October 26, 2007, Newsletter Issue #159: Online Learning - Communication Skills

Tip of the Week

It can be intimidating to speak into a microphone in a video or conference call, but your communication skills are an important part of any assignment--on the job, at home, and at school. Distance learning provides the opportunity to enhance these skills. Pay careful attention to instructions and be certain that you understand what is being asked. It often helps to develop a brief outline before responding to questions whether they are submitted in writing, via e-mail, orally or on video/audio tape. Organization, grammar, and the appropriate style are important whichever medium you choose.
