Advanced Interpersonal Communication

Griffin, E. (1987). Making friends and making them count.

Walter Fisher suggests we are moving or have moved from a Rational World Paradigm to a Narrative Paradigm. How do the two axioms in this week’s reading — “Without identification there is no communication” and “To reveal oneself openly and honestly takes the rawest kind of courage” — play a role in a Narrative Paradigm? Speak to the issues of fidelity and coherence. Are you convinced more in a Rational World Paradigm or a Narrative Paradigm? Why? Respond with your initial thoughts and then respond to the posts of at least two classmates in a way that will help all of us think more critically about our responses as they relate to the reading.

RESEARCH PAPER: FINAL SUBMISSION ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS

OVERVIEW

Through Discussion Board Forums and Journal Assignments, you have explored some of the emerging Disruptive Media Technologies and Cultural Trends (DMTCs) that can generate and affect businesses, nonprofits, churches, families, and other personally connected social units.

In this Research Paper, you have the opportunity to expand the scale of your research using a specific DMTC of your choice along with its historical antecedents, the unique conditions by which a mediated technology/idea achieves validity, the dynamics of change, and the means by which a given organization can strategically harness the phenomenon into a successful web strategy for growth.

INSTRUCTIONS

Your paper must consist of the following:
● A detailed description of the chosen disruptive media technology and/or trending cultural idea, and its’ primary elements. Is this a regional, national, or global DMTC?

● Historical antecedents of similar DMTC phenomena; why a given technology or idea gave birth to a movement, whether organizations dismissed or embraced this force, and the natural outcomes of that decision.

● Conditions (societal, business, and cultural) that allow this DMTC phenomenon to gain “legs,” that is to say, the kind of compelling force that must be addressed. If the DMTC is of regional or national status, what would it take for this DMTC to reach global status?

● A description of your chosen organization in terms of establishment, purpose, and in your opinion, potential opportunities and challenges.

● Your strategic plan to effectively embrace selected components which will successfully transform your organization. Include a visual “landing page” website mockup that demonstrates your organization’s commitment to change

As this DMTC continues to morph, how will your organization recognize and meet whatever challenges and/or opportunities emerge?

The impact of the media on violence is an area of ongoing debate. This media includes, but is not limited to, video games, movies, and news reporting. The debate focuses on the way media influences or promotes the general acceptance of violent behavior in society, including the focus on long-term psychological effects that violent media may have on the development of children. One group may argue that violence in media needs to be censored while another group may argue that censorship is a means to mask other possible causes of violent behavior.
