Effective communication is not just about speaking and listening. It is also about watching and feeling. Our body language and tone of voice actually communicate more strongly than the words we use. So, listening effectively involves tuning in closely to the other person’s body language and tone of voice as well as their words.

First, mindful listening is important in communication just hearing what someone says is not enough we need to listen to who were are communicating with and give them our full attention. “To listen well, we rely on our ears, minds, and hearts” (Wood, 2016, p. 163). I have a problem with selective listening and I have worked on this to become a better listener throughout class with my family.

Turkle makes a valid point; parents are connected to their children twenty four hours a day never giving children the opportunity to discovery how to be alone. Before instant technology was in the palm of our hands, parents had to trust their children could go the store and make it home safely without call them when they felt worried or scared. But why are parents scared and worried? Technology has transformed our society into knowledge right at the touch of a screen, we get to see all the bad story on the news anytime we want to look at them, which affects the way we parent our children and let them discovery their on rite of

As Sole describes in her book, Making Connections: Understanding Interpersonal Communication, ” Listening involves hearing, but it is much more than just the physiological act of your ears perceiving a sound and transmitting the auditory sensation to your brain. Listening is a complex psychological process that can be defined as the process of physically hearing, interpreting that sound, and understanding the significance of it. (Sole,K. 2011)

Having a kid these days are really hard; I have a baby sister her name is Jasmine, Jasmine is five years old now. When she was two years old, she knew how to use the I-pad and the laptop. Also now she always come from school and stay on the laptop and doesn’t care about anything else around her. Actually it is not her fault in the first place, it was my family and I’s fault because we didn’t have time for her when she was young, every one of us have their own thing to do. My sister is not the only one that has this problem, all the young age kids are like that and because they grow up with any technology in their hands, they think that it is their lives and they have nothing else to do. This problem can be solved by the parents

Talking and listening are essential life skills. The ability to talk in order to communicate and exchange ideas and information, to negotiate with others, to express feelings and emotions, allows human beings to function well in the world and to be full and active members of society. Communication, to be effective, requires the ability to listen, to understand and to make sense of what is heard. On the personal level, when we listen, we give attention to the other person in such a way as to allow them to feel heard, understood and therefore respected. In that way, listening is more than

Being distracted by your phone for a split second can not only change your life forever, but possibly someone else’s around you. Checking to see texts, answering calls or seeing the latest tweet has become more important than road safety. Society is forgetting how to communicate with each other without the use of technology. While sitting in a waiting room or standing in an elevator, take a look around you. In todays society, rather than talking to each other we are more inclined to use out cell phones to pass the time.

For example, Bronson and Merryman revealed that children are too distracted with technology like television and cellular phones. Since children were allowed to have personal cellular phones, the use of cell phones has been a distraction of their daily sleep and parents are not fully monitoring this behavior. For example, children know they need sleep, but they refuse to do so because they want to know what is happening on their social media apps like Facebook and Instagram. Television is also a sleep distraction due to most televisions being placed in the children’s bedrooms. Children claim that they are staying up by choice due to not being able to complete homework or study for exam due to after school activities, but children also reveal how much time they spend on their cell phones that contain many distractions to prevent them from focusing on their academic responsibilities. Parents should strongly monitor their children’s technology use. For example, the parents must lecture their children about time management and if the child continues to become distracted with technology, they can ban them from the child in order for him/her to complete homework on time and have longer hours of

Anyone who has children, or who is often interacting with children, will recognize that childhood is not the same or how they remembered. The popularity of technology and especially social media has changed what it means to be a child. The largest problem told by care givers of children is that they participate less in imaginative play. Modern technology means that their devotion is being demanded by more and more things, so they don’t have the inclination to play.

The first reaction of most people when they consider listening as a possible method for dealing with human beings is that listening cannot be sufficient in itself, Because it is passive, they feel, listening does not communicate anything to the speaker. Actually, nothing could be farther from the truth.

A child that is raised by an emotionally detached parent, or guardian, usually have problems relating with other people. The problem is common among children whose parents are always busy, implying that they are forced to spend most of their childhood with strangers. In such situations where a child spends most time with another person, there is no emotional bond between the parent and the child (Allen and Kerry 9). Most children usually find it hard to cope with the lack of an emotional connection and they often misinterpret most

The ability to listen well is an important tool for understanding others. Sadly, very few people know how to listen well. In fact, most people can think of only one or two good listeners in their lives. Listening is not simply agreeing - it is much more. Good listeners are able to better understand and respond to others, complete assignments accurately, settle disagreements before they escalate, and establish rapport with difficult people.

Listening is more complex, and it encourages one to analyze and think about an idea, rather than to simply accept it (or “hear” it). Hearing is a skill that is beneficial for every aspect of life. As long as we have our ability to hear, we will always perceive different sounds, music, and voices. Listening, however, is beneficial to us in specific instances. It is important for us to attain good listening skills in education, the work force, and in our relationships with others in order to succeed. Good listening in education will bring about confident participation in class discussions; good listening in the workplace will lead to cooperation and good teamwork among colleagues; good listening in relationships is healthy and positive, for it is important to hear what an individual has to say in order to know how they feel.

Listening is an important form of communication. Unfortunately, many people who do not know how to listen believe they can listen well. They often say "I have been doing this all of my life of course I can listen". Listening is not inherited, or a personality trait, it is a skill that must be worked on and practiced.

Listening is more than just hearing. The process of listening involves receiving and constructing meaning, and responding to verbal and/or nonverbal messages. In other words, listening is not always easy and being a good listener is all about developing listening skills. To receive messages appropriately we have to listen actively. Active listening can be broken down into three important skills; first of all you have to reflect the feelings that the person is communicating, secondly reflect the content that they are communicating and finally ask good, meaningful questions.
