In an approximately 500-750 word essay: Begin with an introduction that briefly describes the verbal and nonverbal communication norms that you violated, the main themes in the body of your paper, and your overall thesis. The body of your writing assignment should explore in detail your experiment with verbal and nonverbal communication and reflect upon your learning in this module. Explain how others responded to you verbally and nonverbally. Explain how you felt while violating norms for verbal and nonverbal communication. Explain how your experience illustrates at least one concept or guideline in Chapter 4 and one concept or guideline in Chapter 5. Apply specific course terminology correctly in your writing. Support your assertions with in-text citations of the textbook and other course material. In your essay, respond to the following questions as you reflect upon your learning in this module: How did my “experiment” with verbal and nonverbal communication help me understand the course material in this module? What am I learning about this module’s material, myself, and others? Of what value is this? How will I extend my learning to my interpersonal communication and relationships in the future? End with a concluding paragraph that summarizes the body of your writing assignment and reaffirms your thesis. Provide the reference(s) that correspond to your in-text citations on a new page at the end of your writing assignment.
