MODULE 3: FUNDAMENTALS OF COMMUNICATION
PEDUC010: PURPOSIVE COMMUNICATION
Instructor: Eileen Baptista-Dupra, LPT
INTRODUCTION
Evaluating texts or images is essential because of the proliferation of information
resources and rapid .technological change. As you have noticed, you are always confronted
with a diverse wealth of information for personal, academic, or professional use that can be
accessed in multicultural settings. With the advent of a digital environment or the Internet, most
of the information is unfiltered making its authenticity, validity, and reliability questionable. The
abundance of information from various media, namely short message service, electronic mail, social
media, print and electronic journals, periodicals, and advertisements also poses a challenge for you
in terms of evaluating and understanding it fully.
Let us begin our session with a prayer, In the Name of Father, the Son, and the Holy
Spirit Amen “God says…..Trust me. I’ve stayed with you through every storm in your life,
I’ve given you all that you need, I have, and always will protect you, your family and love
ones. Things might be difficult for you now, just trust in My timing, a change in your
circumstances is coming. Trust Me and enjoy this new day. Amen
Today, you will learn about Evaluation of messages and/or images in multicultural contexts and

LET’S EXPLORE TOGETHER (Eliciting Prior Knowledge)!
I can see in the image the different traffic signs of the road.
The image wants us to convey that for us to have a safe trip,
we must know how to look at the signs first. We must learn
these different signs before driving. These will help us to
know how to communicate with drivers for us to avoid
accidents. They will serve as our guide for us to know the
right way to do especially when we are driving through our
path of life.

Henry IV Part 1 Summary
While his son Price Hal spends time in the taverns, King Henry IV argues with his former ally Hotspur.
Angry, Hotspur gathers a rebellion, and Henry and Hal go to battle to stop him. Henry's army wins the
battle, while Hal redeems himself from his wild youth and kills Hotspur.
Act I
Following the events of Shakespeare's play, Richard II, Henry Bolingbroke has succeeded to the throne of
England as King Henry IV. During his ascension, he was partially implicated in the murder of his cousin,
Richard II, in prison. To atone for Richard's death, Henry IV resolves to lead a crusade to Jerusalem. But
his departure is prevented by news of disloyalty and civil unrest. His cousin, Edmund Mortimer, has been
captured by Owen Glyndwr, a Welsh rebel. There is also fighting in the north between the Earl of
Douglas and Harry Hotspur, the warlike son of one of Henry's former allies. King Henry regrets that his
own eldest son, Henry (known as Hal) spends most of his time in the taverns of London with vagabonds
and ne'er-do-wells. The King demands Hotspur's allegiance and help against the Welsh. But Hotspur feels
that the King has not been sufficiently grateful to Hotspur's family for helping him in the past.
Act II
Meanwhile, Prince Hal, at the Boar's Head Tavern, jokes with his friend, the elderly and penniless Sir
John Falstaff. Falstaff seeks to get money (seemingly by any means possible) to pay for his drinking
habits. He plots to rob a group of travelers. Together with his friends Bardolph and Nym, Falstaff carries
out the robbery. At the same time, in disguise, Hal and his companion Points attack Falstaff and capture
the gold for themselves. Back at the tavern, they reveal to Falstaff that they wanted to trick him and were
the ones who robbed him. Hal is called back to court in the midst of civil war. Hal and Falstaff role play
the imminent conversation between the stern King Henry and wayward Hal. Hal's pointed comments
about his own troubled friends disconcert Falstaff. Hal protects Falstaff from the law and restores the
stolen money to its owners.
Act III
The civil wars become more serious as Hotspur joins his father in making an alliance with the King's
other enemies. All of them are jealous of King Henry's growing power. Hotspur sets out to Shrewsbury to
meet his father's troops.
Hal returns to his father to make peace with him, and the King gives him a command in the army setting
out to meet Hotspur. On the way, Hal encounters Falstaff with a few ragged men. Falstaff has enlisted
these soldiers by taking bribes rather than enrolling more able men.

The King offers to pardon and free Hotspur if he will withdraw his opposition to the throne. The northern
troops have been unable to reach Hotspur and Worcester, one of Hotspur's fellow rebels. Hotspur is
advised by his ally, the Archbishop of York, not to fight. Worcester, Hotspur's ally, keeps the knowledge
of the King's offer of freedom from Hotspur, and the battle of Shrewsbury ensues.
Act V
Falstaff fears for his death in battle and wonders about the wisdom in pursuing honor in exchange only for
injury or death. Hal fights valiantly in the battle, saving his father from harm in combat with Douglas,
another rebel. He even kills Hotspur. Falstaff, having feigned death to avoid injury, claims he was
Hotspur's vanquisher. The King's forces win the day, and Worcester is condemned to death. Hal frees
Douglas, and Henry IV divides his forces to continue battling the rebellion.

Audience Shakespeare expected his audience to be familiar with the characters
and events. Often the dialogue refers to the material of earlier plays
(in Henry IV the rebels are constantly harking back to the fact that
Henry "put down" Richard II) and sometimes situations that develop in
later plays are anticipated earlier.
Author The author of the context was William Shakespeare. He was an
English playwright, poet, and actor, widely regarded as the greatest
writer in the English language and the world's greatest dramatist. He is
often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply
"the Bard"). He wanted it to be remain as the favorite stage piece and
focus and to present action characterized by a series of climaxes prior
to the resolution. The major ideal of the context is fundamental and
often universal ideas explored in a literary work.
What is the message of the text?
The message of the text is all about the concept of honor and it was never given a consistent
definition in 1 Henry IV. The very multiplicity of views on honor that Shakespeare explores suggests that,
in the end, honor is merely a towering reflection of an individual’s personality and conscience. In other
words, honor seems to be defined less by an overarching set of guidelines and more by an individual’s
personal values and goals. All the major characters in the play are concerned with honor, but their
opinions about the subject illuminate more about them than they do about the concept of honor. T he
whole idea of honor is nothing but hot air and wasted effort that does no one any good.
Evaluating Images in multi-cultural context. Please submit a copy of the image. (refer to the
general guide questions of evaluating images)
Source The image I saw from google is all about multicultural people by Stacey
Fitzsimmons, Davina Vora, Lee Martin, Salma Raheem, Andre Pekerti,
and C. Lakshman. I found it by searching it through google. It is reliable
because it shows the differences in people and their culture as one.

Context The image shows that an individual people can be multicultural in three
different (albeit inter-related) ways: they can have deep knowledge of,
they can identify with, and they can have internalized more than one
culture. This article delves into those three aspects of being multicultural
and describes what benefits can accrue from each of them. You’ve heard
about multicultural societies and groups, but have you thought about
multicultural individuals and what they bring to organizations? Multicultural
individuals — such as Chinese- Canadians, Turkish-Germans, or Arab-
Americans — commonly think, perceive, behave, and respond to global
workplace issues in more complex ways than monocultural individuals.
Some multicultural individuals translate these differences into career
success.
Contents The image contains multicultural people. It is all about individuals who
has different cultures. The image wants us to convey that we can do it as
one even though we are different with each other. The element that
supports the image is its color because they came from different culture.
The image wants to evoke the feeling of elevating your self-confidence
that no matter what your color is, we can do it just by helping each other
to attain success.
Audience Other people see the image as smiling people with different colors. The
target audience are the people who has low self-esteem and afraid to keep
pace with successful people. The information provided to that gives me a
clue to the target audience is, as we can see the image is full of people
who are smiling, this image just wants to convey that we can be as one no
matter what your color is.
Author The image is made by Stacey Fitzsimmons, Davina Vora, Lee Martin,
Salma Raheem, Andre Pekerti, and C. Lakshman. These authors also
conducted a research about "Multiculturalism within individuals: A review,
critique, and agenda for future research," Journal of International
Business Studies, Palgrave Macmillan;Academy of International
Business, vol. 50(4), pages 499-524, June. The authors’ purpose are
persuasive and can be also informative because it encourage people to
boost their confidence and it also provides informations that talks about
multicultural people.
Visual I found the layout, design, and color by surfing through the internet.
They are used by making the image more vivid and nice to see.
Yes, it was helpful in framing the message of the image because
it emphasizes the color of each person in the image. In the
foreground we can see that there are people with different colors and the
background of it was a bright color that helps emphasize the foreground.

Technical The color and size of the image is amazing. The quality of the
image is nice because I can see it clearer than the other pictures I
saw. In my opinion, I think it is copyrighted because there are many
images that looks like that when I am looking for pictures that
shows multicultural image.
Microsoft PowerPoint, and other web-based or online presentations are some of the tools
popular in today’s generation. These aids are va l u a b l e for speakers-amateur or professionals-
