課程概述

《課程概述》

課程講授以英文進行,但課堂應對,實際演練以及作業,鼓勵但不要求同學使用英文。

溝通是群體生活裡的必要技巧,更是領導團隊的基礎技能,運用熟練了甚至可成為創意的一個出發點;不管我們喜歡與否,我們每天都在溝通。但溝通的效果如何?如何判斷?是否有改進的空間?如何改進?為什麼要改進?這些都是我們該問,但不見得會問的問題。
溝通實務課課的目標,始於(重新)建立對溝通的認識,然後提供基本訓練,幫助落實同學溝通基礎,並掌握練習方法,長期自我/小組訓練,讓同學更有機會能實現自己,影響他人,在社會中發揮作用。課程探討溝通的意義與目的,溝通基礎,有效溝通,溝通的型態,以及如何進行有效溝通。也討論在公眾前說話時的實際技巧。然後,由同學實際在課堂中,課堂外,實際演練。有備稿演講,即席演講,團體簡報,等不同的演練項目。 

課程目標
培養及增進基本溝通能力,成為個人其他技能/學識的基礎,並有效運用溝通,發揮影響力。

Dale Carnegie’s book is the classic in the field. There is reason why people still read it to this day (80+ years). So, please do read it. I still read it at least once a year.
Ed Catmull wrote a wonderful book on how to manage a whole group of talented, gifted people, stressing on how to help each other to do and be their best and together create incredible things. This is the book that I think serves as a great start and an excellent companion to the Carnegie’s book for the rest of your life.
Books marked with a single * (nos. 1,3,4,5,7,8,11) are required reading. Students are to collaborate to work through all these books. Reference to the books are made throughout the semester, and you are responsible for
Book 6 is listed not as required reading. It is for those that really want to touch every perspective of communication, and you will benefit greatly if you choose to read it. Since nobody seems to know how to do it right. If you know the right way to do it, you will save yourself a lot of seemingly irrecoverable mistakes in life.
Book 8 is a starting book that will help you approach the idea ‘think outside the box’. It is chosen as an extension for ‘empathy’ to connect you to the world that you will be stepping into after college.
Book 10 is a book on methodology for scientific research. You are advised to read it to build sound logic for your reasoning.
Book 11 is another book that you should read so that you learn another aspect of influencing others. The gist is to understand the weakness of human reasoning to help you detect your own flaws and leverage the common flaws to further your goal. This book is meaningful for the ambitious. You decide if you are ambitious.

Books 10, 11and 12 are very helpful if you are interested in building a clear and logical head capable of true independent and critical reasoning/thinking instead of being a mocking bird capable of nothing except repeating others.
I suggest that you obtain all the books listed here as they can be lifelong companion that will prove to be important tool in your life pursuit.
