Communication helps to spread knowledge and information among people. Communication is the foundation of all human relationships. Communication helps people to express their ideas and feelings and at the same time helps us to understand emotions and thoughts of others. The Communication Process The process of communication begins with a source/sender/ encoder who can be an individual, an entity, a company or an organization. A communication channel (verbal, nonverbal, technology, written) refers to the pathway by which the message gets transmitted from the sender to the receiver. The idea or concept transmitted to the receiver is called the message. The message is the verbal and non-verbal form of the idea, thought, or feeling that one intends to communicate to another person or groups of people. Verbal message pertains to the language one utters. It comes in the form of words, phrases, and sentences which can either be oral or written. Non-verbal message refers to gestures, body movements, sign languages, and facial expressions that carry with them their own meaning. The primary role of the receiver is to decode or interpret the message and may respond/give a feedback to the message being received or not. Feedback may be in a form of verbal or nonverbal responses, e.g. nod, smile, etc The Elements of the Communication Process Sender/Source Encoding Receiver Context Message Channel Decoding Feedback Barriers Physical Milieu/ Context – where the communication takes place, environmental conditions (temperature, noise level, etc.), time, distance between communicators. Social Milieu/ Context – the nature of relationships existing between or among the communicators (friends, husband and wife, parent and child, colleagues, boss- subordinate) Psychological Milieu/Context – communicators’ moods and feelings Cultural Milieu/Context – beliefs, values and norms shared by a large group of people Historical Milieu/ Context – the background provided by previous communication incidents between or among the communicators and which affects understandings in the current exchange. External noise – sights and sounds and any other distractions in the environment. Internal noise – distractions within the communicator such as psychological (daydreaming, worrying, etc.) or biological (hearing loss or illness). Semantic noise – the use of words in language, e.g. use of jargons, slang expressions, etc. *The doctor reprimanded the student nurse for failing to update him on the patient’s status as instructed. The nurse, who had been sleepy when the instructions were given earlier, forgot to follow through.

Monday mornings are often busy; you spotted two adults running while on your way to school one morning. They both appeared to be in a hurry, yet something was off. Can you differentiate the two based on their body language? Tell us the difference. Verbal Communication Verbal communication refers to communication that makes use of language in expressing ideas or emotions. Communicators utilize speech to express or communicate what they wish to say or communicate. Although spoken communication is frequently thought of when the phrase "verbal communication" is used, written communication is also a form of verbal communication. TYPES OF Written VERBAL Communication COMMUNICATION Oral Communication These are printed messages. Examples include memos, proposals, 01 e-mails, letters, etc. They may be printed on paper, handwritten, or appear on the screen. It consists of all spoken exchanges. 02 Examples are casual conversations among friends, a voicemail, and conference calls and speeches Nonverbal Communication Nonverbal communication refers to communication that does not make use of language to communicate. Other than words, nonverbal communication involves body language, gestures, appearance, and silence. Elements of Nonverbal Communication Vocalics/ Proxemics Chronemics Artifacts Movement Paralanguag e Vocalics/ Paralanguage This refers to the use of volume, tone, pitch, and rate of speaking to give additional meaning or emphasis to what is spoken. Proxemics This refers to the use of space to convey an idea or image. The use of space or proximity is a significant indicator of how close or intimate we feel toward people. Proxemics There are four (4) proxemic zones according to Hall (1966): The Intimate Zone (0” – 1.5’) The Personal Zone (1.5 – 4’) The Social Zone (4’ – 12’) The Public Zone (12’ – infinity) Chronemics It is an attitude of time which disclose information with others about status and relationship with others. It is our self-concept. For example, being late to appointments where you have duties and responsibilities is almost always indicate a sign of disrespect or lack of commitment towards work. On the other hand, to be punctual suggests that the person is committed to the task at hand or a sign of respect to those whom one is meeting. Artifacts These refer to the things a person own, use, or wear that convey message about such person; it includes our preference, taste, or resources (or the lack of it to convey meanings) Movement It refers to your posture, gesture, facial expression, and body language and everything you do are perhaps the most obvious in communicating messages. We interpret a great deal of meaning through body movement. However, communication through body language might be interpreted differently in different settings and cultures, so be cautious. Levels of Communicati on Intrapersonal Interpersonal It is extremely private and This takes place between two restricted to the self. It individuals in a one-on-one includes a silent conversation conversation. with the self confined as thoughts. Small Group Public This takes place only when more than two It takes place when one people are involved. It occurs between 3 and publicly addresses a large 20 individuals (Poole, 1989) communicating in gathering of people, like in a context that is both relational and social campaigns and speeches (Johnson, 1991), in which decision-making requires that members identify with the group and have an attitude of commitment to participate in interaction (Ellis, 1994). Mass It is the use of print (newspaper and magazines) and broadcast (radio and television) media channels to reach a wider coverage. The key is that you are reaching a large amount of people without it being face to face. Feedback is generally delayed with mass communication. Barriers in Communication Communication is an essential process in our lives, and it's important to understand what barriers can potentially prevent effective communication. In this part, we'll discuss common barriers in communication and how to identify and address them. What is communication barrier?

Overcoming Communication Barriers Become an engaged listener Listening well means not just understanding the words or the information being communicated, but also understanding the emotions the speaker is trying to communicate. Apply positive self-talk and perception Positivity is the best encouragement. It welcomes good vibes and pleasant outlook in all communication. Use appropriate language Tailor the words you will use based on your audience or listener. Keep it simple or understandable. Be Open Suspend your own judgment, ideas, and beliefs. Give the speaker time to develop and express his/her ideas or point before you conclude if the message has any value, little value, or none at all. Give and accept feedback Feedback keeps the communication going. Respond to what has been heard. Keep an open mind and avoid overreacting emotionally to a message or feedback. Pay attention to nonverbal signals The way you look, listen, move, and react to another person tells them more about how you’re feeling than words alone ever can. Wrap Up Any questions?
