Communication Across Contexts: A Listening-Centered Approach is an
introductory text designed to give students of all majors a broad
skill set in communication. By exploring what it means to take a
listening-centered approach to communication, students learn that
communicative congruence is not just about getting what you want,
but is also about acting in ways that build positive relationships
and respect the wants and needs of others. The text prepares
students to develop public speaking, interpersonal, and small group
communication skills to succeed in college and the workplace. Since
listening is a crucial part of the communication process, this text
incorporates listening concepts across each of the following
contexts: public speaking, interpersonal, and small group
communication. Communication Across Contexts: A Listening-Centered
Approach: Frames each Chapter with provocative questions that
encourage students to explore how listening, in addition to
language and nonverbal skills, work together across communication
contexts. Reinforces the importance of communicative congruence
through relevant examples for college students. Includes guidelines
for managing group meetings and negotiating conflict within groups.
Streamlines content to the basics, which encourages students to
engage with the text and focus on the application of skills.
Instructors may add further readings or information to complement
the content of the text.
