PURPOSIVE COMMUNICATION Fundamental of Communication  Learning Outcomes At the end of this lesson, the learner is expected to: 1.Reflect and review the value and meaning of communication through picture analysis. 2.Recognize the elements and models of communication in creating own communication model. 3.Analyze the communication process using a problem solving organizer. COMMUNICATION is an exchange of ideas builds human relationships understand each other Transmit messages verbally & non verbally. Communication, its development involves many elements: Sometimes it begins with (stimuli) idea transferred by a speaker (sender) then through verbal and non verbal (channel) to a listener (receiver) who usually gives a reaction (feedback). It is not always smooth because of “noise”. To further understand the process aspect of communication, communicators must be familiar with the models. (Models are the pattern or flow in a particular kind of communication.) Development of communication is from linear to interactive. EXPLORING CONTEXT OF COMMUNICATION It is essential for the individuals to develop a structure of elements of communication. When the individuals develop the structure in terms of the elements of communication, they are able to understand that in order to carry out the communication processes in an effective manner and generate the desired outcomes. It is indispensable to augment one’s understanding in terms of the elements. The important elements of communication are: verbal messages, non verbal messages, clarity of thought and expression, precision, and appropriateness, conciseness, conducive environment, channel, feedback, completeness, and context. These elements enable the individuals to acquire a satisfactory understanding in terms of the ways in which communication processes can be put into operation in a well-organized and agreeable manner. ELEMENTS OF COMMUNICATION 1. The Context of communication refers to the environment where the interaction happens or takes place. It is the prime element of every communication process that controls the communication process among senders and receivers. Here are its forms: Physical Context is the place where communication happens or occurs. Psychological Context is what the communicators bring to the interaction such as their needs, desires, values, personality, etc. Social Context is a personal matter. It involves the relationship of the speaker and the listeners including the expectation involved in that relationship.  Cultural Context includes all the learned behaviors and rules that affect the interaction such as the body movements, facial expression, and practices. 2. The Sender (or the speaker) holds an idea that needs to be conveyed as a message in oral or written form influence by experiences, knowledge, skills, situation, purpose, and attitude toward self and the listener. 3. Encoding is the part of transforming abstract opinion and ideas into symbols such as words, pictures, signs, and marks. 4. The Message is any idea delivered by the sender to the receiver. 5. The Channel is the medium or means through which the message is transmitted. 6. The Noise is also known as the barrier that affects the message from being sent, receive, or understood. a. Physical Noise is the noise from the environment such as beeping cars, talking people, ringing phones, barking dogs, etc. b. Semantic Noise is a different understanding of the meaning of the message sent which considers language, culture, or hand writing. c. Psychological Noise depends on one’s concept or mentality towards the message or the speaker such as prejudices, narrow mindedness, and biases. d. Physiological Noise occurs when the communicator is disturbed by his or her state of health or physiological issues. e. Technical Noise is present in any form of technology. This connection is one of the examples of technical noise, which can be cause by poor internet connection or empty battery of a laptop or mobile phone. f. Cultural Noise occurs when cultural expectations, etiquette, attitudes, and values differ. 7. The Situation is the time and place in which communication occurs. Communication adapts to the setting. 8. Decoding is the process of translating an encoded symbol into an ordinary understandable language in contrast to the encoder. 9. The Receiver (or the listener) decodes the conveyed message. 10.The Feedback is the receiver’s message that he or she sends to the source in response to the sender’s message. COMMUNICATION MODELS A model is a visual representation of the communication process to understand clearly the roles of each element. THREE MODELS OF THE COMMUNICATION 1. Linear Communication Model a. It is unidirectional model. The process of moving in one direction only, which means the speaker is sending a message to the receiver with or without effect.  b. It presents a simple communication act. The linear model does not look like a process. Instead, it is a transmission only of a cause and effect or also known as one way causality. c. It involves persuasion, not mutual understanding. The linear model promotes influence or advise rather than cultivating a mutual understanding among communicators. d. It values psychological effects over social effects. The linear model concentrates on the psychological effects (such as the individual understanding of the message) of the communicators rather than the social effects (like the relationship among communicators). 2. Interactive Communication Model This model recognizes the involvement of more than one participant at the same time using two directional communication known as “feedback loop”. 3, Transactional Communication Model The transaction model generates social expectancies in communal, relative, and ethnic context among communicators. Here, the exchange of messages create relationships, form intercultural alliances, shape self-concepts, and engaged with others in dialogue to create communities. A. Social Context refers to the stated rules or unstated norms that guide communication. B. Relational Context involves the social history and relationship between/among people. C. Cultural Context incorporates the aspects of human identity specifically the sexual characteristic, ethnic group, way of life, sexual orientation, social class, and skill. LESSON 2 - Communication Principles Learning Outcomes 1. Describe the fundamentals of interpersonal communication with an image; 2. Distinguish the communication principles by sharing an experience 3. Apply fundamental and principles of communication in a virtual talk show. Examining Context The concept of communication should be clear to all kinds of communicators. They should increase their knowledge of communication and improve their communication skills through time. These are the fundamentals of interpersonal communication; Communication is inevitable. Communication is irreversible. Communication is complex. Exploring Context Through time, the principles of communication are influenced by factors which are important in making the communication process worthwhile and efficient. It is vital for individuals to augment their understanding of communication principles. Image by Spring Arbor University Online 9 Communication Principles Into Operation As Suggested by Kapur (2020) 1.
