HURIER Method

Order Description

Lost in Translation: Writing Prompt 3
Assignment Directions for Chapters 5, 6 and 7
The HURIER model takes a behavioral approach to listening. Using it can help you to develop more effective listening skills. The model focuses on the six key areas or stages of listening: hearing, understanding, remembering, interpreting, evaluating, and responding. In this exercise, you will apply the HURIER model to a fictitious conversation to better understand how each step works on its own and how they all work together in the listening process.
You have recently discovered that you have a long-lost relative living in another state, part of the U.S. you are not familiar with, or even another country. Your relative has invited you to visit and stay for free. You are excited to go, but soon discover he/she has many different meanings for the same words you use and it is a bit confusing.
For example, your long-lost relative tells you he plays football for Chelsea in England. You discover that football in England and football in the United States are two very different sports.
Step One: Select a location in which you have never lived, but know something about from a friend, movie or other source. An alternative is to select a place you have lived, but that was significantly different from where you live now and compare the place you used to live to where you live now.
Discuss, in your paper, three different words that mean something different in that place you selected than they do where you live (or where you live now) and explain the difference between the words. Identify which location has which meaning.
For example, when we want to take time off work in the United States, we typically say vacation. In England, when they take time off of work, they call it a holiday. We, in the U.S., usually use the word holiday for special days on the calendar year such as Thanksgiving or Christmas; whereas, holiday could be any day of the year in England.

Three words with different meanings in two different cultures are not explained in the paper.
The student attempts to satisfy the requirements, but perhaps only 1 or 2 examples are provided AND/OR the examples are not correct AND/OR the examples are not clearly explained.
There are three examples of words that mean different things in two different cultures; however, the examples are not clearly explained and are not supported with any evidence.
The student clearly identifies three different words that mean something different in their own and another’s culture. Both cultures are identified and each example is correct. However, evidence and context are lacking.
The student clearly and completely identifies three different words that mean something different in their own language and then within another culture. Each item is explained and context is provided. Significant evidence and specific examples are included to support the student’s ideas.

Step Two: In paragraph format in a 2-4 page paper, discuss how you would use the HURIER model to avoid a misunderstanding with your long-lost relative while you are in the foreign location by selecting one of the words you discussed in step one and putting it into a conversation format. Categorize the contents of the conversation into each of the listening stages (HURIER).
For example: I was having a conversation with my cousin about going on holiday. In the first stage of the HURIER model, hearing, I would be sure to pay attention in order to hear my relative talk. The best way to hear would be to make sure I focus on my cousin and not allow anything in the background to impair my hearing. According to Floyd (2011), hearing is the physical process that allows a person to recognize sound. In this case, I turned the TV down…
Keep in mind these requirements for content:
? An analysis of the conversation explaining how each step of the HURIER model was used: Hearing,
Understanding, Remembering, Interpreting, Evaluating and Responding. The steps of the model should
be addressed in order.
? Each item’s description and explanation will encompass a paragraph or two. Within this analysis of your
HURIER steps, define the individual steps, either by quoting or paraphrasing Floyd’s definitions.
? Include content regarding language from chapter 5, such as denotative and connotative meanings, and be
sure to define those ideas you use.
? Include content regarding nonverbal communication from chapter 6, as well as a definition of any ideas
that you include, either by quoting or paraphrasing Floyd’s definitions.
? Use specific examples from the conversation and relate them to each step in the model. Explain how
each example reflected the step you identified.
? Answer this question in the paper: Based on what you heard and saw, how did you know what the other
person meant?
