What is communication?
• Process of exchanging information, ideas, thoughts, feelings, or messages
between individuals or groups through various mediums such as spoken or
written language, gestures, facial expressions, body language, symbols, or
electronic channels.
• Effective communication involves not only the transmission of information but
also the reception, understanding, and interpretation of that information by the
intended recipients.
• It plays a crucial role in human interaction, enabling people to share knowledge,
express emotions, coordinate actions, and establish connections with others.
Fundamentals of communication
DEFINITION of Communication
• Scholars have defined communication variously to limit or broaden
the study to which they want to apply the concept.
• The term communication is taken from the Latin word, communicare,
which means ‘to make common ‘ or ‘to share’.
• In line with this Latin meaning, the concept communication can be
defined as:
the process by which meaning is exchanged between individuals
through a common system of symbols.(Pearson, et al, 2003).

INTRODUCTION
• Welcome to the study of this Unit. The aim of this unit is to help you
acquire the basic study skills of time management, a skill necessary for a
person like yourself who is venturing into university studies. We will look at
how best we can manage our time. This unit on time management will give
you an opportunity to assess where your time goes so that you may make
some decisions about changes you would perhaps make to use your time
more efficiently.
• At University you have to organise your work for yourself, in any
subject that requires a lot of reading, this means you have to be self-
disciplined and to plan and use your time sensibly. The number of
immediate demands being made upon you by different lecturers and
different courses can be quite overwhelming at first. While
completing an essay in one course you may be starting one in another
and keeping up with reading for lectures in all courses. Success is not
just about intelligence, but about planning your time sensibly and
sticking to it. It is a habit that will prove useful not just at University,
but in your career too.
• Let us begin with looking at how best you can manage your time. Take
this opportunity to assess where your time goes so that you may
make some decisions about the kind of changes you would perhaps
make to use time efficiently. Note that there is no right way to
manage your time; however, it is important to get to know yourself so
that you can make good decisions about how to use our time.
• Basically we all have 24 hours in a day, 168 hours in a week to use as
we please; nevertheless, some people make better use of this time
than others. For the majority of us this is an area of our lives in which
we need much improvement-------hence let us begin the journey to
learn ways that may help us use our time more effectively.
What is Time Management?
• Planning your study is important. However, sitting down to plan your work
in detail may appear like a waste of time. Nonetheless taking the time to
organise makes your studying more effective in the following manner:
• You become more productive
• The quality of your work improves
• Because you know what you have done, and what you still have to do, you
do not panic about “falling behind”, or you leaving every thing to the last
minute.
• You build confidence as a student, and enjoy the work more.
• You enjoy your leisure time more.
Planning Your Time
• The key to planning your time is to impose an organization on your working time
by dividing it up. This can be applied at several levels: from the overall organization
of a semester (or the academic year, or even the whole of your degree
programme) down to planning how to organise a particular week (or a particular
day, or even a particular free hour).
How to organise
• The best way to organise is to do it in the manner that works for you. Just as there
is no right way to manage your time, there is no golden rule that works for
everyone. Therefore, what follows below are general ideas that may help you to
work out your own system for organising your time.
Dos:
• Take an inventory of the time available: Work out how much time you have available
and when. E.g. in one semester how many months/weeks/days do you have?
• List the tasks at hand: list all the tasks and other activities which you have to complete
within the time available. E.g. assignments, projects, exams, work activities, personal
social activities etc
• Prioritise your tasks :Work out priorities between the identified tasks. Which are urgent?
• Apportion your time according to your priority list: Giving more time to priority tasks,
decide on how much time should be spent on each task and set targets for each work.
• Segment tasks: Organise pieces of work (essays, presentations papers) into smaller, less
demoralizing tasks.
Don’ts:
Avoid the following:
• Trying to do it all at once – you will feel overwhelmed and so give up!
• Neglect any of your courses, especially those you find relatively easy or
particularly difficult – every course you are taking is just as important as the
others and a failure in one will lead to you not graduating.
• Drift from essay deadline to essay deadline. While working on one essay in one
course, you should continue reading and preparing for classes in other courses,
and perhaps make initial preparations for future essay.
• Allow yourself to be distracted - Be loyal to your time table. Distractors are
timewasters, they eat into your time planned for specific activities.
Do you waste time?
Before you answer the question pause and consider how much time each
day you spend on the following activities:-
•Sleeping
•Grooming
•Eating/cooking
•Socializing / Playing Sport
•Watching television
•Making telephone calls
•Using the internet
•Shopping
•Doing housework
•Traveling
•Working
•Going to lectures/Studying
The following are time management principles you may find useful:
• Identify your best time for study
• Try to study at the same time each day
• Use free time be it on campus or at home
• Study difficult subjects first
• Take regular breaks
• Have a suitable study environment
• Multi-task where possible: Combine activities e.g. study while on a bus
• Sleep and eat properly
• Leave unplanned time for flexibility
• Allow time for relaxation and entertainment
Weekly Planning
• Planning at this stage is more about developing a successful routine. Note
that we all have different habits here - different times when we are most
wide awake, different times when we can get on with things undisturbed,
different degrees of success at getting down to hard work even when we
have only got a short time available. And the lesson to learn here too is to
control things rather than be pushed around.
• At the beginning of the week it seems like there is plenty of time to get
everything done. But after lectures, work, sleeping, eating, traveling etc.
there is frustratingly little time left. Here are some suggestions for how to
get the most of the remaining hours.
• Use a diary to assign exactly when and how much time you have available. You could
perhaps use a copy of the timetable on which you have entered your contact hours -
lectures and tutorials - at the beginning of the semester. This will need to be adjusted
to include evenings and weekends in your plan.
• Compile lists of tasks to be completed during the week. Some of these (taking a quick
look over last week's lecture and class notes, for example) may be done in odd spare
hours such as between lectures. Others (such as essays and presentation papers) will
require longer stretches of time.
• Allocate these tasks to days and periods of time, depending on how big each is, and
how urgent.
• Be flexible. Learn from your mistakes. (In estimating how long a task will take, for
example). If your schedule isn't working, change it. Don't always work in the same
place. Break up long study sessions into different tasks.
• Don't waste half of a study session sitting around waiting for inspiration. Do
something to get your brain working:
• Jot down the tasks that need doing.
• Start with one of the smaller tasks
• Read through some lecture notes to get you thinking about what you are
reading/writing.
• Draft a page of an essay (you can always change it later).
• Start in the middle of the essay, if this is more straightforward, and then go
back to the Introduction.
• Take responsibility for your working patterns. Work to the deadline you have
set.
Semester Planning
• Use a year-planner, e.g. a wall chart or the thing you find in the inside cover
of a diary.
• Make sure you've marked the following: beginning and end of the semester;
the crucial dates for submission of assignments and coursework; the dates of
the exams period; the numbering of each week in the semester.
• This technique will enable you to have a means of keeping under review
various signs of progress such as: how far through the semester are you?
How far through the syllabus for this course-unit are you supposed to be?
How long until the exams? What proportion of the books you intended to
read have you got through so far?
• Then you can also make plans for times when you will be more stretched than
usual - when are you going out for the weekend, when are the games of that
tournament you've been training for? And conversely, when are the blocks of
time when there will be relatively few other demands on your time? Some
foresight over these questions will allow you to plan ahead in investing your time
wisely rather than just wasting it away at the times you have some to spare.
• You can also plan for when resources will be more or less accessible.
• When are the vital books from the library going to be in most demand? How am I
going to get access to the web or my essay files during the vacation? Once again,
having the time freed up to work for something other than an immediate and
urgent deadline will allow you to plan rather than be pushed around.
• So, in short: spend your time as if it were costing you money.
Time Saving Tips
• Don't overdo it. It is hardly ever a sensible plan to work until you drop
and if you end up working in irregular and infrequent binges you'll
inevitably under perform, to say nothing of that background feeling of
being vaguely out of control.
• Pace yourself and establish a functional upper limit to the length of
time you can concentrate before the effort starts to outweigh the
benefits.
• Find strategies for dealing with the times when you know your
concentration isn't going to hold up. Make a note of places you
couldn't quite follow what you heard or read, so that you can come
back to it when you're fresher.
• Look for a way to make it easy to get back into something you're
reading even if you have to take a break. It can sometimes be helpful
to force yourself to break off mid-chapter, mid-paragraph or even
mid-idea, so as to make it easier to pick up the threads again later,
rather than trying to plunge in 'cold' to a totally new topic or chapter.
Find out what works for you.
• Find smaller tasks that will occupy you in 'between' times - e.g. that
slightly-less-than-a- free-hour between two lectures. Maybe you're
working on a particular article or book chapter, or are doing some
practice of some kind etc. But give yourself a task that can realistically
be done in the time you allot yourself.
• Keep ahead of the game: as much as you can, try to read before the
relevant lecture rather than after it. There's a world of difference
between reading ahead and therefore having the ideas already
formed in your mind when you hear the lecturer dissecting them, and
on the other hand reading in a kind of 'remedial' way, to try to puzzle
out what on earth was being talked about in a lecture you weren't
really able to follow.
• It doesn't involve much more effort for this to work; it's just a
question of getting the timing right.
The moral of the story:
• There's a big difference between being on top of things and playing
catch-up all the time, and keeping a watchful eye on how you make
use of your own time can be enough to tip the balance the right way.
Listening & Learning Styles
Introduction
• Active listening is necessary for effective communication. Active
listening focuses on the speaker and what is being said. As the
listener, you should then be able to repeat in your own words what
the speaker has said to their satisfaction. This does not mean you
agree with them, but rather understand, what they are saying. We
were given two ears but only on mouth……this probably indicates that
listening is twice as hard as talking. Furthermore, our ability to
analyze and increase understanding of the techniques of effective
listening will facilitate successful university study.
• In this unit we will also look at learning styles. This is because we
don’t all learn in the same way. Understanding your preferred
learning style can help you study effectively by using techniques best
suited to your preferred style. It can help you read the information,
process the information, organize and present the information. Upon
completion of this unit you will be able to:
• Analyse and increase understanding of the techniques of effective listening;
• Listen effectively in a variety of situations for a variety of purposes; Outcomes
:Practice the behaviours of effective, active listeners;
• Use effective listening skills to take accurate notes and summarise information
presented in oral form;
• Describe active listening/participation and explain its role in an academic environment;
• Assess strengths in listening and set goals for future growth;
• Identify your preferred learning style;
• Explain why independent learning skills are important and describe how they might be
applied in an academic environment;
• Study effectively by using techniques best suited to your preferred style.
Listening
• Definition: Active Listening: This is where you make a conscious effort to hear not only
the words that another person is saying but, more importantly, to try and understand
the total message being sent.
• Listening is one of the most important skills you can have. How well you listen does
impact greatly on how effectively you study and also on the quality of your relationships
with others.
• Why do we listen?
• We listen to obtain information.
• We listen to understand.
• We listen for enjoyment.
• We listen to learn.
• Considering the amount we spend listening, one would expect each
one of us to be good at listening! A number of studies carried out
indict that we remember a miserable 25-50% of what we hear. That
means that when you talk to our colleagues, customers, supervisors
or spouse for 10 minutes, they only really hear 2½-5 minutes of the
conversation.
• This implies and tells you that when you are receiving directions or
being presented with information, you aren’t hearing the whole
message either. You hope the important parts are captured in your
25- 50%, but what if they’re not?
• Without a doubt, listening is a skill that we can all benefit from
improving. By becoming a better listener, you will improve your
effectiveness as regards study, productivity, as well as your ability to
influence, persuade and negotiate. What’s more, you’ll also avoid
conflict and misunderstandings – all necessary for university study
and not to mention workplace success.
• For you to be a good communicator it is necessary to have a high level
of self-awareness. By understanding your personal style of
communicating, you will go a long way towards creating good and
lasting impressions with others.
• The only way to become a better listener is to practice “active listening”.
This is where you make a conscious effort to hear not only the words that
another person is saying (in this case your lecturer) but, more
importantly, to try and understand the total message being sent.
• In order to do this you must pay attention to the other person i.e. your
lecturer very carefully.
• You cannot allow yourself to become distracted by what else may be
going on around you, or by forming counter arguments that you’ll make
when the other person stops speaking. Nor can you allow yourself to lose
focus on what the other person is saying. All of these barriers contribute
to a lack of listening and understanding.
• Barriers to Active Listening
• Since listening involves both physical activities –attending, i.e. capturing stimulus from the
environment using the hearing organ- and mental activities- interpreting, analysing, responding
and evaluating stimuli/messages; distractions also occur at these two levels.
• External - e.g. distractions e.g. noise, time
• Internal – e.g. boredom, emotions, motivation, stress
• If you're finding it particularly difficult to concentrate on what the lecturer is saying, try repeating
their words mentally as they say it – this will reinforce their message and help you control mind
drift.
• To enhance your listening skills, you need to let the other person know that you are listening to
what he or she is saying. To understand the importance of this, ask yourself if you’ve ever been
engaged in a conversation when you wondered if the other person was listening to what you were
saying. You are unsure if your message is getting across, or if it’s even worthwhile to continue
speaking. It feels like talking to a brick wall and it’s something you want to avoid.
Becoming an Active Listener
• There are five key elements of active listening. They all help you ensure that you hear the other person,
and that the other person knows you are hearing what they are saying.
• Pay attention.
• Give the speaker your undivided attention and acknowledge the message. Recognize that what is not said
also speaks loudly.
• Look at the speaker directly.
• Put aside distracting thoughts. Don’t mentally prepare a rebuttal!
• Avoid being distracted by environmental factors.
• “Listen” to the speaker’s body language.
• Refrain from side conversations when listening in a group setting.
• Show that you are listening.
• Use your own body language and gestures to convey your attention. Nod occasionally. Smile and use other
facial expressions.
Strategies for Effective Listening
• Focus attention on the subject.
• Do pre-reading or review of the subject.
• Avoid distractions.
• Maintain eye contact with speaker.
• Be involved – respond to Q’s, ask Q’s, Use non verbal signals to show interest.
• Set aside prejudices and opinions. Control your emotions.
• Be active – listening is not passive
• Ask yourself what key points are made?
• How is the information organized?
• How does this connect with what I already know?
• Aim to be a better listener.
• Note your posture and make sure it is open and inviting. Encourage the
speaker to continue with small verbal comments like yes and uh huh.
• Provide feedback.
• Our personal filters, assumptions, judgments, and beliefs can distort what
we hear. As a listener, your role is to understand what is being said. This
may require you to reflect what is being said and ask questions.
• Reflect what has been said by paraphrasing. “What I’m hearing is…” and
“Sounds like you are saying…” are great ways to reflect back.
• Ask questions to clarify certain points. “What do you mean when you
say…” “Is this what you mean?” Summarize the speaker’s comments
periodically.
• Defer judgment, wait to listen to the total presentation before making
judgement.
• Do not engage the presenter in unnecessary arguments. Interrupting is a waste
of time. It frustrates the speaker and limits your full understanding of the
message. Allow the speaker to finish. Don’t interrupt with counter-arguments.
• Respond Appropriately.
• Active listening is a model for respect and understanding. You are gaining
information and perspective. You add nothing by attacking the speaker or
otherwise putting him or her down.
• Be candid, open, and honest in your response. Assert your opinions
respectfully. Treat the other person as he or she would want to be treated.
• Take Note:
• You have to concentrate and be determined to be an active listener. Old habits
are hard to break, and if your listening habits are as bad as many people’s are,
then there’s a lot of habit-breaking to do!
• Be intentional with your listening and remind yourself constantly that your goal
is to really hear what the other person is saying. Put aside all other thoughts
and behaviours and concentrate on the message. Ask question, reflect, and
paraphrase to ensure you understand the message. If you don’t, then you’ll find
that what someone says to you and what you hear can be remarkably different!
• Elements:
1. Purpose: prompts the writer to clearly answer the question ‘why
write?’
2. Point of View: Shows the stance of the writer in discussing a certain
topic.
3. Organization: major portions of any composition are Introduction,
main text/main body and the conclusion.
4. Support: statements the writer makes in a piece of writing should be
supported by evidence either from life experience or other writers. This
mainly depends on what kind the composition one is dealing with.
• Evidence-Based: Academic writing relies heavily on evidence to support
claims and arguments. This evidence often comes from research, scholarly
sources, data, or empirical observations.
• Citation and Referencing: Academic writers are expected to provide proper
citations and references for all sources used. Common citation styles include
APA, MLA, Chicago, and others, depending on the discipline and
institution's guidelines.
5. Coherence and Cohesion: ability, on the part of the writer, to
connect ideas in a logical manner so that the reader of the given piece
of writing would be able to follow and enjoy the story. They may even
be prompted to support the writer beyond reasonable doubt.
Coherence and cohesion in writing.
• Compare; interpret;
• Contrast; justify;
• Define; list;
• Describe; outline;
• Discuss; prove;
• Evaluate; examine
• Explain; illustrate.
• You must understand what you are expected to do when you meet these
command words in examination, tests and assignment questions (Redman,
2006).
• Show understanding of relevant arguments and views of different writers about the topic
(need to read widely);
• Show ability to analyze, and contrast competing positions and evaluate their strengths and
weaknesses effectively. In other words, markers expect you to comment on various
positions of the ideas you use in your assignment or essay. Do not just copy other people’s
ideas without your input;
• Write clearly and logically. To do this, the student is expected to develop an effective and
logical argument, logical reasoning and effective use of well selected examples and
evidence. The writer should have a writing plan or outline to help him or her o that;
• Demonstrate understanding of theoretical issues;
• Show originality; and,
• Show ability to cite relevant ideas by various authors and use a standard referencing system
accurately.
Excellence in Writing an Academic Essay
• To write effectively you should not only know how to express yourself clearly and
logically on paper but you should also know that university essays use acceptable
style that conforms to university practice. In other words, you should know that
university essays follow strict rules of scholarly writing and failure to follow these
rules may not earn you good marks.
• According to Redman (2006), Thody, (2006) and Strong (2006), an
academic/university essay must be:
• Formal- anything formal is governed by strict rules. This means that the writer
should use formal language and avoid use of slang, clichés and short forms;
• Factual- present facts and not mere opinions. Opinions must be supported by facts.
This means that the essay must be well researched and evidence- based;
• Objective- give a balanced argument to avoid being biased;
• Well-structured- an assignment should have a structure in to ensure
that information is well organized and ideas are clear and logical. The
essay should have an introduction, main body and a conclusion. The
main body of the essay is the longest part of the assignment because
it provides details presented in paragraphs. The paragraphs should be
linked by using transitional words. The writer may use headings and
sub-headings as guided or preferred by the lecturer concerned.
• Well-referenced; cite and reference relevant sources of information
borrowed to avoid plagiarism.
Aims of writing Academic Essays/papers
• When organising our time, Adair (1988: 51) states that ‘the centrepiece
will tend to be goals and objectives’.
• OR
• When organising our time ‘the centrepiece will tend to be goals and
objectives’ (Adair, 1988: 51).
• McCarthy and Hatcher (1996, pp. 69-70) insist that with presentations ‘structure
must be clear and precise’.
• OR
• With presentations, ‘structure must be clear and precise’ (McCarthy and Hatcher,
1996, pp.69-70).
• In these examples, the quote went over two pages therefore the page numbers
were represented as 69-70, rather than as a single number. Also notice from the
examples so far, that when the quote ends the sentence, the full stop comes after
the inverted comma.
Direct quote from a book or journal article with three authors
• Fisher, Ury and Patton (1991, p. 37) suggest that when emotional
issues cloud negotiation, ‘some thoughts are best left unsaid’.
• OR
• ‘Some thoughts are best left unsaid’ when emotional issues cloud
negotiation (Fisher, Ury and Patton, 1991, p. 37).
• If hypothetical authors Morris, Ling, Brown, Smith, and Diaz wrote a
book published in 2000, a direct quote would look like this.
• Note that in the next example, ‘et al’ means ‘and others’.
• Direct quote from a book or journal article with more than three
authors
• The DfEE (2001, p. 8) suggest that each year ‘some have estimated
the cost to the country of poor literacy and numeracy skills to be as
high as £10 billion’.
• OR - PARAPHRASE
• The effect of low levels of adult numeracy and literacy skills could be
costing Britain around £10 billion each year (DfEE, 2001, p. 8).
• You might also like to rearrange the quote so that the reference comes at
the end, as you have been shown in previous examples.
• When you are researching, you may come across a situation where the
same author has written two books in the same year. To distinguish one
title from another in your referencing, place a lower-case letter after the
publication date, with ‘a’ signalling the first reference, and ‘b’ signalling the
second, and so on.
• Sometimes the author you are quoting from will quote another author to
support his or her argument, much in the same way that you do when
writing assignments. Sometimes you want to use the same quote that the
author of the source has used. When you do this, use the format below.
• Eisenberg and Smith (in Bolton, 1986, p. 85) agree that ‘it is hard to
assign general meaning to any isolated nonverbal sign’.
• In the case above, Bolton in his 1996 publication has quoted
Eisenberg’s and Smith’s research to prove a point he was making
about non-verbal communication.
• If the author of a source is anonymous, replace the author’s surname
with the title of the work in the brackets containing the reference.
Consider the following fictitious example.
• Reference newspaper and magazine articles in the same way you
would for other books and journals. However, when the author is
anonymous, use the system below (adapted from Lewis, 1999: 26).
• The Guardian reported that twenty-nine inmates were participating in the programme (‘Serving time’,
1996, p. 21).
• Dr. Wilma Flintstone stated in her lecture on 5 September 2000 that acid
jazz has roots as far back as 1987.
• Adult learners should learn the art of effective note-taking for the simple
reason that students ‘are more likely to remember what they have heard
or read if they take an active part in their learning’ (Dhann, 2001:3).
• Adult learners should learn the art of effective note-taking for the simple
reason that students ‘are more likely to remember what they have heard
or read if they take an active part in their learning’ (Department of
Lifelong Learning, 2001, p. 3).
• Electronic sources such as WWW pages, electronic databases and
electronic journals are cited in the text in much the same way as
traditional print sources, with the exception of page numbers.
• The author’s name is followed by a publication date, but no page
numbers are listed. If no publication date is available, and this might
be the case for WWW pages, then where the date should go, insert
(n.d.) which stands for ‘no date’. If no author is listed for an electronic
source, use the title of the publication in the same way as you would
for any other anonymous source.
Creating a reference list
• All of the sources you refer to in the main body of your assignment need to be listed
at the end of the assignment in a reference list. In a reference list, you only need to
list those sources from which you have either quoted or paraphrased. For example,
you do not have to list books you used for background reading purposes.
• When creating a reference list, the sources should be listed alphabetically by
author’s surname, should be left justified, and the references should never be
preceded by a bullet-point or number. Where the author is anonymous or unknown
for any one source, insert that source in the alphabetical list using the title of the
source instead of the author’s name. All sources should be listed together; there
should not be separate lists for books versus journal articles versus electronic
sources. The reference list should be on a separate page from the rest of the
assignment and should be simply titled ‘References’ or ‘Literature Cited’ and the
title should be in the same font and size as the other headings in your assignment.
• When you use the Harvard System, you are only usually required to
produce a reference list. However, some lecturers and tutors may want you
to produce a bibliography instead of a reference list. In cases where you are
asked to produce a bibliography, you must list all sources you have
consulted, regardless of whether you cited from them or not. Also, some
lecturers or tutors may ask you to produce an annotated bibliography or
reference list. This simply means that after each source listed, you write a
couple of sentences that appraise the book’s usefulness in relation to the
topic.
• The following is a guide to how to list references in a reference list. If you
have an example that is not covered by the list below, please check with
your tutor or the Student Support Officer regarding the correct technique.
• Book with one author
• Danaher, P. (ed.) (1998) Beyond the ferris wheel, Rockhampton: CQU Press.

Newspaper articles
• The conventions for listing journal articles are similar to books, but
note the extra information required in the example below and apply
this to all journal article listings.
Journal article
• In this example, Muller has written the journal article ‘Trapped in the
body: Transsexualism, the law, sexual identity’ and it has appeared in
the journal ‘Australian Feminist Law Journal, in it’s 3rd volume that
was published in August of 1994. The article appears on pages 103 to
107 of the journal.
• Please note that sometimes, instead of ‘volume’ there may be an
‘issue’ number, and instead of a month of publication, there may be a
season.
• Sometimes there will be a volume number and an issue number.
• In those cases, list both the volume and issue numbers as has been
done below.
