WU Impact of Group Behavior Discussion
Group polarization can be defined as the process that can occur after group interaction, when an initial group attitude (e.g., ?Our company is the best at providing Service B in this community?) becomes more extreme (e.g., ?Our company is the best at providing Service B in this entire region?). Group polarization may be particularly likely when the issue at hand is deemed particularly ?important? (Crisp & Turner, 2007, p. 169).Groupthink is considered a more extreme version of group polarization and refers to decreased flexibility in group processing and can, in turn, lead to decreases in group productivity. This has never been more evident than in the space shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986, when Challenger exploded in mid-flight. In this case, evidence suggests that groupthink played a major role in this event. For this Discussion, review this week?s Learning Resources. Pay particular attention to the impact of groupthink and group polarization. In addition, using the Walden Library, research alternatives to groupthink and group polarization and select an article that discusses an alternative.With these thoughts in mind:Post by Day 4 a description of a situation in which you experienced or observed negative consequences resulting from groupthink or group polarization. Then describe two consequences as a result of groupthink or group polarization in your example. Finally, using an article from the current literature, explain how one alternative to groupthink or group polarization could have been used in that situation.References: Crisp, R. J., & Turner, R. N.

Dialogue Fictional Writing
Write a scene between two characters almost having a big fight, but not quite. Have the real tension be about something bigger than the trivial issue at hand. E.g., it’s not really about the remote control but rather about control and being remote and power and who has it in the relationship.” TIPS: “Begin the dialogue of each new speaker as a new paragraph.””Notice that punctuation goes inside the quotation marks.””Avoid using the name of the person being spoken to in dialogue?it doesn’t sound conversational.”Dialogue Tips1. Have your characters speak no more than three sentences at a time?unless you have good reason to do otherwise.2. Dialogue is more interesting when characters are saying no to each other.3. Keep exposition out of dialogue.4. Let your characters sometimes conceal or avoid instead of saying exactly what they mean.5. Use “said” as a dialogue tag whenever possible.6. Use an action rather than a modifier to show how the character is feeling.7. Cut to the chase. Don’t use dialogue that doesn’t move the story forward or reveal character.8. Don’t let your characters be too articulate. Fragments are fine. Don’t force conversations to follow logical order.9. Vernacular is best conveyed by word choice and syntax as opposed to misspellings.3-4 pages (always double-spaced)
