nearly identical sections). Pick three topics, concepts, or theories from anywhere in the introductory
material and talk about the connection between the basic principle and what your understanding of
Virtuality is all about from the readings (and Discussion 1) for the week.

“Analyzing Interpersonal Communication in [Film/TV Show Title]”

Seeing Communication in Movies Assignment Step 1 The first step in this assignment is selecting a movie/film to analyze based on concepts in Interpersonal Communication. One season of a television show will also work for this assignment but going beyond one season is likely too much. Step 2 Once you have your film selected, you should answer the following questions based on that movie. Be sure to completely answer each part of the question. You should explain this well enough that your professor does not even need to watch the film to understand the concepts you are referencing. If you use terms from the text or material from class- and you should! CITE IT You will be using some of the information from this project to complete Speech and Outline Start your Paper with a one-paragraph general overview of the film, then respond to the following: Be sure to list the answers below the questions, so do NOT write this in essay format. 1. You have analyzed the characteristics of a competent communicator. Which character in this film do you think is the most competent communicator based on the traits we discussed? Why? 2. As you learned in this course, culture and gender have a big impact on the way we communicate. What are some of the culture and gender differences that effect interpersonal communication in the movie? Provide at least two for culture and two for gender. 3. Perception influences every aspect of communication. Explain how the main character’s perceptions likely affect their relationships. Then explain how your own perception influences the way you view the movie. 4. As we know, language is a big factor in interpersonal communication. Give at least 3 examples of language use in the movie between some of the main characters. 5. While language is important, we also know that nonverbal communication plays a major role in how we communicate (content vs. relational message). There are likely many facial expressions in the movie, among other nonverbal expressions, that say a lot more than words. Give at least 3 examples of nonverbal communication in the movie. 6. How does listening impact the way the characters in the movie relate to one another? Give at least two examples. 7. How do the main characters portray their emotions? Give three examples. 8. As we know, conflict and power are a big part of our interaction with others. Give two examples of how conflict and/or power were displayed in the movie. 9. The communication climate is another important aspect to consider when analyzing a communication situation. Explain one example of a supportive communication climate in the film. Also describe one example of a defensive climate. 10. Your choice – select any other aspect of Communication that has not already been discussed in the questions above and explain how it relates to the movie. For example, you could talk about some of the later chapters in the text. How is social exchange theory evident in the film? In what ways are Knapp’s Relational Stages portrayed? Pick out anything else you would like to (that hasn’t been mentioned already in the first nine questions). Submission Expectations: Use standard APA formatting for this assignment (12-point, double-spaced, Times New Roman type, one-inch margins, cover page, etc.) There is no required length, but responses need to answer the questions fully, including details/examples from the movie/film and demonstrate that you understand the material covered overall in class and can relate it to the film. NO abstract is required. Be sure to list the answers below the questions, so do NOT write this in essay format.

Comparing Pelvis and Bipedal Features of Genus Homo Skeletons “Comparing Bipedal Walking in Neanderthals and Homo erectus” Bipedal Walking: A Comparison between Neanderthals and Homo erectus

Goal
Use the modules and review resources to complete the chart on this handout comparing pelvis and other bipedal features of the chimp, human, Australopithecus afarensis, Homo erectus, and Homo neanderthalensis skeletons. Refer to the module page for images needed for this assignment.
Instructions
Refer to the module page Pelvis Images for the Assignment (Genus Homo) for images and 3-D rotations of the four pelvises you need to describe and compare. You can also look at Comparing and Measuring the Pelvis (Genus Homo) Open the worksheet An111 Comparing Genus Homo pelvis shape-1.docx Download An111 Comparing Genus Homo pelvis shape-1.docx and fill out the table to compare features across the species. The rows will ask for one of the following types of answers.
Simple descriptions and comparisons are fine for our purposes, Review:
Present or absent: When a feature is either there or not, you can use a + for present and – for absent.
For example, “presence of sagittal crest” can be answered + or –.
Describe: When you are asked to describe a feature, do so with a few words or short phrase.
For example, “shape of dental arcade” can be answered “U-shaped.”
Compare: When you are asked to compare, you need to ask “compare to what?”
For Example: If there are three skulls being compared, you might say X and Y are smaller than Z. Or X is smaller than Y and Y is larger than Z.
Measure: Use the measurements you collected Measurements gathered from teaching materials at LAVC. All measurements are in millimeters

“Crafting Your Public Persona: The Power of Performance” “The Impact of Football in Our Community”

Read the following assignment two or three times before beginning to craft your essay. Then, jot down your ideas. Order them so that they flow from one point to another in a way that will make it easy for the reader to follow. Next, flesh out the ideas with exact wordings that will make them vivid and exciting for the reader. Write out the first draft. Read it aloud.
Have you said what you wanted to say as honestly, clearly and dynamically as you can? Make changes! Then, read your essay for grammatical usage. Now you are ready to type out the final copy.
Assignment Grounding
All of us consciously and unconsciously act out who we are at any given moment. We perform our identities for others to see, and are usually responded to according to those “performances.” In some ways, we are all “actors” in our lives. We signal who we are through our bodies (the way we walk, stand, sit), our attitudes, our vocabularies, our voices, our clothes, etc. At times we are relatively unconscious of our presentation of self; at other times, we can be excruciatingly conscious. There are times when we’ve been in situations where we are painfully conscious of our portrayal of who we are. Think of those times you’ve applied for a job–or have asked for money from a parent–or what about the first meeting with someone special? At times like these, we are often acutely aware of the role we are playing and the “mask” we are wearing for that role. The identity we are attempting to create unconsciously or consciously can be called our persona. Persona simply refers to the kind of person an individual is perceived as being at a given moment. It is based on all verbal and nonverbal behaviors as they are seen by someone else.
As adolescence teaches many individuals, it is possible to act out a variety of identities: one for the parent, one for the clergy, one for the best friend, one for the boy/girl friend, one for the ex- boy/girl friend… and on it goes at that age. You may remember yourself and the variety of “yous” you acted out in a number of different performances with different “audiences.” When we are acting our behaviors so that others looking and listening to us see us as having a certain sort of persona, we call that embodiment. In other words, to be successful with the presentation of self, we must embody those characteristics associated with the desired outcome.
First significant question of the essay: What persona (identity) do you wish to create as a public speaker?
Second significant question of the essay: What behaviors will you need to perform in order to be recognized as the person you want to be seen as for this class?
How the essay fits into a “speech class:”
This essay is a chance for you to explore how you want to be perceived in this course during this term. It offers you the opportunity to think about and select the kind of person you want to be seen as a public speaker. It asks you to consider some rather serious questions: What kind of public identity do you want to project throughout the semester? What elements of character and personality do you want to be recognized as having? What kind of public person do you want to be known as? In terms of a public speaker, how do you want to be seen? Because you will be making a number of public presentations before the class throughout the term, you have an opportunity to create and perform an identity. We will come to know you through your presentations in here. In other words, you have the chance to present (or perform) yourself as you wish us to see you.
SUMMARY:
I. The essay is to be 2-4 pages in length. It must be typewritten and double-spaced.
II. The essay has two major questions:
A. What persona do you wish to create as a public speaker throughout the term?
B. What behaviors will you embody and perform to achieve that persona?
III. The essay should be a thoughtful, honest and well written piece which engages your reader.
