This comprehensive tutorial includes week 1-5:
Week 1:
Complete Assignment 1.1 from Ch. 1 of Communicating in the Workplace.
Choose two misunderstandings you experienced and fill out the chart for these.
Respond to questions 1 and 2 shown under the chart for each example of a misunderstanding. In your response, include the following:

• Cite a meaningful misunderstanding rather than a general or less material misunderstanding.
• Use business- or work-related examples rather than personal ones.
• Identify the roles of the sender and receiver, such as manager, peer, subordinate, client, vendor, and so forth.

Week 2:
Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper describing demonstrative communication. Demonstrative communication includes nonverbal and unwritten communication and involves such things as facial expressions, tone of voice, body language, and so forth. Include the following elements in your paper:

• Provide examples showing how demonstrative communication can be effective and ineffective, positive and negative, for the sender and receiver.

• Explain how demonstrative communication involves listening and responding.

Week 3:
Locate an article on a controversial subject where the author makes an argument you do not agree with.

Week 4:
Resource: “Over 30 Workers Trapped After Chilean Copper Mine Collapse” article found in the Electronic Reserve Readings.
Research additional articles and information about the Chilean mine collapse.
Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper using this and other articles as a resource. Because communications must be designed with the audience in mind, answer the following questions:

• What are some considerations to remember given the different roles and people in the audience?
• What would be the potential needs of the families of the miners in receiving a message about this incident?
• What would be the potential needs of the company’s employees when receiving a message about this incident?
• What actions must you take before and after the message is delivered to ensure that it was received as intended?

After answering the above questions, draft and include TWO communications from the mining company announcing the accident, using what you have learned about the audience and effective messages. One communication should be directed to the families of the trapped miners and the other as an internal news release to employees in the company. For both, identify the most appropriate channel—face-to-face, e-mail, video, memo, and so on. This part should appear at the end of the 700-1050 word paper, but prior to the Reference Page.
