2415 Group Communication What Happened in Class

3:23 Saturday afternoon

I have just uploaded the three mp3s to the Blackboard site. I would appreciate if a student would try downloading them. Someone let me know via an email to my Comcast address.

The mp3s should appear right on the home page as soon as you open the program.

Added at 3:48:

I uploaded the Word doc for the questions (handed out in class) in case anyone wants to type their answers in directly under the questions.

Friday, Mar. 6

A new assignment was issued today. Designed to cover the readings on Chapters 3, 4, and 5, it consists of listening to some mp3s and answering questions that were handed out in class.

We went over the assignment and the instructor showed a Powerpoint illustrating key points of the assignment.

Note to students: I was able to get things cleared up with the IT Dept. and I will be posting info here later--most likely tomorrow. For now, however, try to get into your Blackboard account using your e-mail name and password. Click "WebCT" on the lower part of the Kean home page to get there or type in "distance education" on the search engine.


Monday, Mar. 2

We watched a DVD on culture and its effect on nonverbal communication.

The instructor made copies of the material on group assessment and passed it out to students who needed it.

The Sullenberger questions were returned with the grade. We went over a few issues on writing, such as direct quotes, word choice, and other issues.

Students should bring their APA style guide to the next class.

Next class:

We will go over the assignment that will require students to have read chapters 3, 4, and 5.
Class exercise for Chapter 6.

I need a student to volunteer to host a few mp3s at their MySpace account. If you can do this, please e-mail me at the comcast address on the syllabus. I will send you the mp3s.

This is needed for our reading assignment covering the last few chapters. We talked about this in class but didn't finish our discussion.
