Paper 2 Assignment 2: (RA 2): Communication Report
For this assignment, you have to take on the role of a human services administrator charged by the Department of Health with the responsibility of communicating to various constituencies about the recent outbreak of a communicable disease within a specific community. You will now need to write three communication messages appropriate to the following groups-youths, parents, and medical staff-one communication message per group.
Part A
Part A: Analysis Plan
• Explain what media and forms of communication (at least one of which will be verbal) you would employ to communicate with each group-youths, parents, and medical staff-that will be most effective with these audiences.
• Identify two to three conflicts that could potentially arise with any one of the constituents and the strategies you would employ to resolve the conflicts.
• Prioritize and explain the most pertinent aspects of the message to be conveyed to each group.
Part B: Communication Memos
• Compose in detail three different communication messages that appropriately match each group of recipients-youths, parents, and medical staff-regarding the recent outbreak of the communicable disease. One of the messages should be a script for a verbal communication. Consider the following aspects when composing your messages-the recipient, the context, the content, and delivery variables.
Part C: Application of Theory
• Explain which communication theories you applied to the situation that influenced your approach to handling this problem.
