Channel
A channel is the vehicle that carries a message
from the communicator to the receiver. There
are numerous channels of communication-

such as TV, radio, newspapers, books, and so

Noise
is an interruption that can occur at any point during the communication process, rendering it ineffective. One major cause that interferes with message reception is noise from the roadside, constant chattering of individuals outside the communication act, blaring loudspeaker, faulty transmission, and so on. Noise can also occur in other forms, such as poor
handwriting, heavy accent or soft speech, communication in a poorly lit room, and so on. It is necessary to eliminate or reduce noise as much as possible for smooth and effective communication.

Response Feedback Loop

is the receiver's response or acknowledgement to the communicator's message. Unless the receiver responds is the exchange possible. Even through fluttering eyelids,
raising an eyebrow, making a face, organizing a point, and asking for clarification, the communicator and receiver shape and reshape the message until the meaning becomes
clear. In this way, both communication participants interact and constantly exchange roles. The receiver responds naturally, directly, and immediately in face-to-face
communication. This allows the communicator to improve and make his communication more effective. Thus, feedback allows you to assess what is correct or incorrect
about a particular communication. It aids in the regulation of a conversation between two or more people, as well as the stimulation and reinforcement of an idea.
