We use email everyday and in a work situation, we need to remember to be more formal with what we write. We learned how to create signature, set up a distribution list, how to set out of office replies and also the junk mail settings

Here is a list of advantages and disadvantages that we considered

Words, Music and Dance

Words, music and dance are these aspects of how we communicate.

The music is the tone language, speed up and accent.

The Dance is the body language that we use which also includes the non-verbal messages and facial expressions that we use.

If any of these elements are missing, then two individuals have to work harder with what is left.

For example, if we were to have a conversation without words, then we should have to communicate by exaggerating our body language by using hand gestures.

In class today looked at how the way we communicate by our content (words), tone (music), and body language (dance) is influenced by our attitudes to others.

We can come across as agressive, passive or assertive and we give clues away.

Here is the worksheet we completed.
