that communication skills are key points to focus upon in
building a solid foundation for one’s academic life and career.
At the mention of the word <communication=, what came to
your mind first would probably be talking and listening.
However, communication involves more than just that, for it is
all about the effective transfer of information from one person
to another.
Source: The source, as the sender of
the message, must be fully aware of
what is to be
communicated to the other person. The
source must be clear about the purpose
and objectives for
starting a communicatio

the subject matter of communication.
It is there a son
why there is communication in the
first place. The message itself must be
clearly expressed and
worded.

translating or converting your
message into a format that can be
easily shared with and accessed by
another person
CHANNEL

 Channel: This is the method/s by which you


convey your message. Choosing the most suitable
method for communication depends largely on the
type of message you want to communicate. It can
be through speaking, writing, gesturing, or it
could be through telephone calls, emails, Facebook
Messenger, other instant messaging apps or simply
through a text message
Decoding: This part refers to how the message sent is
interpreted and understood by the receiver,
provided that there are means available to understand the
information shared.

 In the communication process, the "receiver" is the listener, reader, or observer that is, the
individual (or the group of individuals) to whom a message is directed. The receiver is also
called the "audience" or decoder
Feedback: The Feedback is the final
step of the process that ensures the
receiver has
received the message and interpreted
it correctly as it was intended by the
sender. It
increases the effectiveness of the
communication as it permits the
sender to know the efficacy of his
message
