Problem
The theorists associated with EET have not formally defined communication. Where do you think "communication" occurs in this theory (hint: consider the contexts listed in Table 1.2)? Provide evidence from the theory that might indicate how the theorists' views of communication might be classified using Dance's three ways definitions of communication vary. Using the definition of communication competence provided in this chapter, what role might communication competence play in the EET process? What are the concepts associated with EET? Why are these concepts (rather than theories or models)? Which of the four types of models described in the chapter is used by the theory? Describe your initial reaction to EET. Then, critically reflect on EET. How might EET fare if you evaluated its usefulness by using the criteria described?
