 WHAT IS
COMMUNICATION?
Communication is the process of exchanging information, ideas, thoughts,
or feelings between individuals or groups through various channels such as
spoken or written language, body language, gestures, and visual
representations.

It is a fundamental aspect of human interaction that enables understanding,

01 Verbal communication is one of the most common and familiar

forms of human interaction. It involves the use of spoken words
and active listening to convey messages between individuals.

Non-verbal Communication

 THE
COMMUNICATION
PROCESS MODEL
The communication process model emphasizes the dynamic and interactive nature
of communication, with both the sender and receiver actively participating in the
exchange of information.

 COMMUNICATION
PROCESS MODEL
The communication process model is a fundamental framework that
illustrates how messages are exchanged between a sender and a receiver.

It outlines the sequential steps involved in successful communication,

providing insights into how information is encoded, transmitted, decoded,
and how feedback is received.

The communication process model emphasizes the dynamic and interactive

nature of communication, with both the sender and receiver actively
participating in the exchange of information.
