Reflect & Relate
Description
Current, inclusive, and authoritative, Reflect & Relate, Sixth Edition, has set the new standard for interpersonal communication texts. Steve McCornack and Kelly Morrison, both distinguished scholars and award-winning teachers, draw on their twenty-five years of classroom experience to connect classic and current communication theory and research to the actual lives of todays students.
For the sixth edition, the authors built on their leading gender coverage by partnering with an advisory board of culturally responsive-sustaining pedagogy leaders to create an even more inclusive text that models for and guides students in culturally self-aware and inclusive communication. The revision features over 300 new scholarly citations, and responds to the real and growing interpersonal challenges students currently face: how to form positive relationships to support health and wellness, within increasingly online contexts, and with people who have a variety of backgrounds, abilities, and experiences. Additionally, coverage of mediated communication-its advantages, as well as its challenges-has been thoroughly updated to support students in todays digital world.
Achieve for Reflect & Relate includes the full e-book along with powerful assessments, a full video library, LearningCurve adaptive quizzing, and Making Relationship Choices video activities to support you and your students-whether you are teaching face-to-face or online, synchronously or asynchronously.
New foundational and AI skills activities. Achieve features a suite of new interactive student activities focused on mastering skills critical to academic and professional success, as well as student activities geared toward giving students a hands-on understanding of artificial intelligence, including responsible usage and ways to ethically incorporate AI into speech development.
