Activity Feed Discussions Blogs Bookmarks Files

Think of blogs as self-published mini articles. Share your experiences and challenges. Share your successful and failed strategies. Share your proven techniques and best practices. And don’t forget to solicit comments from your peers so we can all learn from the collective knowledge and expertise of our thriving community.

Presentation highlights.

The first public speaking event I ever did I hid behind the podium.  Over 10 years later I avoid it like the plague, move around the class, make eye contact, ask students questions and don't be afraid to call on the ones that may be distracted. Bringing someone back into the lecture makes it morre of a discussion and helps the entire class with the activity.

Communication

I have learned how I have failed at effective communication in the past, and plan to bring multiple forms of communication in the workplace. At least two forms of contact seem to be the most effective.

Effective Communication

It has been my experience when working with a large number of people two forms of communicaiton are needed.  Oral only or written only do not catch every persons attention.  If both forms are used the large majority of people remember the assignment / task at hand.  

Communication

I learned that improper communication can be costly to a company. The method of communication needs to be chosed based on who the information is being delivered to. Depending on hoow a certain person, or group of people, receive information and respond to information

Effectiveness

I learned various forms of effective communication, and also how to ask for feedback in order to obtain a students missing needs. 

Effective communication in a team

Running a team requires effective communication. Although it might be time consuming, it is extremely important for the supervisor to individualize their communication style to those on the team. Different personalities, styles of learning, and communication exist within a team, so by being cognizant of that, supervisors can then customize their style of communication that will be effective for the team members.

Listening

Listening is a voluntary process.

Writing in emails

Email etiquette is essential in communicating for results. 

Applying

I plan to apply my learning in my everyday life as I engage with faculty and others to help us reach our goals. 

Criteria for Methods of Communication

I learned several new criteria for selecting the various methods of communication.  

Communication...

Communication is obviously a two-way street that requires understanding your audience. Best appreoaches (technology) must consider capabilities of your audience or subordinates.

Nonverbal Communication

I have learned that, a greater portion of all human communication is nonverbal.

Communication is key

Effective communitcation is not a "one size fits all." We must tailor our methods of communication with each piece of information that we are trying to convey.

How to write effectively

This module was useful in helping to know what I should be doing when I am communicating in writing with others. I will use what I learned today to help with my future written communicaitons.
