Intuitive communication versus rational communication among students of computing at the Algebra University College

Communication is not just what is said, it is also what has not been said ; its efficacy reflects in the response we get. In formal education, cognitive processes and problem- solving are taught through the prism of rationality with an emphasis on logic and rational approach, according to which everything must be justified and argued. It also prevails that communicative skills can be learned if certain rules are followed. However, it is active listening, empathy and connecting with an interlocutor, that makes possible to influence the behavior of those we communicate with. The intuition is based on an inner feeling that enables us to make decisions without logical resonance, it represents wisdom that we often can not explain how we possess it. The aim of the research conducted among the students of computing at the Algebra University College was to determine whether students rely on the „ratio“ or on the "inner voice" while they communicate. The results showed that although students consider intuition should be taken with dose of reservation due to possible non-objective influences and give priority to rationality in business-related actions, they also opine that the best results are achieved when intuition and rationality are combined.
