A key concept taught in class which attributes appropriate rationale to this advice is encoding. In the same example, Marie mentally decodes, “the act of assigning meaning to nonverbal symbols” (Duck, S., & McMahan, D. T., 2018), Rocky’s actions in order to derive a suspected cause for his behavior. Through encoding, however, Rocky can effectively blend nonverbal and verbal communication in order to permit [Marie] proper interpretation of what he orally states in comparison to the message his nonverbal signals may imply (Duck, S., & McMahan, D. T., 2018). Encoding is a pivotal skill to master in order to achieve effective communication strategies. This process further improves our relational communication due to the fact that it awards an individual(s) engaged in conversation with another [others] the knowledge and ability to appropriately distinguish the true intent behind one’s actions and behavior from the signals their nonverbal cues may misleadingly convey.

because he angered the gods. To circumcisers like Atanga, “cutting is a god” and the practice is missed because it used to represent a relationship with the gods based on “taking and giving, mutual attention, care, and accountability” (Hodžić 2016). The severing of this relationship which the ending of cutting causes, could have dire consequences, as demonstrated by Atanga’s story. Another main argument in this book is that although it is often presumed that anti-FGM NGOs lack cultural knowledge, they are actually quite knowledgeable and are instead refusing to translate “popular and official notions about health and harm” (Hodžić 2016).
In the movie Inside Out everything essentially takes place inside the mind of an eleven year old girl, Riley. Riley is guided by her emotions of joy, sadness, anger, fear, and disgust. These five core human emotions attempt to advise and navigate her through her everyday life. The emotions and Riley display many nonverbal cues throughout the movie which portray how they are feeling. Watching this movie helped me learn how effective the communication between the characters is, what advice I would give to Riley if I were put in a similar situation, and how this advice is rooted in nonverbal communication.
Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close is a novel about a nine-year-old boy named Oskar who is sent on a journey to solve a puzzle made by his late father.

Section Two: The woman showed a lot more nonverbal interaction then the men. Although the men’s actions may have been easier to assume because their actions were so exaggerated, the woman were the ones who did things more often, however more subtly. I noticed that the men were more apt to stay with the movements they had done, whereas if one woman check her phone, the other would, if one woman leaned in so would the other. I felt as though the environment I watched the two different groups may have played a role in the difference of communication efforts between the men and the woman.
