To complete this assignment, you should write a 600 \u2013 900 word essay addressing the questions below. You<\/p>\n

refer to specific course content and give examples to demonstrate your understanding.<\/p>\n

2. Describe in detail how you violated the nonverbal norm. Describe what you did, with whom, and where.<\/p>\n
(Remember: the violation should\u2019ve occurred at least five times with five different people.) Be specific<\/p>\n
in explaining how your actions were in violation of society\u2019s expectations.<\/p>\n
3. Describe the specific nonverbal behaviors that were part of others\u2019 responses and discuss whether the<\/p>\n

4. Broadly, explain how you felt violating these norms. Did it make you uncomfortable? Why or why not?<\/p>\n
