Communicate effectively in more than one language to function in a variety of situations.

Description

Effective communication is vital in learning another language. The three main areas within communication that need to be addressed are interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational.

Interpersonal Communication is spontaneous, unrehearsed, two-way communication through listening, speaking, reading, signing, facial expressions, and body language in the target language such as texting, conversation, letters, etc. Both parties negotiate meaning and ask for clarification. The learner will understand and will also be understood.

Interpretive Communication is one-way communication through listening, reading, or viewing in which the learner engages with a variety of print and non-print materials, including multimedia, visual actions, and images that convey meaning. The learner will extract meaning and use the information for personal or community enrichment.

Presentational Communication is the polished, edited, rehearsed, or impromptu presentation of information in the target language such as presenting original skits, practiced speeches, written or oral stories, essays, etc. The learner will present information to an audience of readers, listeners, or viewers.
