This course was a required course for my degree. I'm going for a Business Management Associates Degree. But even though it is required I'm hoping to learn how to communicate better in my job ( current and future) and also in my everyday life. I know this is an area I need to improve on. I'm a fast talker and and thinker I realize I need to slow down, stop,listen and focus more.

I feel intrigued most by noise communication. After looking through the chapter I feel this isn't one I would have considered or thought of. The way its presented seems interesting and the way its talked about makes me think of noise in a totally different way.

I think all of them will be useful. I think channels, feedback and effect will be most beneficial because I'm not as familiar with these types. I know anytime you are learning and advancing your communication it will be beneficial to your work, life, family and discussions. But applying the new learned skills is really the only way it will actually benefit you. This part can be tricky because you can fall back into your own ways and need to remind yourself of what you've learned to keep on track.
