b. Presentation

According to Chavez et. Al (2012, p. 1) “Communication of today demands that both


sender and receiver of the message take an active part in the process. It is a two-way process.
The older the earth has grown, the more complex it has become for people to communicate”.

Communication involves sending and receiving messages through different channels. No


matter if one speaks intimately to a friend or addresses a huge crowd in a conference, in formal
business meetings, or writing an academic report we all direct our messages to an audience. It is
the responsibility of the sender to deliver his message effectively.

c. Lesson

Communication is an active process between the sender and receiver. It is an interaction


of channels involved to produce a sound. There are principles to consider in the process of
communication (Chavez et. Al, pp. 2-4)

For students to be equipped with proper knowledge, values and skills, a field of
experience and social interaction is necessary. In the many models of communication, the
Interactive Model is also a representation of this purpose. It presents that communication is not
only a two way process but it has a “field of experience” which includes our cultural
background, ethnicity, geographic location, extend of travel and -general personal experiences
(http://iact.com/?q=models).

Principles of Communication Activity:

1. Know your audience


- You know who you are talking or addressing your speech.

2. Know your purpose


- It important to know your purpose of discussion

3. Know your topic


- A speaker addressing a conference should be prepared as far as the topic assigned is
concerned.

4. Anticipate objections
- You cannot expect everybody to easily agree with you on certain matters. It is a
normal thing to notice some people who would go against you with what you are
saying.

5. Present a rounded picture


- Explain every detail of information with all the possible sources.

6. Achieve credibility with your audience.


- How it is achieved? A credible speaker sticks to the truth no matter what. He cites
figures and facts from respected authorities too.

7. Follow through on what you say.


- Be consistent with what you have started. If you are on the positive side of the issue,
move along on the same plane. Avoid presenting the opposite which only confuses
the audience.

8. Communicate a little at a time.


- Present your ideas logically. Release the key point one after the other. It will allow
listeners to digest well what you have discussed.

9. Present information in several ways


- Develop the art of expressing information differently. Helpful devices maybe in the
form of anecdote, a poem, a short story, a comparison and many others.

10. Develop a practical and useful way to get feedback.


- Immediate feedback is required.

Communication Techniques:

1. The Good Old Boy is referred to the experienced speaker who the audience is familiar with.
He may deliver good information but at times he may poorly delivered it.

2. The Entertainer is the speaker who uses anecdotes or hilarious stories in delivering
messages.

3. The Academic is the speaker who keeps an eye on the precision of the presentation. He uses
an organized outline and delivers the message as planned.

4. The Reader is the one who reads his script word for word. The speaker is prepared of the
message but at times, it can be technical, boring and difficult to understand.

5. The Snail is the one who drags his speech in a seemingly endless manner. He tends to discuss
each item thoroughly. He can be too detailed of the message but he would not notice the time
consumed for each discussion anymore.
6. The Gadgeteer is the person who uses every gimmick and technique in the presentation. Too
much visual aid, the speaker may lose sight of the message.
