Student Posts

As we talk about communication, students are exploring the Challenger Disaster and identifying the ways in which communication played a role.

John's post talks about how sad it is to know that the disaster could have been prevented. Jess recalls memories of the day the teacher die

Can a memo crash a spaceship? Sure.

If the most important information in a memo is placed on the last page and in the last paragraph, the audience will fail to see its importance.

Memos are one page. The most important information should come first.

In the case of the Challenger, lives depended on communication, and, sadly, communication fell apart as people tried to position themselves politically.
