Fukuoka JALT:

Understanding Nonverbal Communication

Date: Saturday, February 18th, 2006 Time: 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Speaker: Fred Anderson, Siebold University of Nagasaki

Description:
Nonverbal communication is estimated to account for as much as 70 per cent of what we communicate in face-to-face interaction. However, it is more difficult to analyze than verbal communication, and tends to be more subconscious, and thus is often more difficult to come to grips with. In this lecture/workshop, Dr. Anderson will examine various aspects of nonverbal communication, including the use of gestures, space, time and other aspects, and consider how it contrasts with (or complements) verbal communication. We will also discuss possible ways of integrating the study of nonverbal communication into the foreign language curriculum.
