine where or with whom a communication encounter starts and ends. Models of communication simplify the process by providing a visual representation of the various aspects of a communication encounter. Some models explain communication in more detail than others, but even the most complex model still doesn’t recreate what we experience in even a moment of a communication encounter
I find it fascinating, that human communication is so complex that even the most advanced communication models can't fully replicate even a moment of what we experience in real conversations. For example, a simple chat about your day with someone would be far too intricate for any communication model to truly capture the depth of what we go through in communication.
-
ansmission model of communication describes communication as a linear, one-way process in which a sender intentionally transmits a message to a receive
I sometimes have to stop myself from conveying to much in how I communicate nonverbally. Many times, because I am quiet until I know you it can make people feel uncomfortable or intimidated. Which is never an intention of mine, but it comes across quite a bit.

Wave action and the movement of sediments over the shelf have continued this smoothing process. Continental shelves only make up about 6% of the ocean’s surface area, but they are biologically one of the richest parts of the ocean; their shallow depth prevents nutrients from sinking out, and their proximity to the coast provides significant nutrient input
I find it interesting that the nutrients on the continental shelves don't wash into the abyssal plain over time and instead lead the way for the rich sanctuaries of life. I wonder what percentage of species reside on this specific 6% of the ocean surface?

Remember, you are not alone. Public speaking anxiety is common, so don’t ignore it—confront it.
More people than you would think have anxiety and even social anxiety. I also don't think having any kind of anxiety wither it be personal or public speaking comes from genetics. My reasoning is all my family is quiet except for me until you get them talking about a subject they know or are interested in. So being prepared is a helpful way to get over anxiety.
-
Before you have built up a rich cognitive knowledge base of communication concepts and practiced and reflected on skills in a particular area, you may exhibit unconscious incompetence, which means you are not even aware that you are communicating in an incompetent manner.
This can also apply to a person who just started a new job. What I have experienced is when a new employee will just stand around and not seek information or direction. Even if they had a similar role or their resume indicated they have the knowledge sometimes the new employee "exhibits unconscious incompetence."
-
Decades of research conducted by communication scholars shows that communication apprehension is common among college students (Priem & Solomon, 2009). Communication apprehension (CA) is fear or anxiety experienced by a person due to actual or imagined communication with another person or persons. CA includes multiple forms of communication, not just public speaking.
I agree with this statement, I also think it has to do with someone being well prepared on the knowledge of their topic they are speaking on. I'm not a shy person, but if i don't know information i'm supposed to be talking about I know i would g et bad anxiety.
