POLY Speaking

"Communication is Not Simple" I agree unequivocally with this sayings. Well if you were to ask me how I found human communication is? This will be my answer to you. Perhaps this will be the most perfect phrase n conclusion that comes into my mind after attending few classes for this subject.

I can clearly remember that in our first class for human com, the first question that Mr.Murali (our human com lecturer) ask us was "What you think Human Com is?" and "What you expect to learn from this subject?". Well, frankly speaking, I really have no idea what human com is about at the beginning. But from the name of this subject, I can tell that it must be something to do with communication between human being. However, I don't think this is a convincing answer ==

"Communication refers to the process of human beings responding to the symbolic behavior of other persons. It is a continuous and ongoing process." I think this will be the best interpretation for the phrase, communication. Just simply because I got this from the text book. Wakaka ^^

Well as this is just the beginning of the semester, there are many friends that come by and ask me what are my electives. And when i said that human com is one of my electives, the first respond they will give me is always the same, which is "How come ar?!" Perhaps everyone will have the perception that communication need not to be trained and courses regarding this is unnecessary. Moreover, they will think that a good communicators can be born naturally with the intelligence and it is easy to achieve the goal as a good communicators. Well, I would calssify this perceptions as "Misconception of Communication".

However after being exposed to this subject, I learnt that communication among people are fundamental. We need to know the right way to communicate and to deliver our message to others in order to avoid misunderstanding and conflicts in communication. And kindly believe me, there are much more knowledge to be learnt beneath communication. You would never know that this subject can be such interesting and such useful to be applied in our daily life, unless you have gone through this 3 and 1/2 month course, costing $1400, which is really valuable and worthful.

Hmm, well thats all I have for my very first post in this blog. Hopefully it is informative enough and had provide everyone with some knowledge about what human communication actually is. I will be back soon by this week again for my second post. Take care and good luck to everyone ^^

P/s: To all of my friends that have misconception of communication, I would like to say that "Lets make a deal! I can promise you that by the end of this semester, I will give you a FOC private lecture session and I will definitely change your point of view about communication!" By that time, kindly address me as Miss Poly. Your private human communication home tutor. Haha ^^
