9. Important Points in
Understanding the
Communication Process

10. Communication, basically, is the process of sending a message,
oral or written. Technically, it is defined as the process by which
one seeks to share meaning via the transmission of symbolic
message.
Remember these three important points in understanding
communication process:
1. Communication involves people and their relationship with
others.
2. Communication involves shared meaning or presuppositions,
which suggests that people must agree on the definition of
the idea talked about.
3. Communication involves symbols – gestures, sounds, letters,
numbers and words can only represent or approximate the
idea that they are meant to communicate.

11. Elements of Oral
Communication
Process

12. 1. Source or Encoder
The source of the
message is someone who
decides to communicate;
therefore, he is considered
the speaker or encoder. He
usually starts the
communication.

13. 2. Message
The message refers to the send
idea. It is the topic being talked
about in a conversation.

14. 3. Channel
Message is sent through a medium.
There can be several kinds of
mediums; however, in simple
conversation, our voice travelled
through the airwaves.

15. 4. Feedback
To make communication a complete
exchange process, response is necessary.
Usually this element can come from the
decoder.

16. 5. Listener or Decoder
This is someone who has receive the
message and give his own thoughts about
it. This person is called the intended
listener or decoder.

17. Communication, therefore, involves an
exchange of message among sources and receiver via
channel or medium. The different elements of the
communication process are illustrated below using
David Berlo’s SMRC model
