Throughout this semester, we have learned so many different
concepts to help us grow in the communications world. I have learned many new
terms that have changed the way I view communications in general. Some of those
terms include the dialectics, the order in which we speak, how to listen, and
how to manage. I found the different dialectics to be interesting because it
really showed me different ways that communication in relationships can work. I
found that in different relationships that I have, I have different dialectics
for each one. I found the order in which we speak to be interesting because we
speak aloud on a daily basis and never puts this into perspective. Some of us
speak on the spot at all times with a spacial arrangement and others are topical.
These terms do not only apply to a given speech. And the last one I found to be
interesting was learning how to really listen to the other person. Effective
communication cannot occur when listening properly is not in play.
Out of all the concepts in the book I thought the one you chose was interesting. I also agree that I have learned a lot about communication. The dialectics takes a simple concept and explains it further. Communication is something we do everyday but the dialectics is able to break it down into segments and discuss how the important attributes of communication makes relationships work. When I recall this concept I find it interesting that communication has different levels and each level either leads to the success or failure to the next step. I couldn’t agree more with how each step is beneficial to any relationship.
ReplyDeleteThis semester has provided everyone with a bunch of different concepts to learn. It has helped us all learn more about communication. I think dialects are a strong concept that people should learn about. People do have different dialects for different types of relationships with multiple people. When learning about the different dialects in the book, it interesting to see how they play out in your life. Listening is another concept that is needed when communicating with others. Listening is what the receiver is doing when the sender is sending a message. People should have good listening skills to communicate with others in the way communication should be.
