The Characteristics of Nonverbal Communication

Question 2 • *CR Speech (ELECTIVE, 1 semester, E6001OX)

“Hey-I dropped an application off last week and was wondering if anyone had a chance to look over it yet. Get back to me, please.”What is the Internet communication problem in the email above?

Answer
A
poor spelling
B
all capital letters
C
ignoring social conventions
D
forwarding emails

Explanation

The email uses an overly casual, demanding tone: “Get back to me, please” can sound abrupt in a professional message. This is a problem with ignoring social conventions, such as using a polite and appropriate tone when following up on an application. The issue is not spelling, capitalization, or forwarding.
