How we listen and the importance of listening

The textbook in chapter one pages 12-16 explains the Worthington Fitch-Hauser model of listening: listening MATERRS model. 

 locate one video clip of at least 60 seconds in length on youtube.com or another accessible site on the internet that you believe demonstrates at least four of the seven parts of the model

You will need to copy the URL or web address for the video into your submission (the web link). 

Summarize the video you choose to use in about a paragraph.  

After the summary, write about  3-4 sentences each on at least four model parts (listed below) that you believe are illustrated in your video clip choice. 

Stages of the listening model:

Mental stimulus – intentionally attending to a noise or stimulus

Awareness – beginning the mental sorting process, which can be adversely impacted by a high cognitive load such as multitasking

Translation – processing the message rationally, emotionally, or both

Evaluation – using existing frameworks for understanding to connect the message to one’s existing knowledge

Recall – storing the message in working memory and possibly long-term memory as well

Response – deciding how to respond

Staying connected & motivated – building relationships, evaluating and perhaps changing one’s own frameworks for understanding future listening events, maintaining motivation to listen, and challenging one’s own personal biases

Finally, watch the video below and write a one paragraph response including at least three ideas or points made in the presentation. It can include a summary of the video and whether you agree or disagree with the points made
