Communication

Effective communication in any context is dialogic.
Interpretation is a conversation.

Successful interpretation is a reciprocal relationship
between subject and audience.
Getting to know who uses and how they use information
-- their experiential diversity and cultural specificities --
is essential to research, writing and presentation
