    • Considerations for context, audience, and purpose are crucial for successful communication.

    Public Speaking

    • Public speaking is a form of oral communication delivered to a live audience. It differs from a casual conversation due to the larger audience and the need for structured delivery.
    • The speaker needs to adapt their style and content to the specific audience and the overall environment.

    • Effective public speaking involves planning, organization, and delivery; preparation is vital to success.

    Elements of Communication

    • Communication comprises several key elements that work together:
      • Sender: The individual initiating the communication.
      • Message: The information being conveyed. Clarity is paramount.
      • Channel: The medium through which the message travels (e.g., spoken word, written text, body language).
      • Receiver: The individual receiving the communication. Their understanding is crucial.
      • Feedback: The response from the receiver, indicating understanding or confusion. This allows the speaker to adjust and ensures both are on the same page.
      • Context: The circumstance surrounding the communication, including the time, place, relationship between the parties, and the culture. Every context is different.
      • Noise: Anything that interferes with the communication process. This can be anything from external distractions to internal thoughts.
    • Effective communication requires the sender and receiver to be aware of all these elements, and how they might influence the process.
    • Nonverbal communication plays a significant role, encompassing body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice. Understanding these nuances can clarify or confuse a message.
