Communication occurs through spoken words, public speeches, news broadcasts, and conversations.
Written communication includes handwritten documents, newspapers, letters, and books.

Communication Models

Lasswell’s model aims to enhance effective communication between sender and receiver while identifying influencing factors termed as "Noise".
David Berlo's model focuses on elements like communication skills, knowledge, attitudes, and social systems, indicating the circular nature of communication.
Osgood–Schramm model emphasizes a circular communication process involving encoding and decoding of messages with the sender as the encoder and the receiver as the decoder.
Westley and MacLean's model provides a broader perspective on communication dynamics, including feedback loops.

Reception Theory

Stuart Hall's Encoding/Decoding model differentiates between understanding media messages and the importance of media and information literacy.
Media literacy relates to the comprehension and production of messages, whereas information literacy encompasses the acquisition and utilization of information effectively.

Technology Literacy

Defined by Bautista et al. as the ability to use technology to solve problems and improve learning outcomes in various subjects.
Emphasizes responsible use of tools and networks for accessing, evaluating, and generating information.

Information Literacy

Components of Information Literacy

Finding: Effectively locate necessary information using various strategies, such as Boolean searches and library catalog systems.
Acknowledging: Recognize and cite sources ethically, understanding legal and social issues surrounding information.

Academic and Real-world Examples

Academic: Citing sources in research papers, creating bibliographies, understanding plagiarism laws.
Real-world: Attributing reposted images, requesting genealogical records, and following copyright regulations.

Typology of Information

Focuses on classifying the types of information and understanding their implications for communication.
