Abstract

Interviewing is an essential skill in gathering information, getting a job, selecting companies to perform work, interacting with health care specialists, or persuading people. Interviewing Practices is designed to prepare students for these challenges. Students will learn effective verbal and nonverbal communication skills in dyadic situations as well as gain content and organizational knowledge about interview settings. The course emphasizes how to properly open and close an interview; how to form properly worded, legal questions; and how to organize these questions into useful schedules. This information is applied to various types of interview situations such as those involving information gathering, employment, persuasive, counseling, and health care. In addition, a model of communication and theories of communication are presented to explain interviewing practices. Please note that all course materials and content are provided in the IMS Common Cartridge (IMSCC) format. The content can be accessed by opening the IMSCC file using your organization's Learning Management System application (these include Blackboard, D2L, Canvas etc.). Additional information about accessing Common Cartridge files can be found on the IMS Global Web site: http://www.imsglobal.org/cc. Future plans for the Skills Commons Web site include a feature that will allow users to view and download course content that is provided in the IMSCC format.
