Ashford 4: - Week 3 - Discussion 1

Not Communicating

During this week, select one hour   of the day when you are with other people and try not to communicate. During   this hour, try your best not to communicate verbally and to keep nonverbal communication   to a minimum. Take note of the opportunities for communication you passed up,   how it felt when you couldn’t communicate, and how others reacted toward you.   Once you get an initial reaction, if your behavior seems to be upsetting   those around you, give a brief explanation that you are conducting an   exercise for a communications class, and then go back to being   non-communicative. Share your experience and to discuss what you noticed   about your behavior and the behavior of others while you conducted this   exercise. Respond to at least two of your fellow students’ postings by Day 7.   (You must create one initial post and at least two responses, for a minimum   of three posts for this discussion.)
