6. Directions:
Using an application such as Microsoft Word, based on your
reading and supplemental research please
complete the project as outlined above. Each Deliverable is to
be uploaded to the Final Project dropbox
by the due date (see syllabus). All three Deliverables are to be
posted to the same dropbox. You may
re-submit a Deliverable if your professor offers the opportunity
in the feedback.
Grading:
The Final Project is worth 100 raw points (33, 33 and 34 points
respectively for each of the three
Deliverables). However, as with other course work the project
is weighted. The project is weighted at
20%, which means it is worth 20% of your final grade.
Remember Spelling, Grammar and the proper
construction of the paper count as much as adequately
addressing the research questions!

Short Answer Assignment
Answer the following four questions using 200 to 250 words for
each response (for a total of 800 words). You must use course
material to support your work and earn the most points. You
will score little to no points for not using course material. Each
question is worth one point and there is additional scoring for
proper grammar and citations for a total of five points. The
combined length of the entire exam can be no more than two
pages.
a. Describe one of the following functions of language from
Bevan and Sole (2014, Section 4.1):
· Serve as an abstraction of reality
· Sustain and transmit culture
· Express imagination and creativity
· Express confirming and disconfirming messages
Then, share an example that illustrates how this function is
demonstrated in a hypothetical communication exchange and
explain its significance.
b. Describe one of the following functions of nonverbal
communication from Bevan and Sole (Section 4.2).
· Managing your impressions and identities
· Managing and interpreting your relationships
· Regulating the flow of interactions
· Engaging in and detecting messages of emotion, influence, and
deception
Then, share an example that illustrates how this function is

20. demonstrated in a hypothetical communication exchange.
c. Using Bevan and Sole (2014), explain how biased language
impacts attitudes, behaviors, and perception. Be sure to spend
some time on each element and explain the significance of
biased language overall.
d. Watch at least the first 10 minutes of the following video
titled Digital Communication Skills: Dos and Don’ts. Based on
this and Bevan and Sole, what are two key points we need to be
aware of in relation to computer mediated communication. How
can we use this information to become better communicators?
