The following Syllabus Acknowledgment submission is necessary for your first week Attendance! 25 points
Here is your first assignment for COMM 201.
Part 1 — Write your Course Acknowledgment statement acknowledging that you have read and understood the COMM 201 Syllabus in its entirety. (This is just a written statement that I read and acknowledging the syllabus.)
Part 2 — Then answer these four questions on the same document:
1. How can taking a communication class like this help you in your major or your career and with your relationships? (Just write about how it would help me in the business finance career field)
2. What are your thoughts about group work for this online communication class? Would you prefer to do all assignments individually? (My thoughts are that I would prefer to do all assignments individually because I work better on assignments individually)
3. Are you able to do live, synchronous, ZOOM sessions? If so, what days and times work best for you? (I could attend some ZOOM sessions but I work during the day so the evening hours would work best)
4. What are your reactions and reflections on the short TED Talk by Julia Dhar on “How to have constructive conversations”? (Click on the link below to view her talk or go to the next selection in this module.). Here is the link: https://www.ted.com/talks/julia_dhar_how_to_have_constructive_conversations#t-303324
I put some of my thoughts for each question in parentheses after the question that you can use when writing.
