Read all of the directions for Part I and Part II carefully before you start your work.
Part I.
Complete the following survey titled: “COM100: Experiencing Effective Group Communication ” with two
different people. This survey asks questions about group communication norms for groups in specific group
communication situations they have participated in or observed and about the stages of group development of these
groups. Try to choose people who have had different group experiences, including workplace groups who have
meetings together, and social groups or clubs who have meetings together, etc. This could also include study groups
who have meetings together. Ask each person the following survey questions and take notes on their answers.
Note: The experiences your interviewees discuss with you must be group communication situations where the group
members are spending time together, talking with all of the members of the group, in order to accomplish a group goal.
This usually occurs in a meeting. Training and teaching situations are not usually considered group communication
situations.
The survey answers do not need to be individually submitted, but the information from the surveys should be
summarized and directly included in your answers to the questions in Part II; information from the lesson and the
textbook should also be included.
COM100: Experiencing Effective Group Communication Survey

interviewee: What is one group communication situation you have participated in where the group used effective
group communication? (Pay special attention to how your interviewee defines effective group communication.)

3. Ask your interviewee: What are two or three group communication norms of the group?
4. Ask your interviewee: How does (or did) the group enforce the group communication norms? What happens
when a group member ignores or violates a group communication norm? Please give a specific example.
5. Share the concept of structures of small groups. See Figure 13.1 from Chapter 13.1 Understanding Small Groups
with your interviewee.
6. Ask your interviewee: What can you tell me about evidence of any of the structures of group communication the
group was involved in? What are some behaviors that contribute to their group communication pattern? Was the
structure intentional? Tell me about one or two of the communication behaviors showing evidence the group was
involved in this structure of group communication
7. Explain the stages of group and team development with the person you are surveying. Ask your interviewee:
What stage do you think your group is in? Why?
8. Explain the concept of group cohesion during group communication. Ask your interviewee:
How committed do they think the group members are to the goals of the group and to having effective group
communication when the group is together in a specific group communication situation Why?
9. Ask your interviewee: What can you tell me about evidence of any of the group communication behaviors that
demonstrate conflict and conflict resolution in group communication that is necessary for the problem solving
and group relationships that enable the group to accomplish the group’s goal? Tell me about one to two of these
behaviors.
Note: The survey answers do not need to be submitted, but the information from the surveys and important concepts
from the lesson should be included in your answers. Also, ask yourself the same survey questions. What kind of group
communication can you reflect on from your own experiences?
Part II.

broken by one of these groups in a specific group communication.
3. How did group cohesion or the lack of group cohesion affect the enforcement of group communication norms in
the groups in your surveys? Refer back to your lesson and textbook regarding these concepts, and give specific
examples from the groups and the group communication situations in your surveys incorporating these terms.

communication that is occurring in their group communication situations? Use specific examples and concepts
from the lesson to justify your answer.
