The Importance of Reflective Listening in Professional Contexts Effective communication is integral across a variety of professional workplaces to build and maintain relationships. In an interview with a professional in two diverse workplaces –on the spectrum of oral to written communication– I had the opportunity to discuss common miscommunications and their potential solutions. Through reflection and research, I investigated suitable communication skills to effectively supplement my future…

*Texting and walking simulation* I am 17 years old I have had my licenses for over a year now, and haven’t gotten in any accidents. I became a little more risky, using my phone, looking away from the road more. I didn’t think that getting in an accident would ever happen to me, I thought I was a great driver. Until I cross the median into oncoming traffic with my friends in the car. I’m unconscious, I had to be pulled out of the wreckage. I was rushed to the hospital into surgery. The nurses are…

Melody- This song plays along in conjuct motion. The band stays in range keeping that nice even flow. The guitar solo took more articulation with the additional notes compared to the guitar rift. Legato definitely fits, the rift and the solo blend together appropriately. McJagger's vocals definitely add an unique accent. Harmony- The chords are in major during the whole lapse of the song. McJagger's vocals are also in major. Timbre- First and foremost, McJagger's voice strikes me at the end…

Before going into our scavenger hunt, I thought that communicating with people without speech would not be a hard task; however, after approaching our first destination, I quickly realized that this scavenger hunt would be more challenging than I originally thought. Every person that we tried to communicate with seemed very confused and gave us funny facial expressions. My group signed to each other, and the people that we were trying to communicate with were definitely wondering what was…

I went back to sleep. I awake in pain, at around three in the morning. I go to the bathroom to get some medicine, when i again feel like i am being watched. Full of uneasiness, i head downstairs to eat the feelings away, like always. I hear a weak knock at the door, as if the knocker was afraid of breaking the door. I open the door and a hooded figure falls through the doorway, onto the floor. I try to help the person, and i ask if it is okay. When it doesn’t respond, i tap it on what i thought…

It’s late at night and I feel very hungry, I really don’t want to wake up anyone in the house so I just sneak out of my room to the kitchen. With my stomach grumbling, I open the fridge and take out a chocolate milk carton. I look around to make sure I haven’t woken anyone up and I took a long quenching drink directly from the milk carton. I then close the carton and put it back in the refrigerator. I don’t think my mom has no idea I do this a couple of times a week. B. I had been planning my…

Kuroko walked back into his living room to see that the other five guys had not moved much. The only obvious difference was that Kise was not sitting next to Murasakibara. He quickly found that they did not notice him and he relaxed a little. Born with a very low, mostly undetectable presence had left Kuroko accustomed to being unnoticed. He found that though it was considered a curse, his low presence came quite in handy at times. He spotted Akashi still lying down on the side of the couch he…

Pennhurst Asylum, Spring City, PA 1987 All I hear is voices. All day, everyday, that's all I can hear. Sometimes I think it's normal, at least they keep me company. There are so many, but one voice always sticks out above all of them. Overall she usually stays calm, but she screams at me sometimes. She gets angry when I don’t do as she asks. 2 years earlier: I squirm in my seat on the park bench and wonder what my life would be like if I was like them; if only I was like the other kids in my…

American Journal of Audiology, 10, 53-61. doi:10.1044/1059-0889(2001/008) Although extensive research has been conducted to determine the effects of aging on peripheral hearing sensitivity, the effects of aging on the central auditory nervous system through the use of auditory brainstem response (ABR) procedures is less commonly researched. A previous study attempted to examine the…
