We are a community of learners learning from the text, the professor, and each other. Be here to celebrate your communication, learning, and success. The concepts discussed in the text are good background for the interpersonal concepts and activities designed into this interpersonal communication class. Your experience and learning will be richer if you read the assigned readings prior to coming to class. Complete all readings, minute papers, self tests, and activities prior to or during the class for which they are assigned.
Lessons build on each other.
Make sure you have a solid foundation for you learning by completing work as it is assigned. Students will be on learning teams in this class. All of your required team experiences will occur during class time. This is an important interpersonal communication lesson. Each class provides us with opportunities to learn important lessons.
