Chapter 10 CMC in PR, by Wright & Webb

Turner and Reinsch’s chapter outline the roles of multicommunication through the use of media or devices the practice of participating in one or more speech events, both asynchronous and synchronous. Multicommunication exhibits orientation of polychromic communication and monochromic activity.  Yet Turner and Reinsch argue that traditional research about muliticommunication and new trends in polychromic research aren’t exactly alike because the former was measuring the accomplishing of goals in a stated time period, while the latter deals with managing dialogue or muti-tasking for someone else’s needs.  The communication process has several different parts; interpretation, goals, planning, enactments, review. Yet unspoken rules have been honed over the communication exchanges about being efficient about time or sharing the meaning or the message.

My thoughts.

I witness people everyday being more efficient with their lives, yet many do not know when too much is being expected of themselves so they add more goals in their daily routines, then complain about it not getting things accomplished. I think as time goes on multicommunication as well as multi tasking will become aligned as younger generations become more accustomed to utilizing technology for anti-procrastination endeavors or instant verbiage. People have to realize that the clock will always be a constant no matter how technology we use in our daily routines

Current events

The artroom is a mulitcommunicational area of instruction, I provide outline for a lesson, students verbalize during production of their art and demonstrate social or semblance communal order with each other. I have actually seen an increase with relation to younger students multitasking over the past decade. Many students can do or comprehend multiple functions in the art classroom. Many students complete three tasks in this daily art room process: talk, physio motor dexterity, listening to second party talk, and interpreting third party conversations.  Albeit they still continually suffer from information overload and need organization, I think something has risen from the cognitive space in the brain to facilitate diverse patterns of sentience.
