What Does Your Dream Home Look Like? READ ALL DIRECTIONS
No unread replies.No replies.
After learning about how the environment affects our communication, I want you to do a little dreaming by thinking about and examining your ideal house plans. Some of you may be asking, “what does a house plan have to do with communication?” But I bet some of you already know. This activity demonstrates an intersection of intentional and unintentional consequences of the choices we make regarding preferred space. By looking at house plans, you can visualize your own communication preferences.
We will conduct this forum in a similar way to how we conducted the facial expression forum. You will post a picture of your ideal home, answer a few questions, and then respond to your classmates choice of dream homes. Follow the directions below:
DIRECTIONS: Visit this website: www.dreamhomesource.com (Links to an external site.). Play around on the website and find a house plan that represents your ‘dream home’. We’re looking for the interior plans, not the exterior. When you find the plan you like, right click on the plan and then ‘save image as’. You can save that picture on your computer. Then in the forum, post the picture of your dream house the same way you posted a picture of your facial expression.
Once you’ve posted the picture, answer these questions:
1. What are the features that make this house your ‘dream home’?
2. Describe how the arrangement of the rooms and hallways will affect communication between the people living there.
3. How might the design of the house impact the formality/informality of communication?What Does Your Dream Home Look Like? READ ALL DIRECTIONS
