Essay-Reflection
Consider the concepts and theories surrounding trust & deception, power & influence and conflict in interpersonal communication in modules 8 & 9, reflect on your life experience in your most intimate and committed relationships, this may be a romantic relationship but not necessarily, consider your closest friendships, family or workplace relationships. Select 2-3 theories, principles or concepts and demonstrate a conscious and thorough understanding of the concept and/or theories you choose. Make connections between your anecdotal experience and apply specific and convincing citations to support your ideas and assertions.

As you develop your essay incorporate your personal perspective with what you have discovered. Spend some time on this. Remember, reflective writing gives you the opportunity to think deeply about your learning. You’ll want to refer back to portions of the text and your outside readings which have influenced you most, but remember you are not simply restating what the text has said. You want to dig deeper…. to wonder…. and to reflect on what you have realized…. what you have “figured out” so far.

This is your opportunity to connect and share your insights. Focus on providing substance and specifics.

Three academic references are required, one source may be your textbook however, read and explore beyond the scope of the materials provided in the course. Include a reference page (a title page is not required).

Use stylistically sophisticated language that is precise and engaging, with notable sense of voice, awareness of audience and purpose, and varied sentence structure.

750-1000 words, be clear and concise in your writing. Demonstrate control of the conventions with essentially no errors, develop with sophisticated language, which is academic in nature.
