| Communication is a part of everyone and everything. We communicate with words -- spoken and written -- with pictures, like graphics, with numbers and any other type of visual stimuli. Throughout the past two terms we have come across these different types of communication in different forms. We have written reflections, asked questions, debated, and discussed. We have learned what it means to be human with the thought of language in mind, and used that to explore our beliefs even more. To be able to communicate, that is the biggest part of human life. |

| The Time management assignment is one of those assignments from fall term that fits into this goal very well. It shows how we can communicate with pictures and graphs as well as numbers at the same time. It also shows how we can interpret these pictures in the writing part of the assignment. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The online discussion that I chose to use as an example of communication is the week four discussion regarding chapter eight in Writing Analytically by David Rosenwasser and Jill Stephen. I chose this entry because of the basis of the topic. We had read a section of a book, about how to communicate, and communicated to each other about what we thought about it, and how it might come in useful when we write our own research papers. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Discovery, one of the best way to communicate. Discovery of one's own home, even better. The civic engagement project let us discover clubs and orginazitions that are apart of PSU, our home, our college. We talked to club members and searched their sites that are avaiable world wide. Communication isn't just about talking, its communicating with yourself in a new discovery. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Lights! Camara! Action! The three most famous words in flim making! The Film Analysis paper brought a whole new meaning to understanding communication. Discovering what the director wanted you to know with the use of lights, or sounds, or even the way the scene is set up. Each thing has a message, that the audience will take in, knowingly or not. Film analysis brought in a whole new look to finding hidden messages. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
