Communication in a Changing World with Student CD-ROM 2.0 and PowerWeb

Autor Bethami Dobkin, Roger Pace
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 ian 2005
Communication in a Changing World distinguishes itself from other texts through its emphasis on ethics and civility in communication; its original, integrated treatment of computer-mediated communication; and its authentic, engaging examples drawn frequently from popular culture. Communication in a Changing World regards communication as integral to the development of students as responsible citizens in a diverse world. The 2006 edition features a new "quick guide" for preparing a first speech that is audience-centered; in addition, each chapter now calls out even more clearly the theme of responsible communication.
