Regarded as one of the most influential communication models anda Lasswell’s model essentially describes who says something, what is said, which channel is used to send what is said, to whom the message is aimed at and what effect the message has.

Lasswell also brought the concept of Effective Communication Process. He talked about the relation between presentation of facts and how it generates different effects, a“ The use of the concept of effect makes Lasswell’s model non-linear unlike its name. It is because effect can also be taken as feedback. William MeGuire (1981, as cited in Health Knowledge, 2017) adds a further dimension to communication. Instead of having only an X axis with Source, Message, Channel, and Receiver which he calls "input factors", he adds a Y axis comprised of Attention, Liking, Comprehension, Yielding, Remembering, and Action, which he calls "output factors."

Use of language. The understanding of what people hear can be changeg : by loudness, intonation, clarity, use of jargon, aggressive words, Ne d colloquialisms. 2. Behavior. In face to face meetings, body language‘can affect the Whole meaning of communication. For example, frowning, arms folded and legs apart, pointing fingers, and looking bored versus animated voice and eyes, smiling face, and positive arm movements. Ovid summed this up in this quote..."4 new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or g yawn. It can be stabbed to death by a quip and worried to death bya Srown on the right man's brow." 3. Other symbols, for example hand-outs, presentations, stage props, examples of work etc. Getting over the right message is complex as the meaning of the message may be: ° misunderstood © misinterpreted * misheard + ignored * perceived as irrelevant Delivering the ‘right’ message i Careful thought on how the message is delivered is required, taking into account: * What are we trying to convey? * What are we inadvertently conveying? Confucius wrote... ‘Uf language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant. I what is said is not what i : fe remains undone’ int, then what ought to be done Monroe's Motivation Sequence Alan Monroe's Motivated Sequence (1935, as cited in Agnes Scott College, n.d), while written to support people in making persuasive speeches, is a useful reminder of the key steps as they are the same for all communication and action, Attention Step * Get the attention of your audience, ‘This can be done with a detailed story, shocking example, dramutic statistic, quote, ete, ‘This is part of your introduction (in addition to stating your thesis, giving a preview of your main points, mentioning your credibility, and telling your audience why the topic is of concern to them), Need Step + Show the problem exists, that it is significant, and that it will not go away by itself.

As such, it assumes the importance of ethical responsibilities in direct or immediate communication, such as the obligation to speak truthfully, and seeks to reflect on how these carry over into the complex circumstances that arise with the development of communications, science, and technology. Because of the historical role played by reflection on ethics in relation to mass circulation print technologies in the form of newspapers during the first half of the twentieth century, communication ethics has its roots in journalism ethics. Because of the multiplicity of communications media during the last half of the twentieth century, the term media ethics is sometimes used as a synonym for communication ethics (Encyclopedia.com, 2016). For a better understanding of Communication Ethics, the students will have to watch a video from https://study.com/academy/lesson/ethical- communication-in-the-workplace.html. 12
