1.Define communication. 2.Explain the nature and process of communication. Definition
1.The word communication comes from the
word ‘’communis’’ which means common. Communication therefore, is an act wherein a person imparts knowledge, feelings, ideas and information, with the intention of getting a common understanding of the significance intention, and use of the message. 2. Communication is the purposeful activity of information exchange among two or more participants with the aim of conveying or receiving the intended meanings. Leagans
3. It is a process by which two or
more people exchange ideas, facts, feelings or impressions in ways that each gains a common understanding of the message. Loomis and Beegle
4. It is a process by which information,
decisions pass through a social system, and the ways in which knowledge, opinion and attitudes are formed and modified. KEEP IN MIND!
The most important thing to

Even without words,
communication can happen. Our four senses, audio, visual, touch and smell, communicate. The ring of the alar, says it is time to get up. The eyes looking at the window checking for the weather. The feel of the wind on our skin tells us whether it is hot or cold. The smell from the kitchen tells us what is the food being cooked. Communication is a two way process, consisting of a transmitter and a receiver. Hence, it is necessary that transmitting facts be in a manner that its intended meaning is delivered and the receiver recognizes the use of the message. Then it becomes a two-way process. Through symbols and gestures, early human beings communicated. Based on researches, it shows that about 70% of a persons active time is spent communicating-speaking , reading, gesturing, writing, listening and watching. The Nature of Communication What sets us human beings apart from all other species is we communicate in a rich and sophisticated way. People communicate through the following channels: Sound Speech and language, vocalizations such as sounds followed by a variety of other noise as tapping and so on can be communicative. Vision It is reading each other’s signals. This could be through facial expressions, eye contacts, gestures, body language, unrestrained and non-conscious visual information coming out of a person. Touch and physical contact Handshaking, stroking, patting, tapping, kissing, hugging, close skin-to-skin, and so on. Smell We do pick up olfactory information or the sense of smell from one another. – Quotes to Ponder
