2. To Communicate . . .
 The Latin verb communicare means “to
make common to many, share, impart,
divide.”

3. Simply stated . . .
 When you communicate you share, or
make common, your knowledge and
ideas with someone else.
 Communication, then, is the sharing of
meaning by
sending
and receiving
symbolic cues.

4. Charles Ogen & I. A. Richard’s
Triangle of Meaning
 The interpreter
– The person who is communicating, with
words or symbols
 The symbol
– Anything to which people attach or assign
a meaning
 The referent
– The object or idea for which the symbol
stands

6. Five Levels of Public Speaking:

7. Five Levels of Public Speaking:
1) intrapersonal

8. Intrapersonal Communication
 The type of communication a person
has with himself, thus the prefix “intra-”
which means within.
 As soon as a human being awakens, he
begins an internal thought process and
dialogue, almost always silent, but
sometimes aloud.

9. Five Levels of Public Speaking:
2) interpersonal

10. Interpersonal Communication
 Interpersonal communication takes
place between two people.
 This type of communication varies
depending on the relationship between
the two individuals.

11. Five Levels of Public Speaking:
3) group

12. Group Communication
 Group communication occurs when
three or more individuals, who have a
common goal, interact either formally or
informally.

13. Five Levels of Public Speaking:
4) public

14. Public Communication
 Public communication takes place when
one or more individuals communicate
with a large group in a more “one-
directional” approach.

15. Five Levels of Public Speaking:
5) mass communication

16. Mass Communication
 Mass communication occurs when
extremely large groups receive
information, like a television audience
watching a news broadcast, as well as
the intermittent commercial advertising.

18. Linear Model of Communication

19. Linear Model of Communication
 The speaker—the sender, the encoder,
or source of the message.
The
Speaker

20. Linear Model of Communication
 Encoding—the process of putting ideas
into symbols to carry a message.

Text

21. Linear Model of Communication
 Message—ideas communicated
verbally and nonverbally.
The
Speaker
The Message
A speaker sends a message to a listener.

22. Linear Model of Communication
 Listener—the receiver or decoder of
the message
The
Speaker
The Message
A speaker sends a message to a listener.

23. Linear Model of Communication
 Decoding—the process of attaching
meanings to symbols received.

The Message

26. Problems with Linear Model
of Communication
 #1—The assumption that a person is
either the sender or a receiver of
messages.
 Actually, we perform both of these roles
simultaneously.

27. Problems with Linear Model
of Communication
 #2—The suggestion that
communication involves only one
message.
 Actually, there are as many messages
as there are communicators involved,
and the message the sender intends is
never identical to the one received.

28. Interactive Model of Communication
 When scholars began to see the
limitations of the linear model of
communication, they added other
components to the speaker, message,
and listener making a total of 7
components:
channel, feedback, environment, and
noise

29. Interactive Model of Communication
 Channel—the medium, or the way the
message is sent.

30. Interactive Model of Communication
 Feedback—includes all messages,
verbal and nonverbal, sent by listeners
to speakers.

31. Interactive Model of Communication
 Environment—the physical setting and
the occasion for communication.

32. Interactive Model of Communication
 Noise—anything that distracts from
effective communication; some form of
noise is always present.

33. Interactive Model of Communication
 Channel—the medium, or the way the
message is sent.
 Feedback—includes all messages, verbal
and nonverbal, sent by listeners to speakers.
 Environment—the physical setting and the
occasion for communication.
 Noise—anything that distracts from effective
communication; some form of noise is always
present.

34. Noise
 Physical noise—distractions
originating in the communication
environment.

35. Noise
 Physiological noise—distractions
originating in the bodies of
communicators—cold, headache,
hunger, fatigue.

36. Noise
 Psychological noise—distractions
originating in the thoughts of
communicators—anxiety, daydreaming,
worry.

37. Noise
 Physical noise—distractions originating in
the communication environment.
 Physiological noise—distractions originating
in the bodies of communicators—cold,
headache, hunger, fatigue.
 Psychological noise—distractions
originating in the thoughts of communicators
—anxiety, daydreaming, worry.
