Different Perception and Listening carefully

Soon, Sir Anwari had covered two chapter in this week which is perception and listening. According to the perception, this chapter introduces to the role of perception and the role of the self in communication. From my view, perception is a basic component in the formation of a concept via the senses. There are 3 stages of perception process occurs which is the first stage are sensory stimulation occurs. Everything that we feel or we touch are came from the senses for example we can smell, hear, see, feel and so on. The next stage is organized the sensory stimulation. During this stage, two principles help to organise the sensory stimulate which are proximity principle and closure principle. The last stage, the sensory stimulation is interpreted-evaluated. Sir Anwari also showed the slides of some pictures which can gain the difference perception. For instance, a vase or twins, a young lady or an old lady, a duck or a rabbit.

  Next, listening is our most frequently used and least studied communication skills. I always consider hearing and listening is synonyms. After I learned from this chapter, I realized that they are quite difference. Hearing is the ability to hear while listening is to give attention with the ear. We must give our full respect and listen when the speaker is giving the lecture. That's what I always do when my lecture is making a speech.Sir Anwari gave us 20 simple words to memorise. After memorise all of the words, then we wrote down this 20 words on a paper. I only can memorised 15 out of 20 words. Again, every good conservation starts with good listening. Hence, we must listen careful what the people trying to say.
