The Continuing Education and Development
Center at The University of Basra
organized an online workshop on verbal and non-verbal communication between the teacher and the student.
The workshop, which is part of a developmental training course for faculty members, aims to focus on the importance of human interaction between the student and the teaching staff for the success of the information transfer process.
The workshop, presented by Dr. Rifa'at Abdullah Jassim, included an explanation of the types, images, obstacles to communication, methods of overcoming obstacles, and the competencies that teachers must have to succeed in the teaching profession.
The workshop called for attention to the preparation of the teaching staff at the psychological, personal, social and moral levels, since teaching is one of the professions that requires a set of moral and personal competencies, and that obtaining the highest academic ranks and academic certificates is not sufficient in itself or qualified to practice the teaching process
