| Hello,
Everyone:
Welcome
to week #13!
We’re starting to wrap things up! This
week we’ll run out of book to read and YOTKBN questions
to answer. Yes, we’re that close to the end of the term!
This
week we’ll be reading about group discussions. Be
sure to learn the various group discussion roles, how they’re
played and how you should react to them. Notice the problem-solving
group discussion sequence. We’ll be using this sequence
to solve a problem as part of the Group Discussion Project.
As soon as you’ve read and understood this material
you’ll
automatically become the most knowledgeable member in about
90% of the meetings in which you’ll participate. Then,
you’re really dangerous. (in a positive way)
I’ve
set up two new discussion forums. We’ll use
Week #13 SPE 101 Weaknesses discussion forum to post any
class weaknesses/problems we identify based on the Group
Discussion
Survey Results.
We’ll
use the Week #13 SPE 101 Strengths discussion forum to
post the class strong
points we identify based on the survey results.
On
the lighter side, this week’s Study Break offers some
funny quotes about meetings and two true stories about
Richard Brinsley Sheridan and word-play.
Keep
in touch. Let me know if you need anything. Remember, I’m
never more than an email away.
Take
care,
Steven |
