    Study Notes

    Aristotle's Model of Communication

    • Aristotle is considered a pioneer in rhetoric, focusing on public speaking as the main communication form.
    • Key components include:
      • Speaker: Delivers the message.
      • Message: The content conveyed.
      • Audience: Receivers of the message.
    • The effectiveness of public speaking relies on the speaker's analysis of the audience to tailor the message for persuasion.

    Shannon-Weaver Model of Communication

    • Developed by Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver, known as the Telephone Model.
    • Main components include:
      • Sender: Originates the message.
      • Encoder: Converts the message into signals.
      • Channel: Medium for message transmission.
      • Decoder: Reverts signals back to a message.
      • Receiver: End target of the message.
      • Noise: Interference that can distort the message.
    • Noise can lead to discrepancies between the sent and received messages, affecting clarity.

    Schramm Model of Communication

    • Wilbur Schramm, known as the Father of Mass Communication, introduced a model emphasizing shared experiences.
    • Main components include:
      • Source: Sends the message.
      • Encoder: Converts thoughts for communication.
      • Message: Content being shared.
      • Channel: Medium for sending the message.
      • Decoder: Receiver's interpretation process.
      • Receiver: The recipient of the message.
      • Field of Experience: Shared experiences influencing understanding.
    • Effective communication occurs when sender and receiver share overlapping fields of experience, while miscommunication arises without this overlap.

    Eugene White's Model of Communication

    • Proposed a cyclical communication model highlighting its dynamic nature.
    • Main components include:
      • Thinking: Initial idea formation.
      • Symbolizing: Converting ideas into symbols or language.
      • Expressing: Delivering the message.
      • Transmitting: Sending the message via a channel.
      • Receiving: The receipt of the message.
      • Decoding: Interpretation of the message.
      • Feedbacking: Receiver's response.
      • Monitoring: Adjusting based on feedback.
    • Communication is a continuous process without a clear start or end, and feedback is essential for closing the communication loop.

    Helical Model of Communication

    • Developed by Frank Dance in 1967, likening communication to a helix to symbolize continuity and progression.
    • The helix shape represents communication as a cumulative process that evolves over time.
    • Communication is viewed as a lifelong journey, starting from birth and nurturing development through experiences.

    Transactional Model of Communication

    • This model highlights the interactive nature of communication where sending and receiving messages occurs simultaneously.
    • Components include:
      • Sender-Receiver: Interchangeable roles participating in the message exchange.
      • Message: Information exchanged between parties.
      • Channel: Medium used for sending messages.
      • Feedback: Receiver's response that informs the sender.
      • Noise: Interference that can disrupt the message.
    • Emphasizes that communication is a continuous loop, with feedback essential to the process.
