- Visual communication can enhance a speaker’s message through storytelling, illustrating a
narrative to make the message more relatable and memorable. Additionally by using visual aids such as
diagrams, charts, and graphs can make it easier for the audiences to understand and remember the
speaker’s message, even when dealing with complex information.
4. Among the stated ethics of communication, which do you think is the least observed?

- “Avoid speaking for others, for example by characterizing what others have said without
checking your understanding, or by universalizing your opinions, beliefs, values, and conclusion,
assuming everyone shares them”. This stated ethics of communication that is often observed because
people sometimes make assumptions about what others think or feel without actually listening to their
perspectives. This may result to miscommunication or misunderstanding. It effectively conveys the
importance of active listening and understanding others instead of making assumptions about their
thoughts or beliefs.
