2. How you
communicate
…
Your first cry –announced
your arrival into this world
Then your mother
understood that when you
cry –you are hungry and
gave you milk in responseAs years passed by, you
started pronouncing short
words and responded by
waving your hands or
nodding your head most of
the time, laughing out loud.
Today, you can act out,
speak, and write to tell
everyone what you think
and feel.

3. Two ways to communicate
Use words to
say what you
want to say
Express
yourself
through
gestures and
facial
expressions

4. Humans are
social beings –
they live to
interact regularly
with others

5. In history, you will find that early
man could not speak as you do
today.
Records show that people have used
various communication techniques
such as the use of symbols, gestures,
sounds, drawings, and sign
languages (Littlejohn, 2002 as cited
in Amudavalli, n.d.)
Words and languages developed
much later in human history

6. Over the years,
communication has
progressed
tremendously.
Language developed
side by side with
technology.
In the 21
st
century,
the power of
communication in
building relationships
and the community at
large.

7. Nature of
communication
❑Communication is a two-
way process of connecting
to both living and non-
living things. It is also a
means of sharing and
exchanging message,
information, ideas, and
feelings for mutual
understanding (Gregoriom,
J.C., 2015).

8. Nature of
communication
1.Communication is a
message understood.
For communication to take
place, consider two
conditions:
“Where came first.”
▪There should be a clear
message.
▪The message must be
understood by the receiver
for whom it is meant.

9. Nature of
communication
2. Communication is social
interaction through messages.
Example:
It is very warm today.
▪Without interactions, a
society cannot survive.
▪Social interaction is always
through messages.

10. Without communication, all forms
of human relationships will vanish
and die.
Communication is therefore crucial
in building and maintaining
relationships.

11. PROCESS
OF
Communica
tion

12. Process of
Communica
tion
The speaker
generates an
idea.
The speaker
encodes an
idea or
converts the
idea into
words or
actions.
The speaker
transmits or
sends out a
message.
The receiver
gets the
message.
The receiver
decodes or
interprets
the message
based on the
context.
The receiver
sends or
provides
feedback.

13. 1.Speaker-the source of information or message
2.Message-the information, ideas, or thoughts conveyed by
the speaker in words or in actions
3.Encoding-the process of converting the message into
words, actions, or other forms that the speaker
understands
4.Channel-the medium or the means, such as personal or
non-personal, verbal or nonverbal, in which the encoded
message is conveyed
5.Decoding-the process of interpreting the encoded
message of the speaker by the receiver
6.Receiver-the recipient of the message, or someone who
decodes the message
7.Feedback-the reactions, responses, or information
provided by the receiver
Context-the environment where communication takes

14. Process of
communicat
ion
Communication begins when the
speaker or source of
communication responds to a
stimulus and decides to encode or
transmit it in the form of a
message (or a “code”) through a
particular channel or means of
communication.
The receiver decodes or interprets
the message sent and responds
accordingly based on his
interpretation of the message.
This response comes in the form
of a feedback sent to the original
source of communication (sender)

15. Process of communication
As the
communication
transaction
continues, the
sender and
receiver may
exchange roles
until
understanding is
achieved.
Barriers to
communication
sometimes block
the transmission
of the message
thereby creating
misunderstanding.

16. Functions of

bodily actions are authoritative and firm
Example: The teacher reads and discusses classroom
policies to her students.

chosen, and some nonverbal cues like touching, hand
holding or hugging, putting an arm around someone’s
shoulder are evident

friend, Cathy.

23. 5. Information Dissemination
-to convey information, words like “po and opo” are
used, simple words for children, not using too much
jargon, actual demonstration, and showing pictures or
video
Example: The Geometry teacher lectures about
mathematical concepts.
