Great knowledge!

I think communication can be the single most important thing in the workplace and classroom. This tutorial had great information on different types of communication that I haven't considered before. I will think of this tutorial often to ensure I am using the most effective form of communication.

Collaborating

Collaboration is always effective

Communicating for Results

The tutorial was great, and what i plan to do is use the tools most effective to that individual. I also learned when teaching a group use different types of muli-media because everyone learns differently.

Difficult Interactions

Conflict in the workplace is a natural occurance of interacting with one another and cost of resolving conflict is relative to the cost of leaving clnflicts unresolved.  Although it is best to determine whether it is a long or short term working relationship when deciding whether or not to addresses.  In all instances in conflict resolution it is always best to work on your listening skills to be objective, empathic and open to trying to understand the other person's feelings and underlying issues that may change the dynamics of each situation.

Success of the presentation is largely determined by the degree of interaction between the Presenter and the Audience.

Presentations

Presentations require some form of communication. Thus making it an imperative tool. Being able to communicate to the audice effectivly is determined how well the person can obtain and reflect the information properly. 

Communication

Communication is a vital tool that needs to be implemented in all settings of the workforce. Being a nurse that I am, communication is vital to properly taking care of patients.

Communication

I will communcate the best way with each individual situation and group.  Either by memo or face to face depending on the situation.  Each person accepts information differently also and that needs to be taken into consideration when communicating with people

Communication

What I have learned is that both methods of communication are vital to effective communication. As educators we need to pay attention to both verbal and non-verbal forms.

I've learned

I've learned about in the communicating beyond words are:

 

Appearance & Dress

By a man's finger-nails, by his coat-sleeve, by his boots, by his trouser-knees, by the callosities of his forefinger and thumb, by his expression, by his shirt-cuffs - by each of these things a man's calling is plainly revealed. That all united should fail to enlighten the competent inquirer in any case is almost inconceivable. - Sherlock Holmes

The exact role of appearance and dress in the total system of nonverbal communication is still unknown. We do know, however, that appearance and dress are part of the… >>>

MA Program Director/Instructor

I believe we must use all means possible to convey the information being taught, to a wide variety of mixed learning types.

Class policies

Presentation

it all boils down to confidence and being able to relay your points and message to the audience.

Be very aware of non-verbal cues

I conduct mock interview with students and alumni interviews for a university and in both instances I can get a very good feel for a person's character based on their body language.

Feedback

Feedback is very important in the medical field. At my place of employment, we refer to feedback in three steps (1) Briefing-before starting your assigment, it is important to know what is going on with the daily plan. This is a detailed patient planning concept which involves the whole team. (2) Huddles-which can occur anytime during the shift. Making sure things are going according to plan or if any problems or changes are needed. (3) debriefing- how did to shift go. Were their any problems and what did we learn or do to corect the problems. This is done every day.
