課程概述

Course Description:

This course presents a survey of contemporary theories and research regarding the interaction between gender and communication. Emphasis will be given to a variety of factors and contexts involved in daily communication such as language, nonverbal messages, interpersonal and familiar relationships, educational process, mass media, and work place. Each class session consists of lectures, group exercises, and case studies. During lectures, the basic premises and contemporary research in the field of gender communication are presented in accordance with the reading assignments. As for in-class activities and home assignments, students will be asked to reflect on their own beliefs and practice, and to apply the theoretical principles to their daily interactions with people of same and different sex in order to communicate more effectively. However, students are NOT required to reveal any personal information that they are not comfortable sharing.
