Study Notes
Communication Models
- Linear Model: One-way communication from sender to receiver without feedback.
- Interactive Model: Two-way communication with feedback loops, dynamic interaction between sender and receiver.
- Transactional Model: Ongoing, simultaneous communication where both parties are senders and receivers.
- Shannon-Weaver Model: Highlights noise and emphasizes encoding/decoding in message transmission.
- Berlo's S-M-C-R Model: Involves source, message, channel, receiver, emphasizes encoding and decoding, focuses on context and communication skills.
- Schramm's Model: Interactive model highlighting shared meaning, feedback loops, and communication as a reciprocal process.
- Sender initiates communication, encodes a message (verbal, non-verbal, written).
- Receiver decodes, interpreting the sender's meaning.
- Message: Information conveyed, can be words, text, images, gestures.
- Encoding: Sender translates thoughts into understandable form.
- Decoding: Receiver interprets encoded message.
- Channel: Medium of transmission (face-to-face, phone, email, text).
- Feedback: Receiver's response indicating understanding, helps sender adjust communication.
- Noise: Interference affecting message clarity (physical, semantic, psychological).
- Context: Environmental, social, cultural factors influencing communication.
- Models vary in perspective, but share elements.
- Dynamic communication evolves with interaction.
How Communication Works
- Initiation: Sender has a message to convey.
- Encoding: Sender puts message into transmittable form.
- Transmission: Message sent via chosen channel.
- Reception: Receiver gets and decodes message.
- Feedback: Receiver responds, completing communication loop.
- Noise: Distractions or misinterpretations affecting clarity.
- Context: Social, cultural and environmental factors.
Non-Verbal Communication
- Conveys messages without words (body language, expressions, posture).
Technology-Mediated Communication
- Uses technology to transmit messages (emails, texts, video calls, social media).
Interpersonal Communication
- Exchange of thoughts/feelings between two+ people.
Group Communication
- Interactions among three+ people in discussions/collaborations.
Public Speaking
- Addressing a large audience with a specific purpose (inform, persuade, entertain).
Key Components of Communicative Competencies
- Grammatical: Language rules, vocabulary, syntax.
- Strategic: Using strategies to overcome challenges.
- Pragmatic: Using appropriate language based on context (politeness, tone).
- Non-Verbal: Proficiency in using non-verbal cues effectively.
- Sociolinguistic: Awareness of social and cultural norms.
- Discourse: Organizing and conveying coherent information.
