What topics would you like to learn within the context of intrapersonal communication and/or interpersonal communication topics? Some of the broad strokes we will explore: self, perception; verbal and nonverbal communication (personal energy); emotions (gift of fear, emotional intelligence); listening to self/other (empathic listening, nexting, and other skills); climate, conflict, and intimate relationships...
OK... your turn. Any personal requests?

conflict control with close-interpersonal relationships, such as roommate, co-workers, and so forth.
How to communicate personal feelings to others without being afraid, ways to ask for what you want even if it's a risk, How to become a better public speaker, and how to read people's emotions and feelings.
I would like to explore how to effectively communicate with authority figures such as bosses, landlords, and even perhaps my parents. I would like to be able to relay my ideas with confidence and be able to stand firmly by them even when being challenged without sounding aggressive, defensive, and negatively argumentative.
I want to work on letting people know how I really feel, instead of telling them what they want to hear so i don't hurt their feeling.
I would really like to work on my eye contact during communication. I want to be able to use eye contact during class presentations and on, one on one conversations with authority figures.
I'd like to learn how to stop second guessing myself every single time I make a decision. I would also like to work on the having the confidence to know that decision, whatever it my be is the right one.
Just on how to become a better leader. And maybe some help with public speaking.
Why we do what we do and why we act differently in certain situations? Why we think the way we do?

I would like to learn more about fear, and what causes our specific fears. Also, I think that it would be interesting to learn more about intimate relationships. We all have been, are in, or one day will be in an intimate relationship. I believe that this topic would reach many students in our class.
How to communicate my thoughts and feelings to people without holing back in fear of a conflict arising. A few people suggested how to communicate with authority figures, which I think would always be very useful.
How about the racial conflict's that exist, maybe some kind of multi-cultural race conflic relationship communication skills.
I would like to learn about all of the suggestions. Especially how to express my self to others. I would also like to learn more about how to have intimate relationships with others and open up to people.
I am interested in learning why I cannot let go of uncomfortable feelings and anger. Change is the most important aspect of my life and one huge reason why I am seeking out education. I am hoping that through this path of life I can open mind and accept, create, and forgive.
Thanks Skye
