A Brief History of Communication (commercial)
Communication: Sender/Receiver: Abbott & Costello skit
The communication process starts with a person getting an IDEA (or reason to communicate). We will call this person: the SENDER.
1. The sender comes up with an idea or reason to communicate.Why should I care?
2. The sender ENCODES this idea with words or symbols
3. The sender chooses a type of communication and sends his/her message to a RECEIVER.
4. After receiving the message, the receiver DECODES the message.
5. The receiver receives the original message or idea.
if communication is to continue as conversation, the receiver becomes the sender and starts the process again, responding to what was originally communicated.
