Encodes Decodes Source Message Channel Receiver Communication Skills Attitudes Knowledge Social System Culture Content Elements Treatment Structure Code Hearing Seeing Touching Smelling Tasting Communication Skills Attitudes Knowledge Social System Culture

11. Communication Skills- An individual must possess excellent communication skills to make his communication effective and create an impact among the listeners. Attitude- It is rightly said that if one has the right attitude, the whole world is at his feet . There is actually no stopping for the person if he has the right attitude. Knowledge- Here knowledge is not related to the educational qualification of the speaker or the number of degrees he has in his portfolio. Social System- The displeasure of the listeners was simply because the speaker ignored the social set up of the place where he was communicating. He forgot the sentiments , cultural beliefs, religious feelings of the second party. Culture- Culture refers to the cultural background of the community or the listeners where the speaker is communicating or delivering his speech. SOURCE

12. Content- Content is actually the matter or the script of the conversation. It is in simpler words, the backbone of any communication. Element- The speech must be coupled with lots of hand movements, gestures, postures , facial expressions, body movements to capture the attention of the listeners and make the speech impressive. Treatment- Treatment is actually the way one treats his message and is conveys to the listeners. One must understand how to present his message so that the message is conveyed in the most accurate form. Structure- A message cannot be expressed in one go. It has to be properly structured in order to convey the message in the most desired form. Code- Your body movements, your language, your expressions, your gestures are actually the codes of the message and have to be accurate otherwise the message gets distorted and the recipient will never be able to decode the correct information.

13. All the five senses are the channels which help human beings to communicate with others. CHANNEL

14. When the message reaches the receiver, he tries to understand what the listener actually wants to convey and then responds accordingly. This is also called as decoding. The receiver should be on the same platform as the speaker for smooth flow of information and better understanding of the message. He should possess good communication skills to understand what the speaker is trying to convey. He should have the right attitude to understand the message in a positive way. His knowledge should also be at par with the listener and must know about the subject. He should also be from the same social and cultural background just like the speaker. RECEIVER

16. 4 Schramm’s Model of Communication He emphasizes that the communication is incomplete unless and until the sender receives a feedback from the recipient. Schramm believed that communication is a two-way process between the first party and the second party.

17. 5 Helical Model of Communication The Helical Model of communication was proposed by Frank Dance in 1967 to throw some more light on communication process. Dance thought of communication process similar to helix. According to the Helical model of communication, the process of communication evolves from the very birth of an individual and continues till the existing moment.

18. Public Speaking Involves communicating information before a large audience . There are five elements of public speaking, and it basically boils down to who is saying what to whom using what medium with what effect. In other words, who is the source of the message.
