Experience Communication

by Jeffrey T. Child, Judy C. Pearson, Paul E. Nelson

In today's digital world, where global boundaries can be bridged in an instant, strong communication skills have never been more important. Experience Communication teaches the fundamentals of successful communication in an increasingly digital and global environment, and motivates students to confidently use digital tools and social media to represent themselves effectively in person and online. Written for today’s digital native student, Experience Communication reflects how pervasive the mediated aspect of communication impacts our lives. Unique chapters include Mediated communication and Social media, Intercultural and Global Communication, and Communication in the Workplace. Updates throughout the second edition include significant emphasis on broadening public communication and strategies for meeting challenges posed by mediated communication, including privacy management and boundary concern, preparing students with today’s necessary workplace-ready communication skills.
