PERSON
Communication is a process of
sharing and conveying messages or
information from one person to
another within and across channels,
contexts, media, and cultures
(McCornack, 2014).
Communication is a
process.
Communication occurs between two
or more people (the speaker and the
receiver).
Communication can be expressed
through written or spoken words,
actions (nonverbal), or both spoken
words and nonverbal actions at the
same time.
1. Speaker – the source of information or
message
2. Message – the information, ideas, or
thoughts conveyed by the speaker in
words or in actions
3. Encoding – the process of converting
the message into words, actions, or
other forms that the speaker
understands
4. Channel – the medium or the means, such
as personal or non-personal, verbal or
nonverbal, in which the encoded message is
conveyed
5. Decoding – the process of interpreting the
encoded message of the speaker by the
receiver
6. Receiver – the recipient of the message, or
someone who decodes the message
7. Feedback – the reactions, responses, or
information provided by the receiver
8. Context – the environment where
communication takes place
9. Barrier – the factors that affect the flow of
communication
The receiver decodes or interprets the message
based on the context.
The receiver gets the message.
The receiver sends or provides feedback.
The speaker generates an idea.
The speaker encodes an idea or converts the idea
into words or actions.
The speaker transmits or sends out a message.
The speaker generates an idea.
The speaker encodes an idea or converts the idea
into words or actions.
The speaker transmits or sends out a message.
The receiver gets the message.
The receiver decodes or interprets the message
based on the context.
The receiver sends or provides feedback.
Directions: Read information in advance about
Models of Communication. Submit your noted
salient points about the topic on one whole sheet
of paper.

Elements of communication
Communication setting example
Is there only one way to explain
how communication works?
Picture 1
Picture 2
It is a linear model which consists of three
basic elements: the speaker, the subject,
and the listener.
Whether communication happens or not
depends on the listener, who establishes the
point of the message. (Oyero, 2010)
Known as the mother of all communication models, the Shannon-
Weaver model (1949) depicts communication as a linear or one-
way process consisting of five elements: a source (producer of
message); a transmitter (encoder of message into signals); a
channel (signals adapted for transmission); a receiver (decoder of
message from the signal); and a destination.
This model, however, has been criticized for missing one essential
element in the communication process: feedback. Without
feedback, the speaker will not know whether the receiver
understands the message or not.
Transaction Model is a two-way process with the
inclusion of feedback as one element.
This model is more interactive. There is a
collaborative exchange of messages between
communicators with the aim of understanding
each other. It also shows that a barrier, such as
noise, may interfere with the flow of
communication
1. Linear communication includes feedback.
2. Shannon and Weaver suggests that information transmission is
passed from one person to another.
3. Field of experience refers to a person's background, including his or
her culture, life experiences, and heredity.
4. Communication is usually verbal.
5. Communication is an on-going process.
6. Transaction Model is a two-way process with the inclusion of
feedback as one element.
7. Shannon-Weaver model is not interactive.
8. Channel is not included in Shannon-Weaver model of
communication.
9. Aristotle model is considered as the mother of models of
communication.
10. Public speaking is an interactive type of communication.
1. Form four groups.
2. Each group will create 2 minute
presentation that shows how
Shannon-Weaver and Transactional
model of communication can be
observed.
3. Be creative.
4. You have 15 minutes to prepare.
