Humanities Homework Help

Think about some of your friends and family members. Who likes to solicit your feedback on any issue they are facing? Who likes to check in regularly even when nothing major is going on? Who likes you to give them options when they are in need? Who prefers that you only listen? Who enjoys long phone calls? Who prefers short texts? All people have different communication needs and preferences. This is also true of yourself as a doctoral writer. In this Discussion, you will reflect on your needs and how a communication plan could help you meet those.

To Prepare:

• Review the Learning Resources and Course Announcement.
• Note that Discussions in the PhD program are areas for sharing ideas, reflecting on current research, and building community. Therefore, your grade, and the evaluation of your Discussion, will be based on the content and quality of your ideas. Note that APA style citations, references, and standard punctuation will not be assessed or graded. Please focus on shaping your ideas and supporting your claims with examples and research when applicable. Note that every course has its own standards and requirements, so it is important to always check those requirements for each course and each assignment.
• Respond to all bullet points in the prompt.
• Note that this Discussion requires you to respond over the course of 3 weeks.
