    In the introduction to “They say/I say”: The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing, Gerald Graff and Cathy Birkenstein provide templates designed to engage students to critically and academically think at the college level and in life. Specifically, Graff and Birkenstein argue that the types of writing templates they offer students the necessary means to formulate and structure their writing in an effective manner. As the authors themselves put it, "the underlying structure of effective academic writing--and of responsible public discourse--resides not just in stating our own ideas, but in listening closely to others around us, summarizing their views in a way that they will recognize, and responding with our own ideas in kind."

    In the essay “Communication: Its Blocking and Its Facilitation”, Carl R. Rogers, a famous psychotherapist, explains the importance of fully understanding people and looking at things in their perspective. He points out that the interrupt in communication arises mainly from our instinct to judge or to evaluate our opponents’ opinion, as well as from our emotional response. The way to overcome the barriers is to listen with understanding, which means “to see the expressed idea and attitude from the other person’s point of view, to sense how it feels to him, to achieve his frame of reference in regard to the thing he is talking about” (Carl R Rogers, p396). Sounds simple but not easy to do, this approach is the key leading to successful communication.…
