TYPES OF

COMMUNICATION

Prepared by: ENGR. JONAYKA A. TAPIADOR

COMMUNICATION
 COMMUNICATION

Communication is a two-way street. This

means that both the person communicating and
the person being communicated to have to
participate. Communication happens when
information is shared between two people.
 T YPES OF COMMUNICATION

There are five main categories or

communication styles:
1. VERBAL
2. NONVERBAL
3. WRITTEN
4. VISUAL
5. LISTENING
 VERBAL

Verbal
communication is the
use of language to
transfer information
through speaking or sign
language. It is one of the
most common types,
often used during
presentations, video
conferences and phone
calls, meetings and one-
on-one conversations.
Verbal communication is
important because it is
efficient.
NONVERBAL

Nonverbal communication is
the use of body language,
gestures and facial
expressions to convey
information to others. It can
be used both intentionally
and unintentionally. For
example, you might smile
unintentionally when you
hear a pleasing or enjoyable
idea or piece of information.
Nonverbal communication is
helpful when trying to
understand others’ thoughts
and feelings.
 WRITTEN

Written communication
is the act of writing, typing or
printing symbols like letters
and numbers to convey
information. It is helpful
because it provides a record
of information for reference.
Writing is commonly used to
share information through
books, pamphlets, blogs,
letters, memos and more.
Emails and chats are a
common form of written
communication in the
workplace.
VISUAL

Visual communication
is the act of using
photographs, art, drawings,
sketches, charts and graphs
to convey information.
Visuals are often used as an
aid during presentations to
provide helpful context
alongside written and/or
verbal communication.
Because people have
different learning styles,
visual communication might
be more helpful for some to
consume ideas and
information.
 LISTENING

This may come as a

surprise, but often times
listening is the most important
part of communicating.
Listening is not the same as
simply hearing. When you listen
to someone speak, you are
engaged with them, and making
an ef fort to understand exactly
what they are trying to say.
Listening is a crucial skill in the
workplace. When people don’t
listen to each other, the entire
communication process breaks
down. In order to be an effective
communicator you must first
learn to be a good listener.
 ACTIVE LISTENING

You can watch the video link below that will help you and
provide you tips on how to improve your listening skills.

INTRAPERSONAL AND
INTERPERSONAL
COMMUNICATION
INTRAPERSONAL VS INTERPERSONAL
 INTRAPERSONAL COMMUNICATION

Intrapersonal
communication is the
communication done
with oneself. Included
are the thoughts,
assessments,
contemplations, and
feelings that are
associated with one’s
inner communication.
UNIQUELY INTRAPERSONAL

Self-Concept:
One’s own self
concept is at the center
of intrapersonal
communication. It
includes an evaluation
of one’s own beliefs,
values and attitudes,
and how that evaluation
plays into what occurs
in the outer world.
 UNIQUELY INTRAPERSONAL

Perception:
Perception is how
people interpret what is
going on around them.
Perception can
influence intrapersonal
communication.
UNIQUELY INTRAPERSONAL

Expectation:
Expectations are based
upon intrapersonal
communication with
one’s own self, and are
predictions of what will
happen based on
perceptions of what
has happened.
 INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION

Interpersonal
communication is the
communication where
exchange of ideas and
information happens
between two or more
people by way of any
channel. This can be
face to face, online,
over the phone, or in
written forms as well.
PRINCIPLES OF INTERPERSONAL

Inescapable:
Even when we hold
some thought inside
us and do not let it
out verbally, it will
take its form in other
nonverbal aspects of
communication such
as mood, attitude, or
body language.
 PRINCIPLES OF INTERPERSONAL

Irreversible:
Once something is
written, said, or
submitted, it cannot
be taken back. It is
forever in the minds
of others.
PRINCIPLES OF INTERPERSONAL

Complex:
There is a high
chance of
miscommunication
between sender and
receiver, therefore
interpersonal
communication is
complex.
 PRINCIPLES OF INTERPERSONAL

Contextual:
Context is an integral
part of this type of
communication, and
the context can be
situational,
environmental, and
relational.
 INTERPERSONAL SKILLS

Here are some skills that highly

intrapersonal people have:
1. VISUALIZATION
2. RECOGNIZE NEGATIVITY
3. COMPASSION
4. DECISION MAKING
VISUALIZATION

This is the ability

to see things in the
mind, how they are
meant to be or how you
plan them. Many
athletes, artists, and
politicians have great
visualization skills and
can ‘see’ themselves in
a situation, and make
plans for how to
succeed in that
situation.
 RECOGNIZE NEGATIVIT Y

When things start

becoming negative in
your mind, it is
important to stop and
realize that it is
happening. Being
aware of negative
thoughts, and having
the power to turn them
around is an important
intrapersonal skill.
COMPASSION

Being able to
see another person’s
perspective, and
therefore have
compassion for them
is an intrapersonal
skill as well. Putting
aside your own views
and your own
experiences is a part
of having compassion.
 DECISION MAKING

When it comes
time to make a
decision, an
intrapersonal person
has the ability to scan
potential options,
visualize them, and
make the right
decision. The ability to
do so without stress
and inner conflict is a
skill that you can
achieve with practice.
ENGINEERING AND
SCIENTIFIC
COMMUNICATION
 SCIENCE COMMUNICATION

The SCIENCE COMMUNICATION will be

presented by video links in YouTube. It is
broken down into three stages that will be
helpful to you especially in presenting
your future science works to any audience.
The next slide will show you a summary of
the 10 Course video. Make sure to take
notes of the important parts of the videos.
