acknowledgment: Acknowledgment is a communication variable; just like volume, if it's too low or inappropriate, or missing, it effects the outcome. Whenever there is a communication breakdown there is something not being acknowledged verbally. There is a communication breakdown between teachers and community members—the relationship is less than satisfying. The community cannot and does not know how to get into communication with its former teachers. Because of this, citizens withhold their full support and the amount of pay a teacher asks for. The premise—when students learn the subject of acknowledgment by emulating their teachers, dockworkers and all others will just naturally bring teachers along with them financially. |
