Elements of Communication
- Communication involves a sender, channel, receiver, and feedback
- The sender initiates the communication process by creating a message and selecting a channel
- The sender encodes the message to make it clear
- The receiver decodes the message and responds or gives feedback
- The medium is the channel used to deliver the message (e.g., print, mass media, electricity, digital)
- The channel is the method of delivering the message to the target audience (e.g., phone calls, text messages)
- Feedback is the response or reaction from the receiver of the message
- Noise is anything that obstructs the communication process, including internal and external elements
