Answers
My understanding about communication
is sending and receiving information
between two or more people. The
person sending the message is referred
to as the sender, while the person
receiving the information is called the
receiver. The information conveyed can
include facts, ideas, concepts, opinions,
beliefs, attitudes, instructions and even
emotions.
It is not static. It is not fixed but always
changing.Communication is a two-way
process, the process takes place when
the sender sends or conveys a message
through the channel to the decoder or
listener; the listener then provides
feedback or response to the sender. I'm
fact, there are different theories of
communication processes based on
research.
You will share different thoughts or
ideas.
Yes.It sounds weird, but you need to be
best friends with yourself before you can
be best friends with anyone else.
Because communication forms a part of
your self-concept, and it helps you
understand yourself and others, solve
problems and learn new things, and
build your career.
To communicate you need another
person. Therefore, the least number is
two.
By using eye contact and facial
expressions, gestures, pointing or using
hands, writing, drawing, using
 equipment like gadgets, touch, and/or
through spoken language.

7. Is it easier to communicate For me it's much easier to communicate

verbally or nonverbally? Why? verbally so we can tell exactly the
information or what we want to share.

1. What did Turkle mean when she said “...we are always communicating. And yet we
have sacrificed conversation for more connection”? Give two examples that she
provided to prove her point?
-At home, families sit together, texting and reading e-mail. At work executives text
during board meetings. We text (and shop and go on Facebook) during classes and
when we’re on dates.

2. Do you agree with Turkle that we are “alone together”? Give reasons to support your
conviction?
-
3. Do you think modern technology creates more disadvantages in the way we
communicate? Why or why not?
-Sure modern technology has its own disadvantage but we can't argue with the fact
that it helps us communicate easily especially during these times that we're facing a
pandemic. Modern Technology just made our life easier. For those relatives and
friends we have but are not here with us physically, technology in our generation
gives us access to contact them whenever or wherever.
