About this title

Synopsis

Student will relate

Teachers already know that the interpersonal communication course is among the most interesting, relevant and life-changing courses a student can take. But many texts fail to directly connect the core ideas in the field to students’ own relationships with friends, family, and coworkers. It’s Interpersonal puts students at the centre of its approach. Written in a friendly, conversational and approachable style and filled with relatable examples, pop culture references and innovative, engaging pedagogy―including InQuizitive, an interactive, adaptive learning tool―It’s Interpersonal motivates students to improve their communication skills and to apply the course’s content to their own lives.
