ARISTOTLE’S LINEAR MODEL Was proposed before 300 B.C. and was considered to be the first communication model. IKDL  SHANNON AND WEAVER MODEL Demonstrates the message that was encoded by the sender and transfers it to the receiver through an industrial channel like telephone and telegraph. OSGOOD AND SCHRAMM MODEL shows that the receiver plays In 1954, Wilbur Schramm the passive role in the (1907-1987) created a model communication process as showing that both the sender sender plays the primary role and the receiver can transmit that sends messages and receive the message The message was converted making it a cycle of by the sender into codes that communication. are sent through a medium. It involves encoding where the Decoding of messages was sender translates the message done by the receiver before and decoding where the understanding and receiver creates meaning out interpreting it. of the sent message. In some cases, a receptor is an improved version of machine can act as a decoder communication model that although the channel can have shows both sender and noise and the receiver might receiver can be the source of not have a capacity to decode information and can be both which might cause some receivers of information difficulties in the process. IKDL  The idea was adapted by another theorist Charles Egerton Osgood (1916-1991) thus the theory was termed Schramm and Osgood model of communication. The linear model of communication was replaced by Osgood as circular while Schramm added the field of experience. The field of experience refers to the background, values, beliefs and attitude that the person has that affects his/her way of communicating. IKDL
