Chapter 7
Political rhetoric is always crucial to communicating ideology to the population of the United States of America. People align with the party or movement that they think symbolizes their beliefs. Though it does lead to societal change as much as many on the left would have hoped, basic progressive ideals are becoming mainstream. This has…
Chapter 6
It is tragic to see that so many forms of communication that I learned about as a communications major are disregarded by urban policy makers, and local governments. Communication research is meant to enhance our interactions with others. I would encourage all of my peers to try and take this approach when studying crime. Based…
Chapter 8
When I was reading about communication theory I found the section about Empirical Laws Paradigm to be the most applicable to everyday interaction. Empirical Laws Paradigm is the idea that there are universal laws that govern how we interact and communicate with each other. There are three characteristics of this theory; causation, prediction, and generalization.…
Chapter 8
In the age of communication we live in it is impossible for someone’s life to be uninfluenced by mass media. Mass media is the process in which media organizations produce and deliver their messages to the public with the intent of relaying information that can be understood by the audience. Popular forms of mass media…
Chapter 11
When reading about organizational communication I thought that it was very important to focus on the ways that organizational communication is disrupted.

The bourgeois will disrupt the communication in a community that begins to exist without…

Gender identity, rights, and conflict have all been a key discussion in political science conversations for as long as the concept of academic theory has existed. I think that gender communication needs to be a societal norm. It…
Chapter 12 and Sportswashing
Sport is the ultimate form of escapism. For the entirety of the game a fan forgets about their troubles outside of the stadium and watch the display of talent and resolve that the athletes put on. Sports are also one of the best forms of intercultural communication. There are members of every single culture and…
Chapter 9-Interpersoanl Communication
I found chapter nine to have more information that was applicable to my life. The sections on communication climate and the formations and decline of friendships were the most relatable to me. Social groups will sometimes put labels on certain people such as “negative” and “upbeat” making it seem as if the subject is this…
Chapter 3- Nonverbal Communication
Students at almost any university or college can enroll in courses that teach students how to improve their public speaking skills. Many high level academic institutions also offer debate teams, as a way for students to train their wits and argumentative skills in a competitive environment.
