Hot Zone Reflection After completing my Hot Zone Analysis, I saw several problem areas throughout my schedule. One of the more difficult Hot Zone areas I have is that both ENC 1101 and MATH 0022C have quizzes on mostly the same days. I also had scheduled two online finals on the same day and several quizzes the week before them. This schedule would mean that I would have very little time to review before each one. Another big Hot Zone was my commitment to my church and attending all services offered; this cut back on my time able to study throughout the week. The results of my communication plan helped me evaluate where my bigger barriers are and how I would fix them. I had two major barriers that I have to fix, one is that I wasn’t

Erik Erikson was heavily influenced by Freud but while Freud was an ID psychologist, Erikson was an ego psychologist. Erikson stressed that the development of the ego depended heavily on personal and social aspects. “According to Erikson, the ego develops as it successfully resolves crises that are distinctly social in nature. These involve establishing a sense of trust in others, developing a sense of identity in society, and helping the next generation prepare for the future” (McLeod, S. 1970). His theory focused on personality development through eight distinct stages. He believed that personality progressed in a stacking or pre-determined manner, this is referred to as the epigenetic principle. One must
It’s probably not even threat, in America that is. It has the potential to wipe off humans. I first learned of Ebola in in my last year of middle school from a short documentary. The little information gained since then has sufficed but after reading The Hot Zone by Richard Preston my perception on the Ebola virus grew. Not only does Preston tells the tale of an Ebola outbreak in America, but his writing keeps tension throughout the book.
Communication is a vital skill in all facets of life and all occupations. Before a person begins work, they first interview with the employer, where their communication skills are made apparent. These skills are vital to daily success in the workplace, whether they are used in direct communication or indirectly through the written word. It is crucial that the true meaning of what one person is trying to communicate to another is made perfectly clear the first time to ensure efficiency and success throughout all paths of life. There are also several situations for communication a person may experience. Communication situations can happen at any point in a person’s life, and it is imperative that a person is prepared for these situations when
Peterson provides two platforms of communication. The first platform is primarily focused on the engagement of dialogue in which parties are sending and receiving information. The second paradigm is an emotional response within the communication dialogue. Both platforms of communication promote the depth of an intimate relationship amongst the parties involved. Therefore, placing trust and shared values in an emotional context within the communication process widens the information process by making it an uncomplicated method.
I conclusion, I have learned that the communication skills I need to work on are really simple fixes that wont take much to correct on my part. I hope by addressing my issues of communication along with others it will become easier. I also noticed that when others use the “I” statement I am way less likely to use the “You” statement. I also learned that compassionate listening is almost second nature in most case for me. The other piece I learned from this section is that I am able to read body language better then most. I hear this from my wife all the time “how can you read me so well and I don’t have to say a word.” Its scary but my job has taught me to read every situation as it presents itself.
Brian Tracy once said, “Communication is a skill that you can learn. It 's like riding a bicycle or typing. If you 're willing to work at it, you can rapidly improve the quality of every part of your life.” Communication is defined as the process of acting on information. Communicating is a very essential component of everyday life. According to the text book, the average person spends between eighty and ninety percent of their “waking time” communicating (Beebe 2). Communication improves our relationships as well as our overall health. Without communication, the human species would end because it is such a necessity. There are a variety of forms of communication including interpersonal, mass, public, small group and intrapersonal
The purpose of this paper is not to teach you, or to show you, how interpersonal communication is essential to everyday life at home or work. But, I am going to do my best to at least show you how essential communication skills are in all areas of life by using me as the example. My plan is to focus on some of the elements of interpersonal communication that we have been touching on this semester. While reading our Interpersonal Communications Book, three goals kept being highlighted that I personally wanted to accomplish by the end of course. I’m sure that by now I have noticed that I keep referring to my topics as goals.
The future is bright and confusing all at the same time. Libraries are scrambling to deal with economic limitations and an ever-accelerating technologically driven world. Every decision made needs to be evaluated and weighted against the mission of the library. That mission will in some way focus on service to the community and providing access to information. As libraries advance, they will be required to do so in line with those ideals. In addition to maintaining these standards, libraries do not want to become irrelevant because they waited to see, how technology would change, instead of acting (Law 15). Action must be taken, but the decision is how and to what extent technology should change the methods and services of the library. A key part of the future of all libraries is the use of digital technology within the reference area.
...the answer. Now that I am aware there are specific things involved in interpersonal communication I will actively try to find ways to incorporate them in my daily life and in the long run help me accomplish my goals personally, academically, and professionally.

In this “Digital Age” that we currently live in, it becomes very easy for an individual to become infatuated with the amount of social media outlets available on the internet. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat all revolve around the idea of showcasing one’s personal life for the sake of receiving positive feedback or attention by peers and strangers from the outside world. An episode of the Netflix sci-fi anthology series, “Black Mirror,” decides to tackle this topic in a surreal yet imaginative way. The episode in particular, “Nosedive,” investigates a hypothetical future or alternate universe where social media profiles and star ratings have become the norm. The plot revolves around a young lady named Lacie, who
