Module 1 assignment
Communication
Practicum Project – Level One: Interpersonal Communication
This quarter you will have a Communication Practicum Project
which will last all six modules. The project will start this module. Students
will work on practical application of their learning through application and
analysis of a single movie from the last 50 years.
The choice of the movie is up to the student and cannot be
changed after turning in the first “Level” assignment. The practicum
concept is one where you the student will build on each module of work. Imagine
a video game like Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, or even the Legend of Zelda.
Each level brings you to new challenges, culminating to a final level.
The final level in the Practicum Project will be finalized
in module five. You will use a screen recording tool, such as
Screencast-O-Matic, and PowerPoint. Screencast-O-Matic is a free tool.
LEVEL ONE: Pick a movie and watch it, then using PowerPoint
create a short presentation describing elements which you learned from this module’s
lesson:
Introduce the setting, plot, and the main characters of the
movie?
Find three elements concerning the characteristics of
communication from your text and course notes and apply them to the movie, make
sure you cite your source(s) using APA.

Verbal Messages vs. Non-Verbal Messages.
