A study to assess the communication skills of Chinese students at Memorial University

Abstract

One of the most crucial talents that a Chinese Memorial University student may have been the ability to communicate effectively with others. Throughout their stay at the university, students Was encounter a wide range of situations, both within and outside of the classroom, that call for effective communication. Group work and public speaking are two examples of such activities. Given this context, this study aims to investigate college students' level of communication competence. There were eleven facets of a person's communication skills that could be assessed using a questionnaire that they would be responsible for giving to themselves. Verbal, written, and social behaviour were all covered. The reliability of the questionnaire was adequate across all sub-components of the overall construct. The results of this study suggest that college students have matured to the point where they have developed effective communication skills. There are many different language, literacy, and/or communication-related educational programmes out there, and these terms can vary from country to country. The latter is the focus of this paper; it has long been associated with vocational training and is sometimes seen as a "key" or "core" talent within the context of a broader set of life and employment abilities. As China has emerged as a major player in the global economy in recent years, education has played an increasingly important role in the country's policies and growth. The goal of this research is to find out how teachers and students at three Chinese vocational colleges for higher education felt about the inclusion of a key skills communication course.
