1) The Feedback Problem: In public communication (like a lecture), feedback from the audience is often limited to non-verbal cues (nodding, looking confused). How can a public speaker actively create better feedback loops to ensure their message is being understood? 2) Intergroup Conflict: Intergroup communication (e.g., between political parties or rival sports fans) is often difficult. How do concepts like "stereotypes" and "group identity" act as psychological interference? How can this interference be reduced? 3) The Role of Context: How does the context of a "workplace" change the rules of communication compared to the context of a "family gathering"? Think about formality, language, and non-verbal behavior. 4) Ethics of the Source: The source of a message has a lot of power. What is the ethical responsibility of a source (e.g., a news organization, a social media influencer) when encoding a message? How can a responsible receiver check for bias or interference from the source? 5) Self-Awareness: Think about your strongest and weakest communication type (e.g., one-on-one, group, online, public). What is easy for you? What makes you nervous? Why? 6) Channel Preference: Do you prefer to have serious conversations (like resolving a conflict) in person, or through text? Why? What does your preferred channel protect you from? What might it make worse? 7) Feedback: How do you usually show someone you are listening to them? Is it through words, or non-verbal feedback like nodding? How do you feel when someone doesn't give you this feedback? 8) The Misread Text: Everyone has had a text message be misunderstood. Describe a time this happened to you. What interference (missing tone, no emojis, cultural difference) caused the misunderstanding? How did you fix it? 9) Online vs. Real Life: Is your "online" personality the same as your "in-person" personality? Why or why not? How does the context of being behind a screen change the message you send? 10) The Group Chat: Analyze a group chat you're in. How is the communication different there than when you talk to those same people one-on-one? How does intergroup dynamics play out? 11) Reducing Interference: If you had to give one piece of advice to reduce interference in online conversations, what would it be? 12) Adapting: Describe a time you had to adapt your communication style (your message, your channel, your tone) to be understood by a specific person or group. What did you learn from that?
