Interpersonal Communications Mid Semester Paper

In 4-5 pages, typed double space, you are to report on a significant communication issue, either from the text, outside readings, class discussions or independent research. Your task is to critically analyze the issue – and the latest research findings and discuss the application of these findings. The last page of your paper should include a complete bibliography with works cited using APA format. If you are not familiar with APA format, refer to the APA Style Guide posted in Brightspace. You will need a minimum of five sources cited APA style. Some topics you may want to consider: Good and Bad Communication, Communication Disorders, The Effects of Social Media on Communication, Verbal and Non Verbal Communication, Emotions, Erotic Intelligence, Emotional Intelligence, Gender Differences in Communication, Paralanguage, Symbolism, Cultural Differences, Interpersonal Communication Conflicts, Marriage Styles, The Case for Empathy (or not), Communication Blind Spots or any other area you feel is relevant. Please note, this is certainly not an exhaustive list. Far from it.

Reminder: I dont want you to simply regurgitate whats in the text; rather, your task is to critically analyze the material and provide your own insights and observations based on the latest research in the field as well as your own experiences
