Question 4

imagines, creates, and sends the message. In a public speaking
situation, the source is the person giving the speech. He or she conveys the message by sharing new information with the audience. The speaker also conveys a message through his or her tone of voice, body language, and choice of clothing. This process of turning thoughts into communication is called encoding. imagines, creates, and sends the message. In a public speaking situation, the source is the person giving the speech.

Answer 4

Source

Question 5

The process of turning thoughts into communication.

Answer 5

Encoding

Question 6

is the stimulus or meaning produced by the source for the
receiver or audience. When you plan to give a speech or write a report, your message may seem to be only the words you choose that will convey your meaning. But that is just the beginning. The words are brought together with grammar and organization. You may choose to save your most important point for last. The message also consists of the way you say it—in a speech, with your tone of voice, your body language, and your appearance—and in a report, with your writing style, punctuation, and the headings and formatting you choose. In addition, part of the message may be the environment or context you present it in and the noise that might make your message hard to hear or see.

Answer 6

Message

Question 7

is the way in which a message or messages travel between source
and receiver (What Is Communication?, 2012). There are multiple communication channels available to us today. These include face-to-face conversations, letters, telephone calls, text messages, email, the Internet (including social media such as Facebook and Twitter), blogs, tweets radio and TV, written letters, brochures and reports (SkillsYouNeed, 2020) and so forth.

Answer 7

Channel

Question 8

receives the message from the source, analyzing and interpreting
the message in ways both intended and unintended by the source. In order to receive a message, she or he listens, sees, touches, smells, and/or tastes to receive a message. The process of turning communication into thoughts is called decoding. They decode the message.

Answer 8

Receiver

Question 9

When the receiver responds to the source, intentionally or unintentionally, she/he is giving ___. It is composed of messages the receiver sends back to the source. Verbal or nonverbal, all these feedback signals allow the source to see how well, how accurately (or how poorly and inaccurately) the message was received. It also provides an opportunity for the receiver or audience to ask for clarification, to agree or disagree, or to indicate that the source could make the message more interesting.

Answer 9

Feedback

Question 10

is the atmosphere, physical and psychological, where an
individual sends and receives messages. This can include the tables, chairs, lighting, and sound equipment that are in the room. The room itself is an example of the environment. The environment can also include factors like formal dress that may indicate whether a discussion is open and caring or more professional and formal. People may be more likely to have an intimate conversation when they are physically close to each other, and less likely when they can only see each other from across the room. In that case, they may text each other, itself an intimate form of communication. The choice to text is influenced by the environment.

Answer 10

Environment

Question 11

involves the setting, scene, and expectations of the individuals involved. A professional communication context may involve business suits (environmental cues) that directly or indirectly influence expectations of language and behavior among the participants.

Answer 11

Context

Question 12

This is anything that blocks or changes the source’s intended
meaning of the message. For example, if you drove a car to work or school, chances are you were surrounded by noise. Car horns, billboards, or perhaps the radio in your car interrupted your thoughts, or your conversation with a passenger.

Answer 12

Interference or noise

Question 13

is what happens when your thoughts occupy your attention while you are hearing, or reading, a message. Stereotypes, reputations, assumptions, and biases are examples of psychological noise
which affect communication. Interference can come from other sources, too. Perhaps you are hungry, and your attention to your current situation interferes with your ability to listen. Maybe the office is hot and stuffy. Not all noise is bad, but noise interferes with the communication process. For example, your cell phone ringtone may be a welcome noise to
you, but it may interrupt the communication process in class and bother your classmates.

Answer 13

Psychological noise

Question 14

Enumerate the 4 Models of the Communication Process

Answer 14

1. Harold Lasswell’s Communication Model
2. Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver’s Communication Model
3. David Berlo’s SMCR Communication Model

Question 15

shows a one-way transmission of information and simply illustrates a how communication starts from a sender who transmits their message through a channel to an intended receiver, consequently with a corresponding effect. These channels may come in a form of spoken medium or through digital or technological instruments like phones, computers, and the like. This model attempts to answer the question, “Who says what to whom, through what medium, and with what effect?”

Answer 15

1. Harold Lasswell’s Communication Model

Question 16

which takes into account the concept of noise. Much like in Lasswell’s, this model also indicates how communication starts with the information source who then sends a message with the use of a transmitter (channel). The signals that are sent and received can vary depending on the method of communication. However, the difference of the models comes from the incorporation of the “noise.” Noise refers to anything that may interfere – stop or alter – the message being carried.

Answer 16

2. Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver’s Communication Model

Question 17

Years later, a person developed the previous model shifting the focus to the context, environment, and other factors surrounding the participants involved in the communication process. These factors include the following:

• Communication skills such as reading, writing, speaking, listening, and watching.
• Knowledge about a subject or topic
• Attitude toward the topic and the audience
• Social and cultural aspects that influence the content of the message and the
manner by which it is sent

Answer 17

3. David Berlo’s SMCR Communication Model

Question 18

5 Forms of Communication

Answer 18

1. Intrapersonal Communication
2. Interpersonal Communication
3. Group Communication
4. Public Communication
5. Mass Communication

Question 19

It is a form of communication with oneself using internal vocalization or reflective thinking (Communication in the Real World, 2010). We exercise this more often than we consciously remember. We do it every time we quietly decide on what to, when we contemplate on what decisions to make, or even make observations or formulate opinions about the things around us which we keep to ourselves.

Answer 19

Intrapersonal Communication

Question 20

is a form of communication between two different people who may or may not have a direct relationship with each other but are mutually and actively part of the communication process. This can be planned or unplanned, but since it is interactive, it is usually more structured and influenced by social expectations (Communication in the Real World, 2010).

Answer 20

Interpersonal Communication

Question 21

It is a type of communication between three or more people interacting to achieve a specific objective or certain goal. This form of communication happens often during teambased tasks mostly done in school works or organizational endeavors.

Answer 21

Group Communication

Question 22

This is a sender-focused form of communication in which one person is typically responsible for conveying information to an audience. This form is usually seen during campaigns, speeches, or other public speaking events. Among the other forms of communication discussed so far, this is the most formal, intentional, and goal-oriented type.

Answer 22

Public Communication

Question 23

Answer 23

Mass Communication
