Classroom Exercises in General Semantics

Classroom Exercises in General Semantics

Edited by Mary Morain

Preface by Andrea Johnson

The second edition of this user-friendly teacher’s guide contains additional chapters by leading general semantics educators, including Alverno College Associate Professor Andrea Johnson. We develop awareness of how we use the abstracting process to collect knowledge of our environment. Topics include perception and description, inference chaining, logic and clarity, conflict resolution, and more. Many new illustrations enhance the wealth of general semantics material from a variety of experienced authors and teachers. Lively exercises and demonstrations show how to improve our communicating and evaluating. A new reading list suggests many valuable resources. 1996. 184 + viii pages. 6 x 9 inches. Softcover.
