4. • Intrapersonal communication is
defined as a person’s communication
with himself or herself. In other words,
it is communication with oneself.
• Intrapersonal communication means
“communicating to one’s own self.”
• Intrapersonal communication may
also come in different forms like
writing one’s thoughts as in a journal
or diary, where one’s thoughts and
observations are written, making
gestures while thinking, reflecting on
events that have transpired, etc.
• Internal discourse involves thinking,
concentration, and analysis, as in the
example given above when a person
analyses a situation. Daydreaming is
considered under this level.

6. 1. Open Area or Area
of Free Activity
This refers to behaviour
a n d m o t i v a t i o n t o
ourselves and others. This
i s t h e a r e a o f
communication which
contains the information
that a person knows about
himself and which others
know.
2. Blind Area
This is where others can see things in
us of which we ourselves are unaware.
In this area, a person communicates
information he is not aware of
through his actions, facial expressions,
mannerisms, and other non-verbal
clues from which others derive
inferences or conclusions.

7. 3. Hidden Area or
Avoided Area
This represents the things one
knows about himself, but of
which the group or others do
not know about or unaware
of. For one reasons or another,
he keeps this information
from them. Examples are
one’s ideas, dreams, feelings,
and experiences which he
keeps as secrets from others.
4. Unknown Area
The area of unknown activity points
to that area where neither the
individual nor others are aware of
certain behaviour or motives. Yet
we can assume their existence
because eventually some of these
things become unknown, and we
then realize that these unknown
behaviours and motives were
influencing relationships all along.

8. Interpersonal communication refers to that communication in
which persons are engaged directly with each other in the overt
and covert transmission and reception of messages.

11. Dialogue.
• A dialogues is a type of dyadic encounter where two
persons exchange significant ideas about a topic
interesting to both of them, or simply where they converse
because they enjoy each other’s company.
• One example of an informal encounter is when two friends
meet in the mall, and talk for a while. On the other hand,
an example of a formal dialogue is when a sales agent
purposely meets his client or a lawyer with his client for an
appointment.

12. Conversation.
It is a friendly and informal talk between two people.
Distinctly because of its social informality, conversation is
less purposive, less serious, and less inmate. A good
conversation is informal with no purpose and aim; flexible
because both parties have freedom in expressing ideas;
interesting since it involves the use of human interest details;
relaxing since it is tension-free; and worthwhile because
topics should be important and substantial.

13. • It involves two or more people.
• It is continuous
• It need not be face-to-face.
• It is transactional.
• It is irreversible
• It involves verbal or nonverbal cues.
• It is affected by noise.
• It involves feedback.

14. • Public communication, also known as public speaking is a
communication between a speaker and a group of people
called the audience in a structured, deliberate manner.
The number of people in the audience may range from a
few, as in a teacher discussing his lessons to his students
in a class, to thousands or even millions of listeners as in
the State of the Nation Address (SONA) of the president.

15. This means that as a speaker, you should focus on your
audience and analyse what they need. A good speaker
should see to it that his or her message is understood.
a.Know the social composition of the audience.
b.Know the audience’s attitude toward the speech.
c. Know the audience’s attitude toward the speech purpose
d.Know the audience’s attitude toward the speaker.

16. Some of the social make-up of an audience are age, sex, race,
family status, economic status, economic status, occupation,
religion, and even politics. The following information will help
you in analysing your audience.
It is important to know if the listeners will be interested in the
topic or will be apathetic about it because it will greatly influence
their perception of a speaker’s speech.

17. If possible, the speakers should give his best effort to know what
the majority thinks about his or her purpose for speaking to
them.
The attitude which the audience will have toward the speaker
may be based on the latter’s reputation in the past. Perhaps, it
may be the first time the audience are hearing him or her speak
that they may base their perception and evaluation of the
speaker from his or her behaviour during the speech.

18. Critical thinking defined as the process of quantitatively and
qualitatively assessing the information people have
accumulated, and how they use that information to solve
problems and new patterns of understanding. In public
communication, critical thinking occurs when the audience
or the listeners accumulate the ideas imparted to them by
the speaker, assess whether the information given is valid,
decide what to believe, form their judgment and apply the
new learning.

19. Every speaker is expected to behave ethically. Ethics is
defined as a set of moral principles or rules of behaviour that
determines what is right or wrong. As a speaker, you are
morally obliged to be ethical, meaning you should be truthful
in everything you say.

20. Public speaking is empowering because it puts the speaker in
a position where he can control the situation. Thru public
speaking, he is able to develop his ability to think critically,
and to influence the behaviour and attitude of other people.

22. It is the most popular group discussion. It is an
informal but organized conversation in front of a
larger audience. It is an exchange of thought
among several participants of usually about three
to four or more. A panel discussion can be used to
discuss topics which are too complex to be taken
by just one person, that several people are
involved.

23. It is a single discourse or speech given by an expert
before an audience. It is an effective medium of
public discussion meeting used in imparting
information to the audience. It is a fifty-to-sixty
minute presentation where the audience is given a
chance to participate after the lecture. It is a
discussion type because its purpose is to instruct,
to inform or to impart and to provide the audience
a clear idea about the topic that needs to be
communicated.

24. Forum like debate is another type of public
discussion meeting. It is a participation of the
entire group after a planned program of discussion
or lecture has been held and the balance of the
time is turned over to the group for comments,
questions, and exchange of ideas. It is a public
meeting place for open discussion or voicing of
ideas, such as a newspaper or a radio or television
program.

25. This is a meeting or conference for a discussion of
a topic, especially one in which the participants
form an audience and make presentations. It is a
series of individual presentations which address
different aspects of a single topic, and which is
usually followed by questions from the audience. It
is from a Latin word which means “a drinking
party”, a party where the host served his guests
fine wine.

26. Debate is an exchange of thoughts or arguments
by two opposing teams. It is a means of
encouraging people like students as you, to think
critically and to express your views or opinions
about a topic. Just like any other small group
discussion type, debate has an objective or goal,
and that is for the opposing teams to persuade or
convince the audience that their ideas are right or
are more acceptable than the other.

27. This is a form of academic discussion where
participants agree on a specific topic to discuss and
debate. Each person is given equal right to
participate, as illustrated by the idea of a circular
layout referred to in the term round table.
