What Is Your Ideas / Knowledge About Communication

Communication involves the transmission of a message from a sender to a receiver using a channel. The message is encoded by the sender and must then be successfully decoded by the receiver. Feedback is provided to the sender informing them of how the message was received. Noise can interfere with the message during transmission, encoding, decoding or feedback. For communication to be effective, all elements of the process including the sender, receiver, message, channel, encoding, decoding, feedback and noise must work together successfully.

•What is your ideas /

knowledge about
communication.
•What is communication?
•The word communication is
derived from the Latin noun
communis and the Latin verb
communicare that means to make
common.
• Communication is very important for the
human beings. It really regulates and shapes all
human behavior. Communication is the
mechanism through which human relations
exist and develop. It is the interchange of
thoughts or ideas. It is viewed as the
transmission of information. In everyday life,
the communication is a system through which
the messages are sent, and feedback received.
• Communication is the transfer of information
from the sender to the receiver in the manner
that the transferred information is being
understood by both the participants. According
to Brown, “Communication is a process of
transmitting ideas or thoughts from one person
to another for the purpose of creating an
understanding in the thinking of the person
receiving communication”
• The following points show the different purposes for a
communication, and describe the way in which the
communication differs based on its purpose.
• To inform the public regarding the affairs concerned to them.
• To convey the messages to the people those are required.
• To persuade the human beings for certain activities.
• To request the people to get something done.
• To warn the public regarding some nuisance that has got
consequences.
BASIC ELEMENTS OF
COMMUNICATION PROCESS
1. SENDER-RECEIVER
• Communication means that the sender and the receiver
get involved in communication because they have ideas
and feelings to share. This sharing, however, is not one
way or turn taking process. In most communication
situations, people are senders and receivers at the same
time. They are the participants in a communication.
2. MESSAGE
• It is made up of the ideas and feelings that the
senders/receivers want to share. Ideas and
feelings can only be shared if the are
represented by symbols. Symbols are things that
stand for something else. All communication
messages are made up of two symbols: Verbal
and Non-verbal
MESSAGE
• Verbal symbols are all the words in a language,
which stand for a particular thing or idea.
• Non-verbal symbols are anything we
communicate without using words such as facial
expressions, gestures, posture, colors, vocal tones,
appearance which have certain meaning attached
to them.
3. CHANNEL

• The channels are routes traveled by a message as


it goes between the senders/receivers. Sound and
sight are primarily channels in face to face
communication and even in not face to face. At
present, it is increasingly common to use social
networking sites for communication where we
see and hear the person we are communicating.
In mass media, the channels may be radio,
records, television, newspapers, magazine etc…
4. FEEDBACK

• A feedback is a response of the receiver to


the sender and vice versa. This is very
important in communication since it tells
how ideas and feelings have been shared in
the way they are intended to.
5. NOISE
• Noise keeps a message from being understood or
accurately interpreted. Noise may be an external or
internal interference in transmitting and receiving the
message. External noise is any noise that comes from
the environment that keeps the messages from being
heard or understood. Internal noise occurs in the minds
of the senders receivers such as prior experience,
absent-mindedness, feeling or thinking of something
other than the communication taking place.
SETTING

• Essentially the context where


communication occurs. It may be a
venue, formal or informal seating
arrangements, attire, use of sound
system, etc…
• The six elements can be summed up
as: Who, the source(sender); What,
the message; How, the medium; to
Whom, the recipient(the receiver);
Why, the influence, impact, world
view; Where, the context.
LEVELS OF COMMUNICATION

• Communication involves the interactions between


and among people. It takes place on several levels.
There is face to face communication and the
mediated communication, which may take the
form of print such as newspapers, newsletter, and
other written forms, or non print using electronic
equipment such as computer technology, TV, radio
etc..
1.INTRAPERSONAL COMMUNICATION

• Communication that occurs within us.


Involves feelings, thoughts, and the
way we look at ourselves. The self is
the only sender and receiver. The
channel is your brain. The feedback is
in the form of talking to oneself.
2. INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION

• The communication that occurs on


one to one basis usually in an
informal, unstructured setting is
interpersonal communication.
Messages consist of both verbal and
non verbal symbols.
3. INTERCULTURAL
COMMUNICATION

•Occurs between or among


members of different cultures
or people who are encultured
differently.
4. INTERVIEWING
• Makes use of a series of questions and answers
usually involving two people or groups. Its
purpose is to obtain information on a particular
subject. In an interview, communication,
communication takes place verbally in a face to
face setting and a lot of non verbal information
are exchanged. Feedback is very high and instant
and drives the conversation.
5. SMALL GROUP
COMMUNICATION
• Occurs when a small group of people
meets to solve a problem. There is a
cooperative thinking; there is a specific
purpose. Communication process in
small groups is more complicated than in
interpersonal communication.
6. MASS COMMUNICATION

•The sender – receiver (speaker)


sends a message (speech) to an
audience in a highly structured
manner. Additional visuals may
be used.

ONE VERY IMPORTANT ASPECT ABOUT
COMMUNICATION IS THAT IT IS
IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO COMMUNICATE!
COMMUNICATION IS ALL ABOUT SENDING

AND RECEIVING MESSAGES THAT CAN BE
ALTERED BY NOISE AND GIVEN
FEEDBACK.

A MESSAGE STARTS AT AN INFORMATION
BASIS WHICH IS TRANSMITTED AND SENT
TO A RECEIVER. DURING THIS TIME, THE
MESSAGE CAN INTERFERE WITH NOISES,
AND FINALLY BE GIVEN BACK WITH
FEEDBACK.
THE SENDER HOLDS THE
SOURCE OF THE MESSAGE
AND IS ACCOUNTABLE FOR
THE SUCCESS OR FAILURE
IN COMMUNICATING.
 The Sender has more control of the act
than the receiver.
 Encoding is the procedure where
the source takes the idea and applies
symbols that can be verbal or
nonverbal to send which correspond
to the idea.
 Culture, gender,
expectations, language, etc. can all
The Message is what the
sender wants the
audience to know and is
the actual content.
Sentence structure, spelling,
grammar, etc., are all
aspects of a message.
 Messages must pass through a
medium called Channel. The
Channels of communication consist
of
sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell.
 Channels can affect communication
greatly and must be chosen
carefully.
 Writing a letter, sending flowers, or taking
to a person are all different mediums.
 The Receiver is the audience of the
message.
 There could be a primary audience, who
the message is for, or secondary
audience, surrounding people who
see/hear the communication.
 Decoding is the skill of translating the
message into symbols.
 It is difficult to understand the message
exactly the same way the sender sent
it because they are not identical. We
can only wish it comes as close.
 Culture, gender, expectations,
language, etc. that all affected
encoding, can also affect
decoding.
Feedback is the information
that is sent back.
Feedback can tell the Sender
how you have decoded it by
the way you respond to it.
 Noise can happen at any time
during communication.
 It also disrupts or distorts the process.
 It could be physical or
psychological.
We must remember, “Communication
effectiveness depends on the
successful integration of all the parts
of the
process.”
