    Description
    This introductory communication course focuses on the basic foundations of interpersonal communication, small group communication, public speaking and mass communication. Students will be introduced to the breadth of the communication discipline. Additionally, students will examine and practice human communication principles and theories, at a basic level, to develop critical thinking and communication competencies in a variety of contexts. The student will be responsible for creating and presenting three public speeches, including extemporaneous or impromptu, informative and persuasive. These speeches are supervised and evaluated by a faculty member and are presented in front of a live audience for all modalities (face-to-face and hybrid).
