Today we were talking about relationships. When we hear world “relationship” we may think that is only between “boyfriend-girlfriend”; however we should think about relationship among people. This means that we can have relationship with our friends, family members as well as with husband or boyfriend. The main idea of relationship is different when we talk about husband and girlfriend, but the process of building our relationship between both of the people is the same. We have two types of relationship models; the Mark Knapp's Relational Development Model and Steve Duck's Filtering Theory Model. I can say that both of the models were good, and each of them works in real word of relationships. Professor explains that media create a model of relationship which affects children and adults look on that topic. Media affect in bad way our relationship because we create our wonderful model of relationship which is different than the reality.

We also learn how to do a good persuasive speech. It was fun to look how professor made very boring speech and then changed it to very interesting. Everything deepens how we are going to present it. There are elements thanks to which we can make our speech more interesting, like: tone of voice, gestures, eye contact or body language.
