MODULE 1 DISCUSSION You must thoughtfully answer the following question in your original post: Discuss how the intercultural communication began and evolved historically as a field of study. Also, discuss how the work of E.T. Hall at the Foreign Service Institute left a lasting impact on the field of intercultural communication. Use the textbook, the Rogers and Steinfatt (1999), and Kim’s (2001) article to answer.   Then you must thoughtfully answer one of the following questions in your original post: (Please give the number to the question you are answering in the subject line of your post.) 1. Think of your most likely career choice. Describe a situation in which effective intercultural communication would be useful. Be sure to apply textbook ideas in your answer. For example, chapter 1 defines intercultural communication and culture. It explains how culture is transmitted through globalization and immigration, the presence of a dominant culture and co-cultures, and the dynamic, symbolic, and contextual nature of intercultural communication. How will these impact your career? 2. “It’s a small world” is more than just a cliché these days. What are some of the factors that have caused an increase in the interaction between different cultures? Cite the textbook.  3. Use an internet search engine and read a few articles about globalization. What is it? Does globalization mean we need to study intercultural communication? What are the communication implications of the “global village” or the “global economy?” (Remember to cite the internet article(s) you use to write your post.) 4. Compare and contrast international and domestic intercultural contact. How do the terms “dominant culture” and “co-culture” fit into the types of symbols and messages that are sent and received in international and domestic intercultural contact? How do “individual uniqueness,” “stereotyping,” and “objectivity” fit into the types of symbols and messages that are sent and received in international and domestic intercultural contact? Cite the textbook. 5. What is your definition of effective communication? How does your definition of effective communication relate to each of the functions of communication (gathering information, fulfilling interpersonal needs, establishing identity, influencing others, etc.) addressed in chapter 1? What role do dynamism, symbolism, and context play in the effective communication process? Can a person ever truly understand another person fully? 6. Explain the concept that communication is culture and culture is communication. Another way to think about this question is similar to the old chicken and egg question: which came first, the chicken or the egg? Which came first, communication or culture? And can one exist without the other? Cite the textbook. 7. Discuss each of five main themes of intercultural communication study. If you want to study intercultural communication area in the future, which theme (area) would be your interesting field of the study?Why? Discuss it. You must thoughtfully respond at least twice to your classmates or to me. Your response posts must add to the discussion.   To achieve a superior grade for discussions, each of the following components must be satisfied: The content of your original post must connect to unit theories and cite the textbook You must cite one additional source in addition to the textbook All posting and responding deadlines and minimum requirements must be met Please read the “grading rubric” so you know the specific criteria that will determine your grade

The purpose of this paper is to link theoretical/scholarly material about behavior change and communication to a “real world” campaign. You will select a campaign of interest to you that used a media channel to reach it’s intended audience. This could include traditional news outlets, the blogosphere, various social media outlets, or some combination of these channels. You will then critique and analyze the case from the theoretical frameworks and perspectives in the scholarly literature you have chosen. Your case study should conclude with a summary of lessons learned from the case and/or any recommendations you have for how the individuals and/or organizations involved could have used behavior change theory more strategically to realize more favorable outcomes. The paper should have a minimum of 10 pages and a maximum of 15 pages of double-spaced text, not including the cover page or references (60 points). You can find an example paper here . While this is an excellent example of the methodology there are APA issues throughout so you will always be expected to know the APA rules for your paper. Please make sure the body of your case study paper includes all of the following components: Paper Components: Introduction: Describes the overall purpose of the paper (includes a description of case for background/context; briefly previews the campaign that will be analyzed and theoretical/scholarly literature that will be used; makes an argument for why that an area of scholarly literature is best suited to understanding the case). Literature Review: Summary of theoretical/scholarly literature reviewed for the case (at least 10 sources cited).

Results: Qualitative content analysis that is clearly guided by the theoretical framework/scholarly literature reviewed for the case (e.g., if you reviewed Social Cognitive theories/principles, you should be analyzing your data to report if and how those principles were used). Findings from analyzed data are written in a narrative/thematic/descriptive format with example quotes interspersed to serve as evidence. Discussion: Provides comparisons/contrasts to previous literature AND practical lessons learned and/or recommendations you have for how the individuals and/or organizations involved could have used theory to more strategically organize the campaign to realize more favorable outcomes. Limit the body of your paper to about 10-15 pages double-spaced; this page limit does not include the cover sheet and references. Follow APA style for citations and your reference list.
