CCC Part 8: Evaluating Your Progress Part 8 is where you will evaluate the impact of the project as it relates to interpersonal communication and the terminal course objectives (TCOs). It is important here that you clearly demonstrate your understanding of many of the course concepts through application to your course project.

CCC Part 8: Evaluating Your Progress

Back to Top

Remember that your patterns for communicating interpersonally have been developed over many years. Therefore, you should be neither surprised nor discouraged to find that changing your interpersonal communication behavior takes time. In order for you to take this project to its fullest potential, you may need to continue to modify, implement, and reinforce these new behaviors for far longer than the duration of the project. It is possible, however, to modify the way you communicate, and because the payoff is improvement to our communication and relationship outcomes, changing interpersonal communication is worth the effort. After you have implemented your target behaviors for about two weeks, write a final evaluation addressing the following: Deliverables for Part 8

8A. What was the course material that suggests that this particular communication behavior was an appropriate target for change? Be specific; apply material from the text, lecture, TCOs, and so forth.

8B. Consider the implementation of your new behaviors in Part 7. Which of your behaviors particularly please you? What was the course material that suggests that this new communication behavior is a positive change? Be specific; apply material from the text, lecture, TCOs, and so forth.

8C. Consider the implementation of your new behaviors in Part 7. Were there any situations in which you were dissatisfied with your approach to improving your interpersonal communication? What was the course material that suggests that this particular communication behavior continues to be less than ideal? Be specific; apply material from the text, lecture, TCOs, and so forth. If you were not dissatisfied with your approach, why do you think this happened?

8D. Consider the implementation of your new behaviors in Part 7. What changes would you still like to make? What was the course material that suggests that this modification would complement or enhance your communication outcomes? Be specific; apply material from the text, lecture, TCOs, and so forth.

8E. Consider the entire course project. How have your interpersonal relationships changed as a result of this project? What is the course material that suggests that these particular relationship changes are positive or negative? Be specific; apply material from the text, lecture, TCOs, and so forth.
