Students learn firsthand the dynamics of intrapersonal and small-group communication through a variety of activities designed to foster an increased awareness of how transactional communication works. The importance of interpersonal relationship skills in the helping professions is emphasized and an Anabaptist framework for working restoratively in community is explored in this course. Preference given to junior and senior level psychology majors.
