Competency #1 Communication


Competency #1 Communication
Communication happens on several levels that starts in the organic brain and is formatted for the real world by the use of technology. A college education helps us to format ideas into Word on the computer to present our ideas and thoughts to others. Other examples include but are not limited to:
· Excel
· Video
· PowerPoint
· Adobe CS3
Learning to apply this college learned knowledge to post graduate life involves thoughts originating in the brain. A culmination of ideas based on my personal traditions of Creation Stories formatted into a computer program like PowerPoint and posted on the web for the global population to see. As it was in the past, only those fortunate enough to be within earshot would be able to listen to these stories, and then the imagination would come onto play to fill out the story in ones own mind. Everyone saw something different. Whereas with a computer program like PowerPoint, people see and hear only what the author wants them to and it is spread out across the globe in an instant so it is possible to reach millions of people at any given moment. Yes, the competency of communication is an essential one to master and is so much better when multi-media are used.

I find this very interesting and like the fact that stories can be shared to a larger audience via the World Wide Web, though even with illustrations, some degree of meaning might be lost as compared to traditional oral teachings in the past.
