to learn more about that is directly relevant to the nature of communication. Research this topic in the
school library. Identify and read at least one book and 4 to 6 peer reviewed articles on the topic. On that
basis, develop a position and write a short essay that explains your position and provides a good
argument. Use at least one practical example to illustrate what you have learned about communication
through your research.
Sample topics might be:

Make sure your essay is well organized with an introduction and a conclusion. Use the APA style
guidelines for the essay and its references. The total length must be at least 2000 words.
