Perspective



Sofia Ayalde 16/05/12 Summary/recap

Opinions of girls Why do you think people gossip? "I think people spread rumors and gossip to hurt that person's feelings because they're insecure, like bullies." "I bet people start rumors to hurt people or because they think the truth is too boring." "There are so many reasons! They may misunderstand a situation, want revenge, or just want to be a part of school life." "I think that people spread rumors and gossip because they are either bored, mad at that person, trying to stir up some activity, or to get attention." When they tell you a gossip do you like to listen it? do you pass it on? "I usually try not to listen to rumors, but if I do happen to hear rumors, I just ignore them." "I try really hard, but I usually blab because I'm a big mouth." "I just stop telling the rumor. And I tell the person to stop saying stuff that's going to hurt someone's feelings." "I pass it around big time... it's fun!"

People have many different perspectives about gossip you can see it in the question above, they all change depending in the position they are if they are gossipers they are going to think its really funny, if they are victims they will depress or can have many problems and the witnesses can feel nether sad or happy.

Our Questions: = • Which are the different p.o.v. of the people that use S.C.? =  Juan Pablo Abadia 07/05/2012   Previous Knowledge: Every living person is involved in Social Communication, because even if we can´t speak, listen or write; there´s always another option. In our opinión, Social Communication is a basic tool that we need for development and understanding of the issues that are around us. Through it we learn, discover and evolve; we communicate with people around the world or the ones who are near us. When social Communication is touched by gossip, there are 3 P.O.V :


 * Victims: They are usually the ones who see this in the negative way, which means they are affected and unhappy by it.
 * Offenders: They usually don´t realize the importance of their actions, sometimes they might feel guilty, but most of the times they try to justify their actions in any way, lying to others and themselves.
 * Witnesses: They are usually afraid of getting in the middle of the offenders and the victims, and are basically the audience which might enjoy or not.
