Q & A
What is the first step in the communication process?
-The first step in the communication process is having an idea or a notion that the sender wants to express or share.
How do past experiences and culture influence communication?
-Past experiences, values, attitudes, knowledge, culture, and feelings shape the sender's ideas and influence how they interpret the ideas of others.
What does it mean to 'encode' an idea in communication?
-Encoding an idea means converting the thought or idea into a form that can be communicated, such as using words, gestures, or symbols.
What is the role of the receiver in the communication process?
-The receiver's role is to interpret (decode) the message sent by the sender and provide feedback to ensure understanding.
How is the concept of feedback important in communication?
-Feedback is crucial because it allows the sender to know whether the receiver has understood the message correctly. It completes the communication cycle.
What are communication channels, and why are they important?
-Communication channels are the mediums through which messages are sent, such as face-to-face conversations, text messages, or phone calls. They are important because they affect how the message is transmitted.
Can you give an example of how the same message can be sent through different channels?
-Yes, if you wanted to say hello, you could wave, say it aloud, or send a text. The message is the same, but the channel varies.
What factors contribute to the context of communication?
-The context of communication includes the emotions of the communicators, the reasons for the communication, and the setting where the communication takes place.
What are communication barriers, and can you give an example?
-Communication barriers are anything that interrupts, distorts, or blocks the communication process. Examples include loud noises, bad phone connections, or language differences.
How do senders and receivers switch roles during communication?
-Senders and receivers switch roles as the conversation progresses, with the receiver becoming the sender when they provide feedback, creating a continuous cycle of communication.
Outlines
đŹ The Basics of Communication
This paragraph introduces the concept of communication, explaining that it happens through various methods, including conversations, posters, or even glances. It emphasizes that communication often occurs effortlessly, without needing to speak. The module will focus on the basic elements of communication, starting with an idea that needs to be expressed.
đ§ The Role of Ideas in Communication
Communication starts with an idea that we want to share. This paragraph explains that our past experiences, values, attitudes, culture, knowledge, and feelings shape both the ideas we have and how we interpret the ideas of others. These influences form our unique perceptions, which impact communication.
đ Encoding and Decoding in Communication
Before transmitting an idea, it must be encoded. The paragraph compares encoding to creating a code, similar to war strategies or football plays that prevent the opponent from understanding. Once encoded, the idea becomes a message sent to a receiver, who must decode it by interpreting the message through their own filters, such as experiences, attitudes, and culture.
đ The Communication Feedback Loop
This section describes how the receiver sends feedback to the sender, confirming whether the message was understood correctly. The process continues in a cycle as long as the conversation goes on. The roles of sender and receiver shift back and forth, depending on who is sending the message and who is responding.
đĄ Communication Channels
Messages are transmitted through channels, which are the methods of delivery for communication. The paragraph discusses different channels, such as waving, texting, or speaking in person. The choice of channel affects how the message is sent, and the example of giving someone a present illustrates the variety of channels, including mailing or face-to-face delivery.
đ The Context of Communication
The context in which communication occurs is crucial. It encompasses the emotions, reasons for communication, and the location where it takes place. The paragraph emphasizes that context can significantly affect how communication is interpreted and understood by all parties involved.
đ§ Communication Barriers
This final section addresses the potential barriers to communication, which can disrupt or interfere with the process. Examples include loud noises, bad phone connections, language differences, attitudes, and physical conditions like temperature or malfunctioning hearing aids. These barriers can prevent messages from being transmitted or received clearly.

Highlights
Communication happens through various forms such as conversations, posters, or glances across a room.
Most communication occurs without much effort or even opening our mouths.
Communication starts with an idea influenced by our past experiences, values, attitudes, knowledge, culture, and feelings.
Encoding involves transforming ideas into a form that can be shared with others, like encoding information in a football teamâs playbook.
The encoded idea is called the message, which is transmitted to a receiver.
The receiver decodes the message by filtering it through their own experiences, culture, attitudes, values, knowledge, and feelings.
Feedback is the response from the receiver to the sender, ensuring the message was understood.
Communication is a continuous process where the roles of sender and receiver switch.
Messages are sent through different channels, like face-to-face speaking, texting, or waving.
The choice of channel depends on the situation, such as giving someone a present in person or mailing it.
Context plays a crucial role in communication, including emotions, the reasons for communication, and the setting.
Communication barriers can disrupt the process, such as loud noises, bad phone connections, or language differences.
Examples of communication barriers include broken hearing aids, the speaker's attitude, and the temperature.
The communication process involves encoding, transmitting, decoding, and providing feedback.
The cycle of communication repeats as long as the conversation continues.
Transcripts
every day we communicate communication
happens through conversations posters or
glances across a room in fact most
communication occurs without much effort
on our parts or even opening our mouths
in module one we will take a look at the
big picture of communication and examine
its basic
elements communication starts with an
idea to be able to communicate
we must have an idea a notion something
we want to express information to share
Etc our past experiences values
attitudes knowledge culture feelings all
influence our ideas and the way that we
interpret the ideas of others these
influences are our unique perceptions or
the way we view things around us before
idea can be transmitted to another
person or group we must encode these
ideas think back to your history classes
or football what does a group at war or
a team do when they don't want the other
side or team to understand they place
that information or team play into
code in other words they encode the
idea now that the idea is encoded it's
ready to be transmitted or sent to
another person or group The encoded idea
is called the message the message is
sent to a receiver this is just like in
a football game the receiver is to catch
the football a telephone has a receiver
in which you are able to hear the person
on the other end of the line the
receiver must then interpret the message
by filtering the new information through
their past experiences culture attitudes
values knowledge and
feelings this interpretation is called
decoding the
message the sender needs to make sure
that the receiver understood the message
therefore it is the receiver's job to
convey a message back the receiver's
reply to the sender is called feedback
the feedback allows the sender to ensure
that the original message was
interpreted correctly by the receiver
once the cycle has gone full
circle it will repeat itself for as long
as the conversation continues we could
even say that the sender and receiver
change roles throughout the process
depending on who is sending the message
and who is responding to
feedback now that we understand the
general idea about how the Cycle Works
let's look at a few other pieces of the
communication
process the messages that are trans
transmitted between senders and
receivers are sent through channels the
channel essentially determines how the
message will be sent for example if I
wanted to tell someone hello I could
wave say hello or text hi to someone
with my cell phone the messages will be
the same however the manner in which I
chose to send it varies think about the
decisions that you have to make if you
want to give someone a present will you
give it to them yourself mail it through
the post office or ask a friend to
deliver it for you
messages can be sent through many
channels for example speaking face to
face instant messaging writing letters
making facial expressions or even
watching
television another important piece of
the communication process is the context
in which a communication takes place the
context includes everything from the
emotions of the communicators the
reasons for the communication taking
place and where the actual communication
takes
place so far we have looked at the
communication process and how it works
in ideal situations however sometimes
the process is interrupted something
that interrupts distorts blocks or
interferes with the process is referred
to as a communication barrier loud
noises bad phone connections language
attitude about the topic or speaker the
temperature and a broken hearing aid are
all examples of the communication
barriers
