Course Introduction

This is a course about communication. During this semester the aim is for you to become more aware of the communication around you, and for you to improve your own skills as a communicator. Sometimes it will seem strange and over-analytical as we dive into the pools of communication over and over again. Much of your own experience will provide the context for talking about this subject. We’ll work hard to use your experiences to understand some of the complicated and enriching ideas we’ll explore.

Course Description

You will give speeches, analyze media, collect an oral history, appreciate a theatre production and better understand your own interpersonal communication strengths and weaknesses.

We will look at many levels of communication, ranging from intrapersonal communication to interpersonal communication, public speaking, group communication, intercultural communication and mass media and communication. Many of the principles we’ll learn will be relevant to all of these different contexts and levels. Hopefully by the end of this course you will not only be a more effective communicator, but you will be much more aware of how the communication around you works.
