hello everyone have you ever really
considered what happens when information
is exchanged
for today's lesson we are going to talk
about the stages and the different
factors involved in the communication
process
once again I'm ma'am honey and this is
the video lecture for module 1 lesson 3
entitled the process of communication
from the previous lesson communication
as a process was one of the features of
communication that was discussed it
s attic and cyclical where it has a
series of steps to follow in order to
happen
it is dynamic for it is always changing
and is influenced by the communicator's
mood and thinking
it is also complex since one message may
be interpreted in many ways by different
people
communication education process
comprises essential and interconnected
elements that work together to produce a
system
what are these elements of communication
can you try giving at least one element
I want you to Define and provide an
example for it feel free to post your
answers in the comments section of this
video
elements of communication
to make communication effective we
should be able to understand this
critical elements
each of these eight elements serves an
integral function in the overall process
let's explore them one by one
sender or source
the sender is the person who is trying
to communicate and wants the other
person to receive and understand his or
her message the intent of the message is
usually to get the other person to do or
understand something
the sender also conveys a message
through his or her tone of voice body
language and choice of clothing
sender or Source could be one other
person or a group of people
could also be in a form of a written
material such as a memo or announcement
which contains an information or message
an example of this is a politician
giving a speech or a teacher lecturing a
student
receiver
the receiver is the person who receives
the message or For Whom the message is
meant for
it is the receiver who tries to
understand the message and determines
the best possible response to be given
to the sender
the audience receiving the politician's
speech and a student receiving a lecture
from the teacher in a classroom are
examples of receivers
unfortunately in the transfer of
information the receiver may not
understand the message the way the
sender intended
various factors such as his knowledge
interpretation and experiences may be
different from the sender
oftentimes words have different meanings
and this may affect the receiver's
understanding of the message
[Music]
the message is the information or
subject matter the sender or source is
intending to share
it can be an idea concept emotion
instruction request or feeling that a
person wants to share with another
person
it is the core element in the
communication process
the message can be verbal or non-verbal
it can also be intentional or
non-intentional
messages can be encoded in a variety of
formats such as oral written or visual
examples of messages include the
homework being discussed by a teacher to
a student and the politicians propose
reforms for the barangay
Channel
it is the way the message is transmitted
the effectiveness of the various
channels fluctuates depending on the
characteristics of the communication in
case of immediate feedback oral
communication is convenient
in a situation where the message must be
delivered to more than a small group of
people written channels are often more
effective
the message may be transmitted orally or
in writing the medium of communication
includes the telephone internet post fax
or email
the choice of the channel is decided by
the sender but the message must be
crafted to meet the needs of the
receiver
When selecting the channel several
factors must be considered such as the
availability of the channel suitability
types of receivers and the communication
skills of both the sender and receiver
feedback
feedback ensures that the receiver has
received the message and understood it
in the same sense as the sender meant
did
it also provides an opportunity for the
receiver to ask for clarification and to
agree or disagree
as the amount of feedback increases the
accuracy of communication also increases
once the receiver confirms to the sender
that he has received the message and
understood it the process of
communication is
coming back May form but spoken common
a written message
Style the ruling of ice acai or some
other action
no response is also a form of feedback
without the feedback the sender cannot
confirm that the receiver has
interpreted the message correctly
context
context is another way of taking into
consideration the setting of the
communication process
ions like what is the environment like
is it noisy are there people standing
around what was the nature of the last
conversation and how did it go and what
cultural factors should be considered
there are several types of communication
contexts including intrapersonal
interpersonal group public and mass
communication
for example communication context will
be different for a television
broadcaster than for a door-to-door
salesperson
determining the context of a particular
instance of communication involves
considering the cultural historical
psychological social and physical
factors at Play
barrier or noise
the barrier refers to any obstruction
that is caused by the sender message or
receiver during the process of
communication
talking to a friend in a coffee shop
might be quite busy and very loud
you could have trouble hearing your
friend clearly which in turn might cause
you to miss a critical word phrase or
even an important part of his story
examples of barriers include poor
telephone or cell phone connection poor
audio quality or too much sound
inattentive receivers for image quality
misunderstanding of a message due to
Prejudice or inappropriate gestures
how does the process of communication
work
now that we are able to distinguish
among the different elements of
communication it is time for us to know
how the process moves fluidly between
each of these elements
the communication process starts with
the sender
who wants to share an information with a
receiver
this information is the message
in this case the sender wants the
receiver to know that he loves her so
the message here is I love you
once the sender develops the message he
translates it into a form that can be
transmitted to the receiver this process
is called encoding what happens is that
the message is encoded symbolically such
as in the form of birds pictures
gestures before it is being conveyed
thank you
the sender selects the channel of
communication that will be used should
it be through a phone call a letter or
should he just say it personally to a
face-to-face conversation
the sender decides to use the cell phone
after the channel is chosen the message
then begins the process of transmission
next the message is received by the
receiver who undergoes the process of
decoding
the message is interpreted and the
receiver attempts to analyze and
understand it
lastly the receiver will provide a
feedback in the form of a reply to the
original sender of the message
in this case the receiver sends and I
love you to message to the sender a
mutual understanding is then formed
between the two of them
the context refers to the circumstances
of the situation in which this
communication is taking place
in this case interpersonal communication
in the form of a diet happen between the
two
there are certain barriers that may be
present during the communication process
factors include lack of signal per audio
quality and noise they can originate
from The Source or the receiver from the
channel used in sending the message or
outside the source and receiver's
control
to sum it up
the sender develops an idea or message
to be sent
he encodes the message and selects the
channel of communication that will be
used
the message travels over the channel of
communication
next the message is received by the
receiver who provides the feedback if
applicable
both the context and the barriers
surrounding this communication may
impact the success of the communication
process
successful and effective communication
starts with the right implementation of
the communication process
effective communication leads to
understanding it is through this process
that the sharing of a common meaning
between the sender and the receiver
takes place
for effective communication to happen we
need to understand how the various
elements work
