Aims and Objectives

To make the students aware of the dynamics of interpersonal communication, its complexity and stakes. To enable them to gradually improve their ability to communicate.

At the end of the course, students will be able to describe and criticize the main models and theories of communication and to establish links with their future professional practice.

Description

The 1st part of the course (30h) is mostly theoretical. It focuses on two main areas: theories of transmission and theories of relationship. This section addresses the following content: definitions of communication, discovery and critical analysis of various models of communication, axioms of interpersonal communication, reflections about the educator's job, approach to the code concept through various authors from Palo Alto, discovery of the principles of negotiation.

The 2nd part of the course (15h) is mainly based on practice, on a variety of exercises that define and influence the process of interaction (feedback, context, coding, interpretation...)
