Elements of Communication
- Sender/Communicator: The source of the message, could be a person or a machine. They prepare the message and ensure its clarity for the receiver.
- Receiver: The intended recipient of the message; could be an individual, group, or a class. Their understanding depends on their background, knowledge, and the message's structure.
- Message: The content transmitted from sender to receiver. Messages can be verbal or nonverbal, and need to be appropriate for the receiver's level of understanding.
- Communication Channel: The medium used to deliver the message (e.g., internet, educational software, or space-based learning channels). The channel needs to be clear and free of disruption.
- Feedback: The receiver's response to the message. Provides insights into the message's impact and how effective the communication was. Can be positive or negative.
- Environment: The surrounding context in which communication takes place. Can influence the message and receiver's understanding.
