Summary
A person's conversational style includes far more than the words that he or she speaks. Each conversation is composed of contextual cues, unspoken messages, body language, and the rhythms of speech. For the most part, people communicate without a conscious focus on the subtleties of language. Through this course, the complexities of language, and all that language entails, will become more apparent.

Interesting overview of conversational analysis
Knowing nothing about sociolinguistics, I found this production interesting and informative. It is a bit of whistle-stop tour of conversational analysis, but it gives you enough of an overview for you to decide what you want to learn more about. I enjoyed the content and the narration.
