 Before we evaluate your listening within interpersonal communication, let’s continue to evaluate your individual listening skills  Practice your listening within two different scenarios; one from category A and one from category B  Category A: favorite television show, new/unfamiliar song by favorite artist, favorite talk show, funny/interesting clip on YouTube  Category B: news broadcast, political speech, class lecture (other than our class)  Compare your listening for each:  What were the similarities and/or differences?  Were there any barriers involved? (noise, message overload, message complexity, etc.)  Were you an effective listener? Why or why not? (use textbook terminology in your explanation)  Now, wait until the next day (or at least a few hours); how much of each situation do you still remember? What helped you remember?  See assignment sheet for format  Second AE – Bring an item that is important to you  Quiz
