Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
First of all, students are taught how to obtain information that will enable them to know themselves and other people. At the beginning of each lesson, the student is given an olay event-situation cek to reflect on the subject of the week and a discussion is opened on it. Then, in the light of scientific and social data, the situation is explained and information is compiled. Academicians, writers, artists and practitioners who are experts in their fields are invited as speakers.

Course Content

This course covers the impact of social context, culture, identity and roles on face-to-face communication. In this course, interpersonal communication elements are analyzed within the framework of case studies. Students are expected to participate in the discussion and prepare a group project.
