Uses of Communication

For Transfer of Ideas


To transfer ideas from one person to another, communication plays a vital role. Every human
being has some ideas that are unique to his own mind. To make the transition from just a thought to an
implementation, it requires effectual communication.
Communication is the foundation of all human relationship. It is described as:

For Interacting With Society


It is very important that we interact with our surroundings and people living in the surroundings.
Whenever we talk to someone, we, unknowingly react to his/her questions, actions or comments. This is
communication. While corresponding to someone in any way, we are actually communicating. Healthy
communication is essential for a healthy society.

For Education
To educate someone, we need to communicate the ideas in the syllabus or the study material to
the student. Education involves a collection of all kinds of communication i.e., audio, video, books and
lectures. However, herein the deal is not just to communicate, but to communicate effectively. Inefficient
communication can lead to transfer of ambiguous knowledge.

To Update Oneself
In the modern world, nothing is more important than staying up-to-date. Only through proper
channels of communication can people be updated with current affairs and important events across the
globe. Communication is the actual transfer of information through various mediums in such a way that it
caters to the needs of people from different strata of life. News can actually stand for as a collection of
information from the 4 directions, i.e. North, East, West and South, that, in turn, is delivered to us through
various communication channels.
For Entertainment
Entertainment, today, is mostly based on the channels of mass communication, like films and
television. Moreover, theatre and other arts also communicate certain ideas to its audience. Internet is
another common platform for entertainment, which again is a mode of communication. In short, we can
safely conclude that communication and entertainment are entwined in today’s world.
To Understand the World
Unless we communicate with the world, we will never understand the way things function and
how things are piled up and related to one another. People are just a fragment amongst these things. We
need to interact with the environment in order to understand life.

Role of Communication in the Society

Communication is main basis to make society. No communication, no society can be made.


Society is not merely the collection of people or crowd, rather than society is a Web work of human
relations. These relations are made by communication only.
