2. Presentations/Papers
Group Presentation
Students will work in small groups to present a description and analysis
of an actual communication scenario from a group member’s
professional experience. Group members will share recommendations
for the organization’s next steps based on course discussions. Sufficient
time to prepare for the presentation will be given during two class
periods. (Students are expected to work together on campus to
complete the project so they are able to compare the experience to the
online group discussions at the end of the course.) Each group will be
required to submit support materials for their presentation (PowerPoint,
Prezi, handouts, etc.) as well as facilitate a question and answer session
with the instructor and other students.
Group Communication Reflection Paper
After each student completes the group project and residential session
on the topic of group communication, the will submit a reflection paper
discussing what they learned from their reading, class discussions,
observing other group interactions and their own experiences as an
integral part of a group. The paper must be between 2,000-3,000 words
and should contain specific examples supporting reflections.
