Описание: What is Violent Communication? If "violent" means acting in ways that result in hurt or harm, then much of how we communicate--judging others, bullying, having racial bias, blaming, finger pointing, discriminating, speaking without listening, criticizing others or ourselves, name-calling, reacting when angry, using political rhetoric, being defensive or judging who's "good/bad" or what's "right/wrong" with people--could indeed be called "violent communication." What is Nonviolent Communication?Nonviolent Communication is the integration of four things: - Consciousness: a set of principles that support living a life of compassion, collaboration, courage, and authenticity
- Language: understanding how words contribute to connection or distance
- Communication: knowing how to ask for what we want, how to hear others even in disagreement, and how to move toward solutions that work for all
- Means of influence: sharing "power with others" rather than using "power over others" Nonviolent Communication serves our desire to do three things: - Increase our ability to live with choice, meaning, and connection
- Connect empathically with self and others to have more satisfying relationships
- Sharing of resources so everyone is able to benefit

Описание: What does online community look like in the age of social networking? How do participatory culture platforms reflect both their designers’ intentions and the desires of their users? In this incisive and timely work, Adrienne L. Massanari discusses how culture is created and challenged on Reddit.com, the self-proclaimed «front page of the internet». Reddit enables the sharing of original and reposted content from around the web, and provides a platform for like-minded individuals to commune around topics of interest – everything from the joys of drinking beer in a shower (/r/showerbeer) to celebrating the pleasures of tidy penmanship (/r/penmanshipporn). Massanari’s ethnographic work provides a detailed examination of the contradictions that shape Reddit’s culture and how they reflect its role as an epicenter of geek culture. The book explores the ways in which community on Reddit is formed and solidified through play and humor, and the complex ways in which Redditors come together, which demonstrate a deep capacity for altruism and charitable giving, but can easily lapse into mob action. It also explores the community’s troubling gender and racial politics and how some Redditors are carving out their own space on the site to fight back.
A Practical Introduction to Communication for Community College and Beyond provides community college students with a highly relatable and applied exploration of communication. Students gain a solid understanding of the process of communication and how to apply it to everyday situations.
This book is broken into three sections. Section 1 discusses the process of communication, including tools that influence behavior, how to become a better listener, and different types of non-verbal practices. Section 2 dives into relationships and intercultural communication. It addresses Uncertainty Reduction Theory and the Moken People, who have, historically, had limited contact with the outside world, but now, with increasing accessibility to communication, must navigate the line between traditional and contemporary modes of communication. Section 3 delves into how professional and public communication go hand-in-hand, including tips for networking, understanding and working in groups, and preparing presentations. The text includes skills assessments, personal accounts, and best practices to help students understand and apply various communication strategies.
The second edition features real-life scenarios that demonstrate the power and potential consequences of social media and additional coverage on difficult conversations, face-to-face communication, and practical application strategies within each chapter.
A Practical Introduction to Communication for Community College and Beyond is ideal for undergraduate courses in human communication, public relations, and introduction to communication studies.

Описание: This book surveys the history of basic writing scholarship, suggesting that we cannot adequately theorize the situations of basic writers unless we examine how they construct their own conceptions of their identities, their constructions of their relationships to social forces, and their representations of their relationships to written work. Using a cross-disciplinary analytic model, Gray-Rosendale offers a detailed examination of the oral conversations that take place within one basic writing peer revision group. She explains the ways in which the students' own conversational structures impact and shape their written products. Gray-Rosendale then draws out the potentials of her work for basic writing administrators, curricula builders, and teachers.
