Greetings, Interpersonal Communication Team!
Overview And Instructions
Just like countries have different languages, our nonverbal communication may not equate to the same meaning. For example, the thumbs up gesture means “good job!” in the United States. But in the Middle East, it’s the equivalent of an insult! That’s a significant difference in meaning that could lead to huge misunderstandings.
You should spend approximately 4 hours on this assignment.
Instructions
Be sure you have completed your readings and explored all the materials, including videos, in the Exploration page accessible within the “Read/View” topic of Module 4 Content.
Research the culture of another country with which you are either familiar or unfamiliar.
In your research, focus on nonverbal communication. Specifically, consider gestures, facial expressions, and proximity (i.e., how close people stand to each other). In addition, research whether nonverbal communication is different between genders in the culture you have selected.
Include an answer the following questions in your Main post:
In your own words, define language and nonverbal communication. How is the nonverbal communication of the culture you researched different from nonverbal communication in your home country’s culture? How is nonverbal communication similar or the same?
What are the differences in nonverbal communication between genders in the culture you researched? If there are no differences, why do you feel nonverbal communication between genders is the same?
What was the most surprising difference between your home country’s culture and the country’s culture you chose to fro this Discussion assignment?
Write a sidebar (3-4 sentences) that could be highlighted on the Travel Channel’s website for readers traveling to the country you researched on how they should greet a stranger from the other culture. Include at least three tips. Consider questions such as, should they bow? Wave? Offer their hand to shake? Would they greet a man differently than a woman? How close should they stand? Should they smile?
Be sure you keep track of the resources you used to answer the aforementioned questions as well as to create a sidebar.
Incorporate information from resources added to the end of the Main post by adding three (3) direct quotes or paraphrased quotations followed by in-text citations. In added, three (3) properly formatted (MLA Style or APA Style) resources must be added to the end of your reply (Main Post) to the Discussion instructions.
Need help with APA or MLA? Please refer to the CCCOnline APA Citation Toolkit or the CCCOnline MLA Citation Toolkit.
After submitting a Main post (reply to the Discussion Assignment Instructions), select, read and submit positive, constructive, and supportive comments in reply to the Main post submitted by two classmates whose culture they wrote about may or may not be different from the culture you wrote about (i.e. China vs. United States). In your reply to the Main post submitted by two classmates, discuss how the culture you researched is different from the culture they researched.
