Story:"Maria and Paco the Parrot"
Summary: Maria was a very shy girl who was given the task of showing a presentation to the elders or older people in her village near Machu Pichu, Peru. She shared her discomfort and how uncomfortable she was standing in front of the older people and communicating with Paco the Parrot. Paco gave Maria some very good tips about the power of communication. After that wonderful encounter Maria was eager and excited to apply the helpful tips as she planned her presentation.
1) Do you think it easier to communicate using a cellphone or texting rather than communicating with a person face to face?
2) Paco disagrees with Maria when she says that it is easier to communicate using a cell phone. He says that "it might be a fast way to communicate, but it does not include some of the most important parts of communication. What do you think Paco means? What are the most important parts of communication missing when we use a cell phone or text?
