UCF Social Communication Climate Discussion

Thank about Gibbs supportive climate components as you watch Sally Kohn’s Ted Talk on “emotional correctness.”

Think about how Sally Kohn’s notion of “emotional correctness” is similar to communication climate. Which of Gibb’s supportive climate components are at work in her recommendations? Consider this observation by Kohn: “He’s listening—not because of what I said, but how I said it.” How might changing your words and tone affect how others listen to you? You do not need to answer every one of these questions in your response, but do consider them.

Next, on a slightly different topic, please watch Gary Turk’s Poem “Look Up” and think about how social media and your interaction with screens of all types effects the way in which you interact with the world.

Please choose some aspect of communication climate and relate it to emotional correctness or Gibbs supportive climate components and the way in which we create communication climates both in person and online.
