Glass in the Class Season 2 Episode 2: The importance of nonverbal communication in a computer-mediated world

Here's the rundown: 

My classroom for 30 minutes with my students.
3 perspectives: Google Glass, The computer camera, and the camera on my guest.
Discussing how communication and changing technology has affected the life/work of my guest.

So who's my guest speaking about nonverbal communication you ask?!

If you don't already know him then you haven't been in Plus long and you certainly haven't attempted anything with Google Hangouts. My guest is none other than The Hangout Helper +Ronnie Bincer! Ronnie's entire venture hinges on our desire to further incorporate nonverbal communication into this computer-mediated world so I'm thrilled to have a discussion with him as to why it's so important for both individuals and businesses.

Nonverbal communication includes any unwritten or unspoken message considered meaningful by the receiver. That's why in any sort of face-to-face situation we say you can't not communicate and that tends to be people trust nonverbal communication more than they trust verbal communication.

So how are we building trust online?

Well maybe Ronnie has an answer ;)

As always I'd also like to thank +John Ellis for running my cameras for me.
