Differentiate the various models of communication (EN11/12OC-Ia-3). 1
differentiate between the various models of communication; and explain each model of communication.
How do the models of communication help in improving communication?
The class will be divided into three groups. Your teacher will give each of the groups some puzzle pieces. Each group should put the puzzle pieces together and stick them on the board. Then, you have to explain what you think the model is for.
Elements of Communication Review Participants the sender and the receiver Message the main point of having communication Feedback the response of the receiver Context the interrelated conditions that affect the message Channel the means of delivering the message
Model of communication conceptual representation that is used to explain the communication process Each model offers a different perspective on the communication process.
Linear communication model presents communication as a one-way activity in which information flows from the sender to the receiver shows only a passive receiver feedback - not a part of the process
Interactive communication model shows communication as a two-way activity The sender and the receiver have the same role in the activity: either one comes up with an idea, sends a message, and reacts to it. involves feedback may also include noise, an element that affects the interpretation of the message
Transactional communication model presents communication as a simultaneous activity senders and receivers - capable of both sending and receiving messages anytime or at the same time feedback - includes nonverbal cues such as gestures, tone of voice, or body language takes into account that communicators react to the situation based on their own background The diverse perceptions and backgrounds of the communicators influence their response to a particular communication situation.

The interactive communication model depicts communication as a/an ______________ activity in which the sender and the receiver have the same role. 6.

Values Integration How will you make use of your knowledge of the communication models to communicate effectively?
Form groups of five. On half of a manila paper, create your own model of communication based on what you have learned. The model of communication you create may be based on the linear, interactive, or transactional model of communication. Present your work to the class and explain why you chose to present the communication process in that way. Synthesis Activity
Assignment Recall a time when you had a disagreement with someone. Now think about the transactional model of communication and how it takes into account the background and experiences of the participants. Then, write about the disagreement you had, what caused the disagreement, and how it could have been avoided.
