Consider what you learned about the significance of effective mediated communication. With so much communication occurring on-line today – in fact, it’s not unusual to find people in adjacent offices using email to communicate to one another – what are some ways to ensure your message is received as it was intended?

Begin your discussion by reading your assigned chapter and conducting additional research in the Keiser University Online Library on the significance of effective mediated communication. Share what you learned by synthesizing your research into your own words and citing your sources. At the minimum, you should cite your textbook and one additional scholarly source.

Next, offer a personal connection by discussing ways to ensure the message you are sending via mediated channels is received as it was intended. Develop your examples and supporting evidence thoroughly.

Complete your discussion by exploring how you might use the knowledge from this topic in your future professional and personal communication.

NOTE: Remember that your discussion response must include the following:

A reflection on the concept we are discussing. Give us a summary of things you learned about this concept from your assigned chapter readings and additional scholarly research.

A thorough example/discussion to support your reflection.

A final statement that tells us what you take away from this week’s lesson.

Properly formatted in-text citations and references.

Strong grammar, spelling, and mechanics.

In total, your discussion should be at least 350 words.
