The document discusses the communication process in 3 steps: 1) A sender encodes a message and selects a channel to transmit the message to the receiver. Channels can include speaking, writing, or electronic transmission. 2) The receiver receives the message and must decode it by mentally processing it to understand the meaning. If the receiver cannot decode the message, communication fails. 3) The communication process is not always smooth, as the message can be interfered with by barriers at any point from transmission to receipt. Barriers include a poor choice of communication method, noise, language problems, and failure to recognize nonverbal signals.

Activity 3
The Communication Process

The communication process involves a series of actions or steps that


are taken in order to establish and communicate. Some of these components
include the sending of the message, the encoding of the text, the decoding of
the message, and the recipient.
A sender is the party that sends a message. A channel of
communication must also be selected, which is the manner in which the
message is sent. Channels of communication include speaking, writing, video
transmission, audio transmission, electronic transmission through emails, text
messages and faxes and even nonverbal communication, such as body
language. The receiver is the target of her communication. The receiver must
be able to decode the message, which means mentally processing the
message into understanding. If you can't decode, the message fails.
Sometimes, a receiver will give the sender feedback, which is a message
sent by the receiver back to the sender. In other words, a sender encodes
information; the sender selects a channel of communication by which to send
the message; the receiver receives the message; the receiver decodes the
message and the receiver may provide feedback to the sender.

The process of communication, however, is not as smooth or barrier-


free as it seems. From its transmission to receipt, the message may get
interfered or disturbed with at any stage by many factors which are known as
barriers to effective communication. One of the factors is poor choice of
communication method. In addition to a poor choice of communication
method, other barriers to effective communication include noise and other
physical distractions, language problems, and failure to recognize nonverbal
signals. We will discuss these barriers of communication in a subsequent
chapter. The process of communication as such must be a continuous and
dynamic interaction, both affecting and being affected by many variables.
