THE PROCESS OF

COMMUNICATION
The Process of Communication
1. The speaker develops an idea to be
sent.
2. The speaker encodes the idea or
converts it to words or actions.
3. The speaker transmits or sends out the
idea using a specific medium or channel.
4. The receiver gets the message and
decodes or interprets it.
5. The receiver provides or sends
feedback.

● At any point of the communication


process, noise may take place and
hinder the flow of communication
process.
The Elements in The Process of
Communication
1. SENDER
The sender is the one who initiates the message
that needs to be transmitted. He sends the
message that may be in different forms such as
pictures, symbols,postures, gestures, or even
just a smile. After generating the idea, he sends
it in such a manner that can be understood
clearly by the receiver.
2. MESSAGE

Message refers to the information


intended to be communicated by words
as in speech, letters, pictures, or symbols.
It can be verbal or non-verbal. It is the
content the sender wants to convey to the
receiver.
3. ENCODING

It is the process of expressing the idea


into appropriate medium. It may be verbal
or non-verbal. The sender may put the
message into a series of symbols, words,
pictures or gestures.
4. CHANNEL

It refers the medium or passage through


which encoded message is passed to the
receiver. It may be transmitted through
face-to-face communication, telephone,
radio, television, memorandum, or
computer.
5. RECEIVER
- refers to whom the message is meant
for. He plays a significant role in the
communication process like the sender. He
needs to comprehend the message sent. His
translation of the message received depends
on his/her knowledge of the subject matter of
the message, experience, and relationship
with the sender.
6. DECODING

It means translating the encoded


message into a language that can be
understood by the receiver. After
receiving the message, the receiver
interprets it and tries to understand it.
7. FEEDBACK

It refers to the response of the receiver to


the message sent to him/her by the
sender. Feedback ensures that the
message has been effectively encoded
and decoded.
NOISE

It is a hindrance to communication.
This can take place at any step in the
entire communication process. Noise
is considered as a barrier to effective
communication.
