Homework: Interpersonal Communication Plan
Overview
The purpose of the Interpersonal Communication Plan Homework is to demonstrate course-related knowledge; commitment to establish and maintain healthy, healing, and helping relationships; and ability to communicate effectively, both verbally and nonverbally. You will develop a strategic plan and produce a 9-10 minute video recording of yourself presenting your plan. You will also create a PowerPoint presentation that highlights your main points and sources.
Instructions
You must incorporate all the required course texts and two scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles published in the last ten years in a meaningful, effective, and significant way throughout your presentation. Attribution to sources-i.e. author and year-must be made by orally and in-text. Evidence of self-reflection, critical thinking, understanding of course-related concepts, and synthesis of the course literature is expected. Each main point must be sufficiently developed given the time limit. The main points must be logically connected with effective transitions and a progression of ideas throughout. All content must be applied and personalized. The video will be uploaded to YouTube and the PowerPoint presentation will be submitted to along with a link to the video. Your presentation must include the following sections/main points:
I. Introduction:
Introduce your strategic communication plan in an engaging and interesting way. Mention your name and the date of your recording (important!).Define interpersonal communication in a way that orients your audience (i.e. your instructor) toward the main focus of your plan. Give a brief preview of the presentation`s key points.
II. Behavioral blend and background:
Briefly describe your behavioral blend as identified in your Uniquely You profile, emphasizing how it influences the way you communicate and relate to others. Also, share about how your background and identity influences your communication patterns, both positively and negatively. This section provides a backdrop for understanding you as a communicator and the challenges and opportunities you have faced.
III. Communication barriers:
Disclose and discuss the most significant interpersonal communication barriers and issues that you have discovered throughout this course. Define, explain, and exemplify how these currently hinder you and negatively impact your relationships.
IV. Goal and strategies:
Articulate a goal that you intend to reach by implementing this plan. This goal should be succinctly formulated as a single phrase and must not be overly broad (e.g. "become a counselor" or too vague (e.g. "enhance my communication"). Share why this goal is important within the context of your life and/or career. Then disclose strategies that will allow you to reach this goal and remove the barriers discussed previously. For example, if your goal involves becoming a more empathic communicator at your workplace, developing active listening and reflecting skills might be appropriate strategies. If your goal is to impactfully mentor youth in your community, using appropriate levels of assertiveness, genuineness, and self-disclosure might be important skills to master.
V. Implementation:
Formulate specific action steps for applying the strategies described in the previous section. In doing so, describe specific concepts, principles, models, and/or techniques that have provided you with insight and understanding throughout this course. Actions may include techniques you will practice, ideas you will continually reflect on, things you will do differently, etc. Explain how implementing your plan will make your goal a reality. Address also how you will evaluate your progress and hold yourself accountable.
VI. Conclusion:
Briefly review the main points of your strategic interpersonal communication plan and end with a memorable closing statement or quote.
