The teacher will instruct the students to hold their hands up in front of them, and to touch flatly their partner’s hand. Keeping in mind their eyes are to remain closed and are supposed to use their hands to communicate throughout this entire activity, the teacher should instruct the students to say “hello” to their partner’s hands.

The teacher will allow students to form small groups of various sizes (two people to five) and give the students a small slip of paper with a situation on it. Situations might include being at a funeral, winning an athletic game, and a first date. The group will write a short skit using touch as a main feature based on the situation they are given. For example, a two person group with the funeral might have one person crying while the other person drapes their arms around the crying character or hugs him. After all the students have been given enough time to write and practice their skits, they will go up in front of the classroom and perform their skits.
The final activity will be demonstrating the subjective rules of nonverbal behavior that are governed by cultural and social rules. The teacher will instruct the students to imagine they are writing a guidebook for visitors from another culture. They will describe the rules that govern touching in several relationships (an adult and five year old, an adult and a twelve year old, two adults, an elderly adult and a young adult, two enemies, two good friends, parent and child, siblings, lovers, and a boss and an employee or a teacher and student).

  • English 102 Class Reflection

    English 102 so far has been interesting for an 8:30am class; I did not expect to be so awake for a class so early. Professor Denton makes the class attention grabbing, something few professors I have had, had been able to accomplish well or at all. However, I do not particularly like the portfolio grading style enforced by the English department; it leaves too much in the wind. Professor Denton removes the feeling of not knowing how well you are doing until the very end, by giving us suggestions for revisions and a letter grade to go along with the paper. This is extremely convenient, because it does not leave your paper or your grade up to speculation.

    When a friend says hi to you and wave his hand, would you think that you are being welcomed? Or, when a friend say goodbye without looking at you, would you think you are being neglected? Everyday, we interact with different people to exchange our ideas, and we share our thoughts through communication. However, people do not recognize that our communication is divided into nonverbal language and verbal language, and I am going to demonstrate the concept of kinesics and haptics from the nonverbal communication and the concept of slang and powerful and powerless language from the verbal communication through a television show “The Real O 'Neal, The Real Heartbreak”, which is about O’Neal’s family story in Valentine Day, and some other examples.

Examples of this are reflexes, such as opening their mouths when hungry. Also, crying and whole body movements to demonstrate feelings. Another way that is interesting in infant nonverbal communication is allowing infants to play with each other.

    The two key topics in class in the last weeks, for me. Two of the most relevant topics developed in the last weeks were: non-verbal communication and the barriers to communication. Everytime we communicate with another person or group of people, we have to take into account some factors other than what we are actually saying that can affect how the message is going to be received: body language, tone, intonation, facial expressions, and others; this is what we understand for non-verbal communication. As we saw in class “55% of communication is body language, 38% is the tone of voice, and 7% is the actual words spoken.”
