In order to understand someone you have to see that person’s perspective and when trying to interview one person or a large group of people, that can only be done if the interview is in-depth. As the article says, “Often, deeper understandings are developed through the dialogue of long, in-depth interviews, as interviewer and participant ‘coconstruct’ meaning” (pg. 124). I really enjoyed how this article went into full detail about the many types of
2. Effective communication can also affect the relationship between colleagues and other practitioners, as they are able to easily pass on vital information regarding the service user which can improve the quality of their care. As well as this, the relationship between colleagues and practitioners remains professional when the use of slang and jargon is avoided. Aiii. Identify three ways of finding out the communication and language needs of an individual.
It is a process by which two or more people exchange ideas, facts, feelings or impressions in ways that each gains a common understanding of the message. We need to build relationships with the service users that we work with, their families and our colleagues to enable us to work effectively. Relationships and communication skills are closely linked, as good communication will help to build good relationships. Relationships are influenced by the way we communicate this not only includes the language we use and how we listen to others but also our body language, gestures and facial expressions. If we do not communicate well with either a colleague or service user this could affect the way we work, as it could cause an atmosphere or tension in the work environment.
The basic communication principle I apply to my personal life experience is knowing my audience and communicating a little at a time. I believe by knowing and interacting with a person before I just say what’s on my mind.I believe by knowing the person’s attitude and belief will help me be better prepared to answer questions they might want to ask me whenever we strike up a conversation. I also feel the results these results are a accurate description of my personality and communication style. I am a introverted person and I see this plays a factor when I talk to strangers. Yet, I do know how important and how good it can feel to connect with someone new.
Interpretivists favour this method, as they can get more detailed answers from the pupils. It is a flexible method that allows the interviewer to gain insight into why subcultures develop. This would be good when interviewing pupils from pro and anti-school subcultures, as they can speak about their own experiences, and what is important to them. Unstructured interviews can also be carried out in
These modalities are also known as representational systems (rep systems) as they are the primary ways we represent, code, store and give meaning or language (linguistic) to our experiences. If you ascertain your client’s modality you can talk to them in a way that they will feel most comfortable because a person will find one of the senses easier to imagine and can therefor create their own comfort zone. Kinaesthetic (feeling) Kinaesthetic imagery can be further divided into, sense of touch, temperature, movement, and feelings. When you’re giving a demonstration, the people who always ask you to demonstrate on them so they can feel the technique, are very likely to be kinaesthetic learners. Kinaesthetically oriented people want to get lots of hands-on experience so they can feel how something is done.

Task B Why is reflective practice important? Reflective practice is important as it allows us to build on our strengths and identify our weaknesses. In doing this we can develop ourselves further and in turn this will reflect on the support we give to our colleagues’ and service users. Also by assessing our actions and judgements we can gain more knowledge and be receptive to different strategies or approaches. Overlooking an event afterwards and questioning yourself not as a criticism but in a way to develop yourself further.
“To understand their current lives, it was necessary to learn how they got started in life, the various processes involved in their continued prostitution careers, the link between prostitution and drug use, the women's interactions with their pimps and customers, and the impact of the AIDS epidemic and increasing violence on their experiences.” (Sterk, Claire E., p.35, from Conformity and Conflicts: Readings in Cultural Anthropology) Claire Sterk is an anthropologist who engaged in a continuous study of prostitutes in Atlanta metropolitan area and New York City. Her research had required her to introduce and engage herself and discover the places where her informants worked and hung out. She had develop bonds and carry on unlimited interviews that allowed informants to show her their lives. Her research covers women who work in the lower line of the prostitution world. These women worked in the streets at night time, in hotels and other public settings known for prostitution activity and in a much less public settings for drug-use prostitutes like a crack house, which might be someone's apartment.
One can find more information about this stage of development of the American society from primary sources. Nannie Alderson (1942) describes the life of American women in the small towns of the West in her book A Bride Goes West. Some of the experts from the book point out to significant changes in the American people’s minds regarding the role that women played in society. In her book, Alderson also describes the reverse side of free relations and feminization. She writes, “Two-thirds of the women [engaged in prostitution] died young from sexually transmitted diseases, botched abortions, alcohol abuse, narcotics abuse, suicide, or murders.” The same shift in public mind regarding the family values is described in Galen’s Epitaph on a Tombstone.
