There are many potential obstacles to be navigated when engaging in intercultural and intracultural communication discussed in Chapter 10. How have Covid-19 health precautions of wearing masks and avoiding handshakes/hugs affected our habits of relating to others? Apply Edward Hall’s classic model of Proxemics to this topic of communication patterns. How may this model be altered by the current practice of social distancing? How may our understanding of Haptics be permanently changed?

Propose solutions that could address these challenges for American culture and around the world.
