Question:
How are different types
of communication; written, oral, visual, and electronic, used in a classroom?
Goal:
As a teacher, I will
need to aquire skills in a variety of different areas of communication. This
will help my students to be able to maximize their amount of learning. Each
type, written, oral, visual, and electronic are very important and a balance of
each will insure a successful classroom. There are many different types of
learners. In order to appeal to all the different types of students, I will
need to successfully use the different types. This is why I want to collect
research and make sense of how I can use this information to my benefit.
Process:
First, I will find 12 accurate online sources
that will create a solid foundation for what my paper will be focused one. Once
I have the 12 sources, I will try to find some library text sources and
possibly a first hand source from a teacher. After the paper is finished I will
need to go back and make sure I have included all sources and take out any
sources not used in the text.
Next I will outline a
paper and figure out how to have sections of the four communication styles and
connect them so that they flow together. Opening and conclusion paragraphs
should connect and set the tone for the paper and bring the paper together at
the end.
Finally I will write
the paper, making it 1,250 words and answer the greatest question; how is
communication used in your discipline?

helpful because it expands on what each type is and how I can use it.
**** This is all for online resources. Will interview Loa
Christensen to a teachers point of view in the FCS field. And will interview a
former teacher for what they use for communication in
