REL 1000 Lecture 1: The NCA Credo for Ethical Communication is to avoid plagiarism
Document Summary
The nca credo for ethical communication is to avoid plagiarism. It is important to use these principles in public speaking so that the speaker can build a good relationship with the audience. Being honest, accurate, and truthful persuades the audience in the speech rather than lying and exaggerating. We need to give credit and cite sources to people in our own speeches to avoid plagiarizing. We need to hear other people s point of views so we can form our own opinions about the topic, which is why we endorse diversity. As listeners, we should respect others and listen to their points before we decide to judge if we agree or disagree. It is important to communicate and share our resources so that we can improve on becoming a better speaker. As speakers, we should not try to manipulate our audience but have good intentions. We should not be hateful by being racist, sexist, etc. which is degrading individuals.
