Kim Shipmon Case Study Online Communication

With the advent of computers and related technologies of communication, the nature of communication has changed drastically. There are some positive highlights to this change as well as negative highlights to this change based on my experience. In my younger years, the only form of communication was one on one communication or writing through snail mail. However, this is not the case today. Today, I make use of emails, social media, and other chatting forums to communicate both professionally and personally to family, friends, and relatives. I have found this change to have its advantages as well as disadvantages. In this paper, I will discuss how computer-mediated communication has aided my communication as well as how it compares to the type of communication that was available during my younger years. In addition, I will give a comparison between computer-mediated communication and person-to-person communication.

Employers look for people with good interpersonal skills because it will mean they will be able to work with others and be able to communicate with customers or clients.

All four hypotheses were supported. They found that people self disclose at a higher rate in computer-mediated communication than during a face-to-face interaction. They found that their participants self disclosed more after the confederates made intimate disclosures than when they made non-intimate disclosures no matter what topic they were discussing. The people speaking with the confederates via internet found the intimate disclosures from them to be more intimate than people who were speaking with a confederate face-to-face.

The internet has become one of the main sources for people to make romantic connections with others within their own society and all over the world. There are so many social media platforms available to society, like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and the countless dating websites, from match.com, Tinder, and even websites created specifically for certain groups of people, like religious groups or people of a certain race. Why does our society have so many online dating resources? Do people feel more confident online?

The only way to truly learn is to make mistakes. After reviewing and reading the elements and strategies of communication it was very clear, the only way to get better is to break through the barriers that typically create misunderstanding in communication. The six barriers we focused on were cliche, jargon, slang, sexist/racist language, euphemisms, and doublespeak. Although these are called barriers, I like to think of them as a lesson learned.

Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D., is a master storyteller and a great observer of life; Remen said, “The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention.... A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.” Communication, gender and culture influence one another in many ways (Wood, 2008). People communicate either verbally, or non-verbally. Verbal and non-verbal communication occurs simultaneously and work together, complementing or contradicting each other (Harris & Sherblom 2008). This paper will focus on how people communicate, both verbal and non-verbal

The term ‘communication’ originates from the Latin word communicare, which means to share or impart. Communication is a crucial part of everyone’s daily routine. Communication is a process that engages at least two peoples: sender and receiver and continuously takes places in every field including education field, medical field, tourism field, business field and so forth. Communication plays an important role in establishing ideas, needs and concerns later to start a common understanding among sender and receiver. Few studies are done on the topic of communication and prove that almost 70 to 80% of every individual’s time is spent on communication. According to MTD Training (2010), communication is defined as an “art and process of creating and sharing ideas” (p. 9). There are four stages to ensure communication process flows effectively: sender expresses the message, message transmits through the medium, the recipient interprets the message and recipient returns feedback to the sender (Finkelstein, 2002) (see Figure 1 in Appendix).
