Director’s Input
Communication is a human Activity

-People communicate their ideas and feelings using a language, in whatever

form, to meet their needs.
-It maybe “a deliberate or accidental transfer of meaning.” (Gamble & Gamble,
2012)

- A human engagement whether it takes place as one speaks with himself/herself

in prayer or during reflection (intrapersonal) between two people
(interpersonal), among several persons (group communications), or between one
person and a big group of people or the public.
- A complex activity that only human beings use, since we are wired as thinking,
Verbal and Nonverbal Communication
- Verbal Communication make use of words in the process of sending and receiving
messages.

- Written Communication is sending and receiving messages through written symbols, such
as language. It uses traditional pen and paper or electronic gadgets such as the computer,
tablets, and laptop and takes the form of letters, e-mails, SMS, private messages or text
chats, memos, reports, proposals, and printed advertisements.

-Oral Communication includes listening and speaking skills. This mode of communication
maybe done through face -to – face conversations with a person or a group, or through
electronic means such as telephones or cellphones, video conferencing, or any other
medium.
-Talking with your friends over the phone or having face-to- face conversations
are examples of informal oral communication.

-Conducting seminars or lectures, delivering a speech in front of big audience,

and presenting business proposals are examples of formal oral presentations.

-Nonverbal communication is sending and receiving messages without the use of

words; instead, nonverbal language is used such as facial expression and body
movements, among others. Although nonverbal language can communicate by
itself, it makes oral communication more effective when it used appropriately.
Audio and Visual communication
- Audio communication primarily uses sounds to communicate or any form of
transmission that is based on hearing.

-Visual Communication uses aids such as pictures, drawings, illustrations, and

graphic organizers, like charts and tables.
-Audio and visual media usually reinforce oral and written communication, but
they can also communicate by themselves. In some presentations, they may
even replace written and oral communication altogether.
Example: 1. Charts and tables
2. Advertisement on billboard
Elements of the Communication Process
The Sender
The communication process begins with the sender, who is also called the communicator or source.

The Receiver
The person to whom a message is directed is called the receiver or the interpreter.

The Message
The message or content is the information that the sender wants to relay to the receiver.

The Medium
Also called the channel, the medium is the means by which a message is transmitted.

Feedback
The communication process reaches its final point when the message has been successfully transmitted, received, and
understood.
Other Factors

•Noise: This can be any sort of interference that affects the message being sent, received, or
understood.

•Context: This is the setting and situation in which communication takes place. Like noise, 
context can have an impact on the successful exchange of information. It may have a
physical, social, or cultural aspect to it. (Nordquist, Richard. "The Basic Elements of the
Communication Process." ThoughtCo, Apr. 6, 2020, thoughtco.com/what-is-
communication-process-1689767.)
