I feel like self-perception for young people has changed so drastically since social media has become such a huge part of our lives. The constant flow of influencers, trends, and ever changing standards has made trying to fit in to the collective increasingly difficult, due to the amount of extra work that social media has created in showing what is 'normal'. It feels like a constant uphill battle, because every time I start to fall into the pattern of everyone else, it changes completely and I have to scramble to change my personal vibe.

Most of us are extrinsically motivated in the form of working and having a job, because we want a reward, which would be having money and paying our bills, and avoiding a punishment, which would be going into debt or being homeless. Another example would be taking this class. Although I don't like school or going to class (Sorry Mr. Jim) I do these things because I want to get my degree and go into the field I desire to be in, which is the automotive industry.

I've experienced this multiple times, and sometimes experience it on the daily. Being on the phone all day with people who become frustrated and upset can change my view from 'nice person checking on their vehicle' to 'rude customer who is irrational', because I can't do the things they are asking. Although, there have been a few rare situations where the opposite occurred, when an upset person is who I first speak to, then the situation gets resolved and they 'redeem' themselves.

I feel like this is how plot twists happen. When an author has set up a story in a specific way to where the narrative flows together, smaller details start to stand in. But if the author changes the narrative or the vibe immensely in a way that is unexpected, it becomes salient in the form of a plot twist. The same principle can be applied to any form of media, as well as speeches, if the speaker takes their presentation in a different way than expected based on the set up.

I feel like I relate to this immensely, because there is a very specific instance when I see something very particular, I stop everything I'm doing to observe it. I'm often spending time in my driveway washing or working on my car, or sometimes helping my friend with his car. When I do, especially in the later afternoon, my eyes always seem to find themselves gazing on any car that is blue, because of my fascination with a Boost Blue Honda FL5 Type R that is owned by someone in my neighborhood. I have such an interest in this car that I can pick it up so quickly from my peripheral vision, to a point where I literally stop what I'm doing to stare at it as it drives by. If I see another blue car, my head will turn to see if it's the FL5, because I have such high interest for it. (I moved this annotation because this sentence matched better with what I was saying)

So, we learn how to use our perception skills as early as preschool and begin to expand and strengthen our skills throughout life by experiences we face or inherited from our peers.

This is so true; I mean when we are wired to be alert whewn expecting something its almost hard not to be at full attention for noises or movement around us.

So, this made perfect since to me. I mean when you are in an interview and you have no other noise around you to distract you, you are able to relate and relay your information back and forth easily.

Although it should have always been like this, it is definitely a step in the right direction.

never knew this!

privilege

didn't think about it that way!

Isn't Dopamine known as the youth element?

Those words do not sound like Persian language.

Which I am opposed to!

Do you need citation for this? Everybody knows Plato said that!

I agree with this, you can really see your progression in your writing. Each time I revise a draft there is always something to fix and that is really nice to see.

This is something I struggle with personally, I tend to loose track of the main idea because I have so many ideas flowing through my mind and I need to remember to always try to tie things back to the thesis.

I have never tried this method of mapping but it looks really interesting and is something I definitely want to try!

I really agree and resonate with this statement. I am the type of person where information (especially information I'm not particularly interested in) can go through one ear and out the other. However when I annotate and take notes it sticks in my brain more and I feel as though I can add my own thoughts and pieces of info that will help me better understand and retain.

These are the common steps people take when they are beginning their writing process. Although the order can be effective for some people, you do not have to follow each step in order. It may make more sense to someone to start differently. If you reach a point in your writing where you become stuck or there is a problem, it can help to go back through our steps and review.

How do you we that? I'm not sure if you can put your style or writing in the process.

I will try to be organize about my ideas on where I put on essays. I'm not good at organize ideas because I'm not sure where I put first in my essay.

I do agree with this statements "You need to start somewhere". My problem how where I do start to write because the movements, I start to write I get stuck easily knowing where to begin the writing process.

Sometimes, I struggled with grammar on writing. I hardly proofreading my essay because I don't believe I made a mistake on my essay until it is too late when someone else reads my essay.

I agree this sentence that "writing can be daunting" because I still struggle writing even till this today. I don't know how to properly start a paragraph or a sentence and sometime I get writer block when I'm writing.

This viewpoint falls under young people being viewed as resources

From my experience the best addition to this outline is to have a specific point about how this directly connects back to the main point of the speech. It both holds the speech together and makes clear connections back to the main point. Additionally, it ensures that you as the speaker have a clear understanding of how the subpoint connects.

This concept is very present when giving instructions. Being vague is terrible and will often lead to avoidable complications or the work simply not being done. Similarly, being overly creative or flowery is useless when trying to provide specific instructions. If you need to accomplish a task and the instructor who knows what to do, will not stop adding in metaphors or trying to rhyme the steps, it will make the task unbearable and the correct way to perform that task would be lost.

Similar to guiding.

This is incredibly dehumanizing for Dalits. Dalits are outside the varnas; therefore the natural continuation of this metaphor would have Dalits serve as the ground that the body of varnas walk on.

This choice of name strongly reflects the difference in material comforts between US citizens and those of Ghana. Many people here get rid of perfectly wearable clothes all the time but over there it's only conceivable if the clothing's owner had died.

this is a valuable definition because it illustrates the massive breadth of anthropology as a field. "The study of humanity across time and space" is the most vast definition for any field of study I've ever heard of.

important explanation of anthropology's core goal

Connecting it to the previous chapter, the main purpose of this section is to inform. It is not meant to entertain because there are not very many jokes in it. It is also meant to persuade because. The author uses phrases like to paraphrase "college level speeches use scholarly papers only" to influence the audience (New college students) to believe that in order to be at 'college level' they need to use specific sources.

Make quizlet guide for these

I think that it is pretty cool that being in high school and in college are somewhat similar but different in high school you get mostly everything for free but in college you would have to purchase most books.

It's very interesting to see how high school students and college students think differently.

It is nice that they provide the money for us to get these books to learn more but hopefully they will give us more free academic information in the future.

we are divided because people are so used to using technology for everything now days.

Reading a book online or even buying one would be much cheaper then buying a book at a store which would cost more then 100$.

Online books are a good thing because most of the time they are free or you can find them for way less than a 100+ dollars like a physical copy would cost.

I understand that technology and the "real world" are still divided but, what would be an example of information that isn't available to people around the world?

Most of these are multi-step problems. Looking at the problem one thing at a time and breaking it down that way. Same with stochiometry problems.

This statement should be "to inform, to persuade, AND to entertain. No speech worth speaking should merely inform someone. A speech should be engaging and that comes with entertainment. Following with that, every sentence will have some information that will persuade or dissuade the audience to believe it based on the speaker ethos, logos, or pathos. You cannot give an adequate speech without doing all three.

This relates to something I hear on the radio the other day. The radio show segment was about puns and jokes essentially, and the host started by saying "Brittney Spears bought a puppy the other day.... the crazy thing was running all over the house.... oh and the puppy was cute too." This joke struck me as both untasteful and misinformed. Because the host was making fun of Brittney for being short and for her being apparently 'crazy.' Many people believe that she is being manipulated by her father and to make a joke about that was untasteful in my opinion. When making this joke the host did not consider the audience of people who only have compassion for Brittney and would not laugh at her situation.

This type of experiment means that there is a relationship between the two different variables but it isn't a causal link but a correlational link. So we study how the outcomes change based on the manipulations to the variables.

There are some situations where there isn't a way to randomly assign the candidates a treatment. Therefore these experiment designs do not count of this as something they need. instead they focus on the changes to the dependent variable by applying the independent variable to all of the sample.

As the name implied this type of study is about experimenting with one of the variables at play, this could me a medication a meditation regiment or some other form a practice which the researchers believe is effecting the dependent variable.

In the below example the population is the whole class while the sample is the students in the front row. The issue with selecting only the front row is that students that sit in the front row might be the most engaged students meaning they will likely be the highest performers.

First you will need to select a representative sample of universities, or a single university to use as a test case.

due to the nature of the population being studied we will need to gather a representative sample of all voters in the united states. With an N value that is large.

Another way to calculate moles of \(O_2\)

I believe these would be ordinal scale variables as they are ranking them on a predetermined scale.

Ratio scales are like all of the previous variables contained in one. with one important distinction which is that this scale can have a zero value, meaning that someone of this scale can score a zero and it is not in error.

Each group of values in the scale represent the same amount. This means that you can compare the differences between intervals as if they are equivalent.

This is a weighted scale, meaning that each of the variables as a corresponding score and we are trying to determine where the respondents answers fall on that scale.

Un-ordered list of data, all equal in a nominal scale.

All elements are equal as they are rungs on the scale. Thus this does not imply that higher responses carry more weight or vice versa.

Variables that fall on a sliding scale, and can fall within a range of different numbers which include fractions of the variable.

These variables are something that cannot be split into fractions due to the nature of the variable. While the math might say that it was 2.3 children this doesn't make any sense cause .3 of a child wouldn't be a child.

Numbers, something that is numeric in origin.

Something that is measurable but it is not a numeric value. A way to think of this is a categorical variable

5 different elements are being tested against each other and a control.

This means that they participate in the trial but are given something that does not contain the independent variable.

Meaning that they are given the independent variable whatever it might be. Thus they are part of the testing group.

I would like to know why they didn't say that it, "was not statistically significant." But instead chose to say that it was not systematic.

Good N value.

A single study does not mean that there is definative proof but it does tell us that there is a relationship to be studied. And it is out job to try and recreate the study to see if we get a different result.

Hypothesis being tested.

The next question to be studied would be is the difference between the powders significant enough to be considered effective compared to just having a healthy diet.

These are the independent variables giving us three different trials that the researcher is running.

Hypothesis, this is the question that is being studied.

Dependent because the value of the variable will change based on the effectiveness of the anti-depressant.

Independent, because the researcher is changing it between each trial of the experiment.

Not only that, but they are hiding their calculations and data set from the public. Meaning we can't tell if they are cherry picking data, or showing us a correlation and presenting it as a causation.

Up until the speak loudly part this seems like it could be true. But I don't think people like being shouted at.

This seems like it is misleading, because unless there is a disparity between the rate at which men and women smoke then there is something else this data is not telling us.

Marketing is the best example of this, as it is pointed out below. Statistics unlike most information is not as clear cut, because two people cause use a data set to show a different outcome.

Technical descriptions are used a lot in law enforcement. When trying to find a subject you have to be technically descriptive when giving a description of the subject. I see where a lot of topics were learning are used in everyday living.

This is key !!!!!!!!!!!! This is what we all need to succeed. To understand our audience.

I completely agree. You HAVE to know your audience in order for your reader to get an understanding. For example you can't write something intended for a certain audience expecting another audience to understand the relevance.

Statistics, the English of math. As a non-math person I agree.

This should be a dramatic fluctuation when the US legalized the practice, and presumably a drop in the following years to a steady rate. But to know this we would need all historical data.

Correlation not causation.

Not the same but this feels similar to recency bias. Where they are looking at the most recent data and adding more value because of the recent nature. If they were to look at previous years they would see a corresponding bump in the summer, and then they could adjust accordingly.

in Philosophy, this is discussed in depth and the main argument is that consciousness is a product of biochemical reactions in brain and therefore, physical. This mentality expands to dreams, thinking, cognition, etc. and includes all as physical matters. So, this is my challenge: if thoughts and mind are physical and a part of brain and since animals have brain, do animals think?

How did they discover those? It's about human brain so they couldn't test this on animals. Did they damage a poor guy's brain to find out if they lose their balance or can't recognize their family anymore? Devil advocate of course but I'm curious.

I believe this is true because everyone is different and everyone talks differently. For example considering I'm Mexican I may have a higher accent than someone who is just from America.

As I said in one of my last comments I tend to have a lot of trouble communicating my feelings, I know now that stress and anxiety play a part in that. How would I be able to express myself when my body is in fight-or-flight mode?

As soon as I read this I immediately thought of whales. Their use of echolocation to communicate with each other using different vibrations and such. Also, the last chapter talks about cavemen using banging and swooshing noises to send an even clearer message to each other while telling a story.

I went to a baseball game with my boyfriend and they spoke on the intercome about what was going on in the game but I never watched a baseball game in my life so while my bf already decoded it in his head he decoded it for me out loud as well about who's winning.

I have never been well at communicating with others especially when my feelings are in the way. Sometimes I don't know how to accurately describe how I'm feeling and feel it comes off as rude because I just stay quiet.

As someone who grew up in a time where every household had a computer, and computers were widely used in schools, I think this whole paragraph is fascinating in reviewing the way that the internet and social media has affected our way of communication. It seems that everyone nowadays has some form of social media, and when I meet new people in real life, one of the first things that they ask me is "do you have Snap or Insta?" The thought have having to call on the phone or go to someone's house to talk to them or make plans is so foreign to me in my life, since I can send a text to my best friend asking what we want to do after work. I think looking at the way social media has changed the way that we communicate and connect will be interesting as we progress through this class.

Texting is very straight to the point and straightforward for the transmission model. But for the interaction model it's about the interaction. Now a days my friends and I have whole conversations through text. WE are great friends that I usually know the emotion that is behind a message. Texting can be hard though without seeing the persons demeanor ofr facial expressions.

I believe that this is a major part of communication in today's society. I mean we are always driving from one place to another if it's not to work or to a friend's house, it could be on a vacation but we as people are always listening to something in the car. The news for example is always interesting and is a good way to make people aware of what could be going on around them. If not, the news it could be music that you perceive messages through with quick ad breaks in between trying to sell or promote something.

This is exactly the way society has become these days. Everyone is either on a phone or some device while others are into their video games. I mean it is always a daily struggle with me and my family since I choose not to be consumed every day by a device. I have to always repeat myself to my kids or partner because they are consumed by their technology or faces so deep in their phones. It literally drives me crazy.

I never really understood this aspect of communication until I read this in the text. I mean it is very important that the person who is trying to get a point across or relays a message is being heard and understood. Never really pay attention to how they might not get the message perceived due to the nature of their surroundings. I do take note of this because sometimes I have to repeat something or have someone relay a message back to me because of surrounding noises blocking what they were trying to convey.

None of the writer's biases should be mentioned.

You are to essentially highlight the key ideas and points.

Quotes and paraphrasing are completely different and should not be mixed or it can cause you points.

Writers need to constantly re address the topic being discussed.

It is primary because it is new and is coming directly from the source.

Primary sources are better than secondary sources.

Not a strong source of evidence.

I like using bullets in my reports. Especially when I am listing of items or events.

I always use the "hanging-head" format. It helps me with my writing and it makes it easier for my writing flow.

How could the society develop so many life changing inventions but still not have it accessible to everyone in the world?

This is so fascinating to me because we don't even realize on a day-to-day basis how far we have come. I never thought so hard about how people communicate after reading this. We went from gestures to making noises with gestures, then talking and writing. I've always wondered how babies learn to communicate besides crying.

I love how this book is already is fighting the misconception communication degrees are useless. There was this show I watched called Scream Queens and all the sorority girls said their communication girls was useless. They had to scramble to find jobs. It's really interesting what is on this list, like public relations, marketing, media. These are all jobs these sorority girls would love. A lot of jobs with communication degrees, especially those associated with technology, looks like they will grow and there will be more opportunities for those with communication degrees.

Like Obama or hate him, Obama is a highly memorable president. Obama isn't just memorable just for being the first black president, he is remembered for his revolutionary ideas and dedication to human rights. Obama advocated for rights for his own group and groups that Obama did not belong too, like gay rights. I often wonder if Obama was white, would he be remembered as one the best presidents of our time?

I love seeing how much communication has evolved over civilization. The printing press marked a big milestone in civilization. When printing presses were widespread, this put power in the people's hands. Freedom of religion increased and free speech in general increased. From the printing press, communication evolved faster, because things could now be mass produced. The printing press is still essential 500 years later for widespread communication. A little over 500 years later, another communication milestone was invented, the internet. With the internet, it mirrors the invention of the printing press where widespread communication was available for the first time in history. With the internet, it meant widespread communication was now available anywhere. The internet was such a milestone, communication evolved faster than ever and now a new era is beginning, the digital era.

I have often wondered how humans first started to communicate. Humans first words being onomatopoeias make a lot of sense. Humans probably learned how to talked based on imitating sounds. This actually is how all humans learn to talk, is by imitation. When young children learn to talk, they do it by imitating their parents.

Those suffering from the symptoms of mental illness disconnect from their internal voice. When someone who suffers from mental illness is exhibiting symptoms usually they stop having intrapersonal narrative. This is caused by the individuals mistrust of their own brain. They know somethings wrong so they cannot rely on their thoughts to be based on reality. Once treated individuals slowly learn to trust oneself again.

Using physical and oral cues can provoke a desired response. Ask any good therapist or market manager. People are hardwired to respond to certain sounds and sights with preprogramed responses. Most individuals never know they are being manipulated.

The way we communicate now through text and e-mail is still a form of written communication. The real difference is the words used and their context. Letters written by Presidents Lincoln and Reagan were so elegant and descriptive. Now its all about brevity, There would be less misunderstandings if e-mail and text were filled with descriptive words that conveyed the authors true meaning.

This was touched on at the beginning of the chapter, but the involvement and importance of other forms of communication outside merely spoken language is vitally important, and being taught how to convey and control something as subtle but impactful as body language while speaking can make a huge difference in the success and reception of someone's speech. No matter the topic or even the language at hand, someone standing on a stange speaking has a far greater chance of engagement if they're walking, gesturing, giving he appearance that they themselves are invested in whatever it is they're talking about over someone standing bone still and simply talking; it conveys a lack of interest or potentially a lack of knowledge about what they're talking about, even if that's not inherently true when listening to the words being said, which is why using body language and imagery in addition to speaking is so vital, and I am personally so interested in this class over other typical "speech" classes that just tell you how to talk at someone for a few minutes. Engagement in the targeted recipient is key, and that's something I think most don't initially consider when they think of a oral communication class.

This particular concept hits home for me, as someone who first of all has ADHD behaviors and finds myself scattered amongst many tasks inadvertently simultaneously, as well as someone who works in the critical care department of a hospital and often has to juggle many time-sensitive tasks at once. Speaking to myself out loud can help he focus on what I'm doing rather than the cacophony of sounds going on around me to help me stay grounded in what I'm doing. It can also help redirect me when I have gone down a rabbit hole in my to-do list at home and help bring me back to the task at hand to help me complete tasks rather than do several only partially. Talking to myself from time to time helps pull my immediate conscious focus to what I'm saying, away from all of the other scattered communication going on all around me, whether it's meant for me or not.

The first documented form of written language was cuneiform, which was simply crude small symbols of literal objects like birds, trees, etc to convey a message. It initially could've transcended language barriers of small pockets of societies that had their own, different spoken languages if the symbols were easily recognizable. This is a fascinating second boom in the broad term of communication that helped further bring that definition into a more widespread and even more cohesive ability to convey a message. It plays into the humans innate ability to recognize visual cues in combination with language to solidify a point.

This ability to share a common form of communication and subsequently understanding helps create pockets of societies and further advancements possible with the use of teamwork that other, solo individuals could achieve. This pushed the success of this communication forward into more widespread use, like a black hole sucking in others around it attracted to the safety and success of that society. Like group projects or a complicated or large task, more is generally achievable with multiple individuals all communicating their role in the overall goal, rather than one person doing all the work themselves, especially with any level of time frame involved in the task being completed.

With 126 published definitions of "communication," touching on other forms of communication other than merely speaking in a speech class is vital. With humans having some of the widest range of speech (i.e. various languages) that often times are not seamless, other universal abstract symbolism in conjunction with spoken communication is necessary to bridge the gap. Even our written language and assigned meaning to certain methodic squiggles displayed on paper varies widely, as well as other less obvious ways of communicating like gestures and body languages that could seem inconsequential to one may be monumentally offensive to others, the intricate woven methods to communicate within the complexities we as a human species have created is a fascinating study beyond merely standing in front of a group of peers and talking at them for 3-5 minutes about a chosen topic.

I "talk to myself" all the time. I feel like my intrapersonal dialogue with myself helps me stay organized and helps me be calm. It makes sense that intrapersonal communication doesn't have a lot of research on it because everyone's minds are different. I have to run conversations through my head when I am about to make a phone call. I practice what I am going to say.

I'd like to reflect on this statement using situations that I experience on the daily as a central receptionist. My entire job is speaking to people on the phone that I will never interact with again. When the conversation drifts from connecting people to sales and service, it can range anywhere from people asking about my day, or commenting on the weather, to complete strangers explaining their situations with their vehicles and other tidbits of their life. Along with customers, I also interact on the daily with advisors and salespeople, from the Ford dealership down the street, to other receptionists up in Alaska. Although I never see these people in real life (save for a few advisors at one of our local locations) I can call them my friends, rather than coworkers, based on our interactions with each other. The dichotomy of interpersonal relations I experience on the daily is an interesting example of the variety of communication we experience in our lives.

I find it very interesting that there are quite literally over a hundred definitions of the word 'communication.' If you step back and look at a popular definition, "the imparting or exchanging of information or news" (Oxford Definitions), it paints a picture of the irony of such a statement. Human communication has such a span on our history as a species, that the literal definition of the word we use to describe understanding each other has gone through a telephone-game- style treatment. As word of mouth has translated to written word, even now we can't decide on the definition of key phrases in human nature, such as 'communication'.

Intrapersonal communication is one of the many types of communication that is a conversation of an individual taking place in one's mind. Percy Jackson main protagonist of Percy Jackson and The Olympians series by Rick Riordan uses a good majority of intrapersonal communication throughout the series. Percy uses this communication to let out his anger and also to process of losing his mom from the "mortal" world, (which she was taken to the Underworld). At the end of the first book he communicates to himself once he learned that one of his friends was "the lightning thief".

Mass communication is electronically sending a message to a large group of people in one go. This type of communication reminds me of the screens in the Hunger games movies. President Snow the main antagonist of the movies "electronically sends a message" to the different districts of the Capital. President Snow uses mass communication to his advantage to present warnings to those who break a law of the Capital.

Intrapersonal communication is directly focused on communication in our heads. Which can make us reflect our individual thoughts. I can connect this type communication to the main character in the book Matched by Allly Condle. The main character Cassia Reyes reflects lots of her thoughts, having a intrapersonal communication with herself.

I don't like to do group project with people I don't know. But I learned doing them helps others receive different ideas on the topic. I tend to be quiet and listen to other peoples ideas on the topic. I 100% agree that group communication / projects "it provides useful experience and preparation" even if I don't like participating in them.

I can connect this piece of text that talks about public speaking and how people have a fear of it. When I took my speech classes in highschool I would tend to talk really fast due to my nervousness. When I do public speaking for instance like a presentation for a class I don't have the clearest voice because it tends to get shaky. I'm hoping that this class will help with my fear of public and also provide techniques that I can use.

I feel like we plan to have conversations every day with somebody we love or even a peer, but I feel even more strongly about unplanned conversations are almost more common. For example, the cashier at the grocery store that we just have a conversation about how there day might have been, or how the weather might have been. Another example could be your neighbor outside when you arrive home from work, and you conversate about how busy your day was. In all actuality we are having Interpersonal conversations in every aspect of our lives and days.

I think that this is a very interesting part of the text, and never really put much thought into Intrapersonal Communication because we do it without thinking about it. I mean i actually sit here throughout my day and tell myself I need to do this, or this should be done by this date. It is just something we do every day.

Mass communication wasn't able to be accessed easily at one-point in time. Now because of social media and the internet pretty much anyone can gain a platform and say almost anything they want. Journalists at one point were one of the biggest forms of mass communication, now newspapers are hardly read, and articles are read by the niche group they're written for. Magazines are rarely read for anything other than gossip. Mass communication is everywhere. The FBI has a twitter account, local police departments have Facebook pages. Mass communication is everywhere amber alerts and extreme weather announcements are a few forms. mass communication is everywhere "Television, websites, blogs, and social media are mass communication channels that you probably engage with regularly. Radio, podcasts, and books are other examples of mass media. The technology required to send mass communication messages distinguishes it from the other forms of communication."

I actually enjoy public speaking; I talk a lot, so I rarely have a problem with presentations or speaking events. I know a lot of people that have immense anxiety when it comes to talking in front of a group, and I used to but one day I just got over it. So many people have to speak publicly, politicians, teachers, singers, cops, judges, and many other positions. Whenever I have to present something, I ask myself, "What is the worst thing that could happen?" I stumble over my words, I mess up a sentence, someone in my class thinks I'm stupid. None of it matters to me, because at the end of the day I'm likely going to be the only person that remembers the topic or the presentation. Many people fear public speaking, " 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." A lot of people don't know how to talk to a group or simply can't, and that's okay. Public speaking can be extremely nerve racking, some people will never be able to, and that's totally fine because it's not really an everyday thing like intrapersonal communication.

I have slight control issues and I usually am the group talker/presenter. So, when group events arise, I usually try to put myself in a leadership role. I have had previous issues when I meet someone like myself and I have learned to let go of some of my "controlling behavior." Group communication occurs, obviously, in groups. Groups always have a task or a responsibility to do, "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." Group communication can be either wonderful or the worst thing you have ever experienced.

Everyone on this planet has intrapersonal communication. I talk to myself every day, and I have conversations with myself on what I'm going to do or what I need to do. Some people talk to themselves to calm down, or they journal to ease their minds. When something surprising happens people usually react somehow in their head, basically when anything happens people react to themselves. Just as the text states, "We also use intrapersonal communication or “self-talk” to let off steam, process emotions, think through something, or rehearse what we plan to say or do in the future." Intrapersonal communication happens almost every second throughout one person's day.

We still see this today, there are set class systems in today's society. There is of course; lower class, middle class, and high class. There have always been class systems in human society and there will always continue to be class systems. There is always someone on top and someone on the bottom. This ties into the paragraph preceding this one, "While such transactions were initially tracked with actual objects that symbolized an amount—for example, five pebbles represented five measures of grain—symbols, likely carved into clay, later served as the primary method of record keeping. In this case, five dots might equal five measures of grain." Class starts with money and money creates class. In the early ages of society, religions had multiple Gods and deities. As society progressed these religions were slowly lost. The further that society came the more religion became a high power. Religion is still deeply rooted in our economic and political systems today.

In certain situations where public communication was present I struggle a bit. I have participated in theatre and I have no problem presenting myself in front of an audience. However in front of my english class it felt different. I realize now that because I was telling stories to people, there was a personal connection present. In english class I didn't make a connection. Now i know making that more comfortable link to people I do not know will benefit the way i communicate publicly.

I find myself using forms of intrapersonal communication in places like the dentist office. I arrive early and check in and then sit down pondering upon many things like what i'll do for the rest of my day. Other places could include waiting in line at the movie theater. It indeed does help pass time, and i find it interesting that we as human collectively do this. Learning that intrapersonal communication is used by all makes me feel more knowledgeable about our society.

The act of theatrical improv is a form of public speaking in an entertaining way. An actor presenting in front of an audience and shaping the show around what pops into their head. They might ask several audience members for different situations and come up with an amusing scene. This makes the audience feel connected and encourages further participation. This practice is beneficial and a positive form of communication.

We are all capable of anything we put our minds to. With proper guidance we can achieve those goals. That SPEAKS to me

Functionalists were more interested in the operation of the whole mind rather than of its individual parts

First American psychologist who espoused a different perspective on how psychology should operate

Wundt’s version of introspection used only very specific experimental conditions in which an external stimulus was designed to produce a repeatable experience of the mind These experimental requirements were put in place to eliminate “interpretation” in the reporting of internal experiences and to counter the argument that there is no way to know that an individual is observing their mind or consciousness accurately, since it cannot be seen by any other person.

The best way to learn is by asking questions. This is a philosophy I've lived with for most of my life, and it has helped me progress far further than I ever would if I'd been too afraid to ask certain questions in my life. One of the biggest things you can learn in life is that communication can be used for your benefit. My biggest hobby is cars, and there is so much I wouldn't know if I didn't ask more seasoned enthusiasts, or owners of specific cars I didn't know much about, even if it makes me look unknowledgeable and novice. As my friend Cody says, "Sometimes you gotta be cringe to be happy."

This has become more prevelant in out lives now that most of us communicate a lot through text messages. You can't see/feel the emotion behind the message so things can be taken the wrong way. It is so easy to be offended when the message is read wrong. Even through texting you can clarify what the sender was trying to communicate and to learn the context.

People who have taken the time to learn to communicate in a different language are competent. From my experience with my family which for some members English is not their first language, it surprises me when people see it as a negative. That it is a hinderance to speak in a broken tone. It is interesting to see that competence in communication changes on the different spaces you are in. It fascinates me because it is visible in many different places.

I find this paragraph interesting in the way that our entire government and way of life in America as a democratic country is dependent on communication, in this case mass communication through a voting system. With a presidential election coming up next year, forms of communication from politicians to voters such as advertisements and debates are going to become more front and center, as politicians play on your civic duty to vote. Voting is not the only form of civic communication, as things like serving jury duty are, too. When you are tried by your peers in a court of law, they are communicating to you their response to your actions and character, in determining whether or not you are guilty or not guilty.

Most of these tactics, i hate to say that I have used when parenting my children. After reading about these tactics it makes sense that everyone uses these tactics in their personal or professional lives. In my parenting, loss of privileges and grounding works best with my teenagers. Altruism works with my littles because Mother knows best. Also giving my kids compliments and encouragement to get a task done helps their self-esteem.

I never thought about how communication can help with poor listening skills and lack of conciseness when speaking, I would think that communication was just that how to speak to someone. It is interesting to think that if we do not communicate well, it can affect our success.

When moving to a new town I noticed how much harder it was to thrive in the various social situations. Any attempt I didn't make was detrimental to my health. Once i made connections the improvement was visible. I find it helpful to know this information is proven to benefit us as humans. Yes, for our survival, but also allowing us to live fulfilled and complete lives.

So she is contradicting herself.

So in this article they used the word rhetoric to distract the audience of what the actual problem is? Was rhetoric being misused?

Addition Rule #1

• Events that are mutually exclusive!

*** think - there should be NO overlap outcomes between events! ***

• Remember to add all of the trail event outcomes!

Addition Rule #2

• Events that are NOT mutually exclusive!

*** think - it has overlap outcomes between events! ***

• Remember to subtract the overlap outcomes!

It's always great to double check your work for any issues before submitting the final draft.

I agree, readers like myself need something that will catch my attention. If it's not appealing then why would anyone want to continue reading it ?

Very true. How can I trust what your writing if your not confident with what your trying to tell your reader

Your readers must feel confident in trusting your writing.

Sentence structure and punctuation are my problem areas when in my writing. I hope to improve wthis.

If you know what your purpose is and who the targeted audience is, your writing will be much easier to complete.

Knowing who the audience is, will help with the topic and tone used in the writing.

Note that Event A and Event C does NOT have similar number outcomes.

Since there is no overlap, this would make both events as mutually exclusive!

Note that Event A and Event B have overlap.

They both have the same outcome number: 4 and 5

Which means that there are 2 outcomes that occurs. This makes Event A and Event B NOT mutually exclusive!

Event A affects the change sample space (sum) for Event B.

Event B's sample space will be smaller compared to Event A's sample space.

Event A does not change sample space (sum) for Event B

The readers have to be able to understand what they are reading.

Having someone else read your writing, is always good. Having another set of eyes will give you a different perspective of your writing and could point out mistakes they you as the writer could have overlooked.

It is important for the audience to be able to read your writing without feeling confused. If they are confused, they will not be able to enjoy what they read
