Amy Anderson's Nonverbal Microaggressions Lecture

Overview

I teach communication studies courses. One of the lessons that we cover is nonverbal communication. I would include this PPT and assignment as part of the nonverbal communication section of the course. 

I really enjoyed learning about microaggressions and felt that the information was important to include in my communication courses. I am hoping that this material will bring awareness about nonverbal microaggressions so that students can better learn how their nonverbal communication, and specifically how their nonverbal microaggressions are impacting others. 

I believe that this information could be used in conjunction with other topics, or it can stand alone. The reflection journal includes a rubric, but that could be adjusted to meet the needs of the professor. The assignment value could also be adjusted as well.
