Learning Outcomes:
By the end of the lesson students should:

 Review Explain this!
What is
Communication?
- it is coming from two Latin words
comunicare and communis,
meaning to share or to make
common.

What is Process of
Communication?
-refers to a series of actions or steps
taken in order to
successfully communicate.
 Sender
The communication process
begins with the sender, who is
also called
the communicator or source.
 Receiver
The person to whom a
message is directed is
called the receiver or
the interpreter.
 Message
The message or content is
the information that the
sender wants to relay to
the receiver.
 Channel
the means by which a
message is transmitted. Text
messages, for example, are
transmitted through the
medium of cell phones.
 Feedback
may be direct, such as a
written or verbal response, or
it may take the form of an act
or deed in response
(indirect).
Take Note
The communication process
isn't always so simple or
smooth, of course. These
elements can affect how
information is transmitted,
received, and interpreted
 Noise
This can be any sort of
interference that affects the
message being sent, received, or
understood. It can be as literal as
static over a phone line or radio
or as esoteric as misinterpreting
a local custom.
“When people talk, listen
completely. Most people
never listen.”
-Ernest Hemingway
Let’s have an activity

noticed in this

 Communication
Models
Communication models are
systematic representations of the
process which helps in
understanding how communication
works can be done. Models show
the process metaphorically and in
symbols.
 01
Linear
Model
- Shows a straight path of relaying
message.

- Information from a sender is

conveyed directly to the receiver.

model of
communication.

 03
Shannon – Weaver
Model of Communication
”This is often called the Telephone Model
because it is based on the experience of
having the message interfered with by
“noise” from the telephone switchboard
back in the 1940s.”
 Stop! Look! Listen!
Claude Shannon

 04
Schramm’s
Model of Communication
there is an overlap between the
Field of Experience of the Speaker
and the Field of Experience of the
Listener.

and continuous, without a
beginning or end.
