Slide 1
Early fossil records suggest that the Yangtze River Dolphin came about 25 million years ago, and made its way to the Yangtze 20 million years ago, where it is considered an endemic species.
The Yangtze River dolphin is known by many names. In Chinese, it is known as the Baijie which translates to “White dolphin”, since it has pale blue grey skin which lightens as it ages. In Chinese folklore, the Baijie also protects fishermen as the “Goddess of the River”. Once loved, it was plentiful in the Yangtze river. In the 1950s, there used to be about 6,000 dolphins. Then in the 1980s, the population reduced to 400. Then since 2006, this species was declared functionally extinct. So, why does it matter that this species is gone?
Slide 2
Well, the extinction of the Yangtze River Dolphin is biggest cetacean species extinction of our time. In addition, it highlights the struggle of keeping freshwater resources in Asia. The Yangtze is not only the third longest river in the world, but also home to over half of China’s total plant and animal species. So the death of this dolphin might be our warning bell to save other species from extinction.
Slide 4
The Yangtze River Dolphin is only one in its family Lipodae, and it’s one out of four dolphin families which reside in shallow freshwater rivers.
Slide 5
The dolphin’s got a long beak with 35 blunt teeth to snack on small fish. It’s a carnivore. Like many other dolphins, it communicates through clicks and whistles, which is why it’s got this hole in it’s head. They are social, living in pods from 3 to 7 individuals. However, they are very shy around humans -- which makes it hard for us to perform research on them.
Slide 6
They tend to breed in the months of February through April. As mammals, they have live birth and have a gestation period of 10 months. They’re quite small when born, about 32 to 35 inches but grow up to be as big as 8 feet long. They reach sexual maturity around 6 to 8 years and having a birthing interval of 2 years.
Slide 7
The Yangtze dolphin normally swims 19 to 25 mph, but can go up to 37 mph when threatened. It has poor eyesight in the murky water of the Yangtze, so it relies on echolocation (biosonar) and touch with it’s long thin beak to find small fish to eat. Unfortunately, baijie have been known to have poor navigation, running into boat motors and killing themselves.
Slide 8-9
Which brings us to this point. Half of all known dolphin killings in the 1970s and 1980s were attributed to collisions with motor boats and accidental illegal fishing activities like dynamite fishing, drag netting and electric fishing.

Week 4 Assignment 2
Self-assessment of Communication Skills
As a student studying healthcare administration and leadership in healthcare, you should be developing your own personal development plan to include a personal assessment of your communication skills.
Listening is an integral part of the communication process. Communication in the healthcare setting is vital. This includes communication between doctors and patients, doctors and nurses, clinicians and administrators, and so on.
Based on your learning, answer the following questions:
· Which topic of conversation makes you uncomfortable? What is the topic? Do you know why you find it difficult to talk about this topic?
<Enter your response here.>
· What do you do when you become uncomfortable during a conversation? Do you withdraw? Do you try to change the topic? Do you speak louder or softer? Do you begin to gesticulate?
<Enter your response here.>
· Have you had an occasion to talk to a very persuasive or very aggressive person? If you and this person hold different opinions, can you hold to your position? Are you easily “led” in a conversation?
<Enter your response here.>
· Are you flexible in a conversation? If a comment made by someone takes the conversation in an unexpected direction, can you adjust quickly? Can you assimilate new information, reassess your position, and continue the conversation?
<Enter your response here.>
· When entering into a conversation, do you attempt to eliminate potential distractions and interruptions?
<Enter your response here.>
· Do you consciously avoid having important conversations in high traffic public areas where environmental distractions are likely possible? Why?
<Enter your response here.>
· Do you put your cell phone in the silence mode when you are likely to have conversations? Why?
<Enter your response here.>
· Do you listen without interruption and sufficiently control the conversation to minimize interruption? Why?
<Enter your response here.>
· When engaged in a conversation, do you give your undivided attention to the matters being discussed? Why?
<Enter your response here.>
· When engaged in discussion, do you develop reflective questions pertinent to the conversation? Why?
<Enter your response here.>
· When engaged in discussion, do you make conscious eye contact? Why?
<Enter your response here.>
· When involved in conversations, are you cognizant of body language, both the individual you are conversing with and your own? Why?
<Enter your response here.>
· Do you have an understanding of body language gestures and posturing?
<Enter your response here.>
In a self-assessment summary, provide a list of your communication strengths and weaknesses. Also, provide a plan to address the weaknesses identified.
