Activity

Matthew, that is a good point. There is this concept of "cognitive intrusion" that goes hand in hand with what you are talking about - basically, we are too busy to think and listen. Now that you are aware of this limitation, what is your plan moving forward? Dr. Jean Norris
Matthew, It sounds like you have first hand experience! How do you encourage interaction when communicating in groups? Dr. Jean Norris
Discussion Comment
Robert, You bring up an important point, we need to understand our students' needs before we can communicate the benefits of our institution, so the student can determine if it's the right fit for them. What techniques do you use to read people and understand their needs? Dr. Jean Norris
Robert, You bring up a great point, non-verbal communication is extremely important especially when it comes to first impressions. What can you do to present a positive first impression to everyone you meet? Dr. Jean Norris
Tangela, Thanks for your post! Asking good questions is the right place to start. What are some of the questions you might ask to adapt your communication to keep the student engaged? Dr. Jean Norris
Joe, Sounds like you have some great resources to showcase your programs and school. It's nice to have options. Dr. Jean Norris
Joe, The question I have for you about questions is this....Are these types of questions for you? or for them? Dr. Jean Norris
Joe, You are right that all 4 competencies are essential for success. The key is finding out how you can expand each and every area to help your students to the highest degree given each will need something different. Great insights! Dr. Jean Norris

Cid, So I'm curious...how will you do this? Dr. Jean Norris
Cid, You aren't alone. This happens to a lot of people. It really comes down to a CHOICE. You can keep doing what you've always done however you may be able to reach MORE students if you do something differently. Maybe give it a try? Dr. Jean Norris
