Communication: An Overview
Nature of communication
According to Wikipedia, Communication (from Latin "communis" which means
"commons") To be common means "to come together" or "to commune" meaning to share
something in common. Communication is the act of conveying messages from one entity or group
to another through the use of mutually understood signs, symbols and semiotic rules.
The channel of communication can be visual, auditory, tactile/haptic (example - Braille
system), olfactory, electromagnetic, or biochemical. Human communication is unique for its
extensive use of abstract language. The purpose of communication is to hear and be heard. As
Paul Watzlawick's law says "You cannot not communicate." (Source - https://en.m.wikipedia.org)
When we communicate, we send messages that are received and understood through
the symbols that are used. These symbols are shared in a specific culture, they maybe verbal

such as spoken or written words or non verbal such as gestures, facial expressions, and
appearances.
Responding to these symbols used in meaningful communication through various
appropriate channels fulfills its purpose of making connections. (Source - www.quora.com )
Purposive communication is about writing, speaking and presenting to different audiences
and for various reasons/purposes. (Source - https://ched.gov.ph)
Purposive communication is a systematic arrangement of symbols used by individuals to
create a meaning. It serves five major purpose: to inform, to express feelings, to imagine, to
Influence and to meet social expectations. Each of these purposes is reflected in a form
of communication. (Source - www.quora.com )

sounds and words to express a feeling. speaking, presenting verbally or by exchange of words
use in this kind of communication.

Non verbal communication describes the processes of conveying a type of information in
a form of non-linguistic representations. This prefers a material to communicate like writing. This

her house today.
Examples of non-verbal communication include haptic communication, chronemic
communication, gestures, body language, facial expressions, eye contact,etc.
(Source - https://en.m.wikipedia.org)
Visual communication - you use drawings or pictures that can visually explain what you
want to convey. Most people rely to this because it uses signs, graphic designs and countless

Process of Communication
Communication is a process of exchanging verbal and non-verbal messages. It is a continuous
process.
1. Encoding - is everything that goes inside the brain of an individual
- involves the sender who, grounded by communicative intentions and goals,
decides on assigning codes.
- it is a systematic arrangement of symbols used by individuals to create meaning.
2. Transmission - is the process by which the sender, having assigned codes to come up with
thought symbols (message) that are also comprehensible by the participants of the
communication, transmits or sends message to its recipient.
3. Receiving - having been submitted through sound waves and light waves, it comes from the
sender then reaches the receiver. it is assumed that the receiver's attention is to focus
on the communication at hand to facilitate better understanding of the message
transported by the sender.
4. Decoding - is the process by which the receiver interprets or assigns meanings to the codes
transported by the source. The receiver tries to give meanings to these symbols which
may be literal or may give associations depending on knowledge and/or experience.
5. Responding - response is anticipated by the sender from the receiver. Also called as
feedback.
Components of Communication Process
1. Sender- the one who initiates the communication

SUBJECT: GEED 10063 PURPOSIVE
COMMUNICATION
COMPILED BY: REYNALDO C. CASTRO, LPT
2. Receiver - provides the sender with feedback which may prompt the sender to clarify the
message or signal to carry on as planned.
3. Message - is made up of the ideas and feelings that a sender-receiver wants to share with
others.
a. Verbal symbols - expressed through words
b. Non-verbal symbols - expressed through gestures, inflection, tone, etc.
4. Channel - are means through which we transmit the message in either vocal or non-vocal
messages.
a. Vocal messages - are verbal and spoken
b. Non-vocal messages - may be expressed in words or non-verbal symbols.
5. Feedback - the behavioral response of the sender-receiver to each other. It is the information
that comes back to the sender of the message and informs how well the message is getting
through.
6. Environment - the place, the feeling, the mood, the mindset and the condition of both
communicators, sender and receiver.
Noise -an interference that bars the message from being understood or interpreted.
1. External noise - comes from the physical environment
2. Internal noise - confined within the psychological and strategicalnature of individuals
thoughts and feelings are engrossed on something other than the communication skills.
7. Context - involves the expectations of the sender and the receiver and the common or
shared understanding through the environmental signals.
a. Physical context - the physical environment where the communication takes place.
b. Social context - refers to the relationship the participants hold for each other.
c. Psychological context - which has to do with the moods and emotions of the
communicators at the moment of communication.
8. Interference - the barrier or block that prevents effective communication to take place.
a. Psychological barriers - hampering thoughts
b. Physical barriers - stimulus like weather, climate health and ignorance
c. Linguistic barriers - different culture and language
d. Mechanical barriers - communication issues like connectivity and electric power outage.
Types of Communication
1. Intrapersonal communication - operates within the communicator himself.
Example -what to wear for the day, what activities to engage, reflecting different situations,
talking to oneself

Principles of Effective Communication
1. Courtesy - builds goodwill. It involves being polite in terms of approach and manner of
addressing an individual.
2. Clarity - makes speech understandable. Unclear language is absolutely forbidden. Jargons,
cliche, expressions ephemisms, and doublespeak languages must be avoided.
3. Conciseness - simplicity and directness help you to be concise. Avoid using lengthy
expressions and words that may confuse the recipient.
4. Completeness- each message must have a clear and logical conclusions
5. Correctness - glaring mistakes in grammar obscure the meaning of a sentence. Misuse of
language can damage your credibility.
6. Concreteness - reduces misunderstanding. It must be supported by facts such as research
data, statistics or figures. To achieve concreteness, abstract words must be avoided.
7. Creativity - means having the ability to craft interesting messages in terms of sentence
structure and word choice
8. Consideration - sender must consider the receiver's profession, level of education, race,
ethnicity, hobbies, interests, passion, advocacies and age when delivering or drafting a
message.
9. Cultural sensitivity- emphasis must be given to empower diverse cultures, lifestyles and
races as well as the pursuit for gender equality and cultural sensitivity
10. Captivating - sender must strive to make a message interesting to attract better responses
and attention from the receivers.
Ethical Standards Used in Communication
Ethics - or moral philosophy is a branch of philosophy that involves systematizing, defending and
recommending concepts of right and wrong behavior. It seeks to resolve questions of human
morality by defining concepts such as good and evil, right and wrong, virtue and vice, justice and
crime. (Source - https://en.m.wikipedia.org)

Lecture/Discussion:
Globalization – or globalization is the process of interaction and integration among people,
companies and governments worldwide. As a complex and multifaceted phenomenon, it is
primarily an economic process of interaction and integration that is associated with social and
cultural aspects. (Source - https://en.m.wikipedia.org)
Global culture is culture which transcends national borders and exists in many different
places around the world. All of these may influence people's way of thinking all around the world
and act as socialization agents, In doing so, they transfer values and beliefs from one culture to
the other.
Global community refers to the people or nations of the world, considered as being closely
connected by modern telecommunications and as being economically, socially, and politically
interdependent. Examples: Major offices and some homes linked with optical fiber system, .global
multimedia services and satellite transmissions. We can say now that we belong to local and
global community in multicultural settings made possible as a result of the advancements of
modern technology. (Source - www.quora.com)

How Communication Shapes Culture and Vice-versa
Communication is a cultural practice like any other, shaped to a large degree by personal
experience and tradition. Each culture often uses a particular language, though there is not a oneto-one correspondence, think of how many cultures have used a second language like English,
French or any language for communication.
When people from multiple backgrounds with different ways of communication, coexist
without really interacting deeply, that is multicultural communication situation.
Like multicultural communication, intercultural communication acknowledges the
coexistence of multiple cultures in a single space, be it physical or virtual. Training in language is
one integral part. By being aware as an active participant in multiple cultures, one can enrich his
own global perspective. Cross cultural communication on the other hand, is the comparison
between two or more cultures and most useful for workers who are planning to relocate abroad.

Motivation:
According to Mitchell Roshong, 2019, leaders need to adapt their communication styles
to be more dynamic in the digital age. The sharing of information, news or other reporting data is
now in real time and global. Social media platforms improve concise external communication by
following character limits that highlight key points with hashtags or key people with @ symbol.

Lecture/Discussion:
Intercultural communication refers to interaction with people from diverse cultures (Jandt, 1998)
Forms of intercultural communication
1. Interracial communication - communicating with people from different
races
2. International communication - communicating between representatives from different
nations
3. Intra-cultural communication - interacting with members of the same racial or ethnic group
or co-culture.
Issues on intercultural communication
Linguistic competence is an important part of intercultural communication. It requires
understanding and perception of different cultures. Effective intercultural communication is a vital
skill, along with the language knowledge, for the multinational countries, companies and people.
To avoid misunderstanding people need to to acquire language competence and practical skills,
to study the culture and traditions of the country where they plan to live or work.
(Source - https://www.researchgate.net)
Since each culture has its distinct aspects, intercultural communication can be the cause
of conflict and disorder.
Three main issues which are the root of the problem of intercultural miscommunication
1. Language barrier - a difficulty for people communicating because they speak a different
language.
2. Cultural diversity - a society made up of many different groups with different interests,
skills, talents and needs. It also means that some members can have differing religious
beliefs and sexual orientations.
3. Ethnocentrism - is the belief in the inherent superiority of one's own ethnic group or culture,
a tendency to view alien groups or cultures from the perspective of one's own.
Some of the most talked about issues include gender equality, political views, associated
with specific cultures, observance of religious holidays and ethnic stereotyping.

Cultural Diversity in the Workplace
Diversity benefits the workplace because people from various backgrounds have different
perspectives. Their contribution to the business allows the group to look at problems from all
different angles, the results are often innovative.
If employees and management do not encourage cultural diversity, teams will be weak.
When it works, diversity increases workplace productivity and profits. (Source https://www.thebalance.com)
How to Improve Intercultural Communication Competence
1. Recognize the validity and differences of communication styles among people

Impact of Fake news on Social Media
Fake news is quickly becoming an epidemic and has been playing a vital role in campaign,
politics, influencing votes and dominating the media to a greater extent in our daily lives. it has an
illusory effect ; the fact that if a lie is repeated enough times, you will begin to believe it is true. In
addition, the effect that fake news has on people's views of news media with so much false
information, consumers are skeptical and it erodes the trust they should have in the media.
How do we combat fake news?
1. Consider the journalist or media - unless it is from a credible news source, be
weary
that the information could be fake.
2. Research - check the citations and dates of research to ensure its from a reputable
source and not outdated. It could have been true at some point, but if it
is more than a
few years old, the information could no longer be fact.
3. Find the source – do not just Google it to see if the information is on other sites. Find sites
like Snopes which is excellent at setting the record straight.
Note: Be vigilant to put a stop to its recirculation. If you see a friend sharing inaccuracies-ask them
to remove their post. Add comments to articles stating the false claims, adding a link to the
accurate information. We cannot stop fake news, but we can at least do our part to keep it from
being reposted or repeated. (Source - https://www.wearefalls.com)

COMMUNICATION

Course Materials:
Two different modes of language
1. Spoken language (sometimes called oral language) is a language which is spoken by
people, used in conversations. It will have lots of phrases and incomplete sentences which
are "understood in context". Mostly questions, answers, and short sentences/phrases
which express an idea. It is produced by articulate sounds, as opposed to a written
language.
Others refer to sign language as also "spoken" especially in contrast to its written
transcriptions (in Braille). In spoken language, much of the meaning is determined by the
context. (Source - https://en.m.wikipedia.org)
2. Written language - is the written form of communication which includes both reading and
writing. It is the representation of a spoken or gestural language by means of a writing
system.
Written language is an invention in that it must be taught to children, who will pick up spoken
language or sign language by exposure even if they are not formally instructed.
(Source - https://www.link.springer.com)
Varieties of Spoken and Written Language
1. Varies when communicating with people within (local) and outside (global) our community.
2. Varies in speaking and writing
3. Varies in everyday and specialized discourses
Eight different domains in which language varies:
1. Local everyday written - this may include instances of local everyday written usage
found in the neighborhood posters. Example - a poster looking for transients/bed
spacers
2. Local everyday oral - this may occur in local communication among neighbors in
everyday, informal and local varieties of languages. Examples: Filipino dialects
3. Local specialized written - An example of local specialized written usage can be found
in the publications and web sites of local societies such as the Baguio Midland Courier.
4. Local specialized oral - involves specialized discourses. For example, in a computer
shop in the neighborhood, specialized local usage can be found. A specialized computer
game-related vocabulary is used.

5. Global everyday written - avoids local colloquialism to make the text accessible to
wider communities of readers. This can be found in international editions of newspapers
and magazines.
6. Global everyday oral - may occur in interactions between people coming from different
parts of the world when they talk about everyday casual topics.
7. Global specialized written - expands to as many readers internationally, hence the
non-usage of local colloquial expressions, one example is in international research
journal articles.
8. Global specialized oral - occurs when people from different parts of the world discuss
specialized topics in spoken form. Example is in paper presentation sessions in an
international academic conference.

Lesson 3 - Exploring Tools for Local and Global Communication
Unit 1 – Evaluating Texts That Use Words and Images
Overview:
The lesson focuses on the different contextual elements in different media using words and
images that is prevailing nowadays in our everyday communication.
Learning Objectives:
After successful completion of this lesson, you should be able to:
1. Define the term text in different contexts
2. Distinguish the difference of text using words from text using images
3. Value the importance of these texts, both in words and in images as well as their
meanings, especially in social media
Course Materials:
Motivation:
Global and local are understood basically as specific sizes and/or ranges. Essentially global
means big and local small. Globalizing the local and localizing the global are the twin forces
blurring traditional national boundaries. Global communication has created an immense business
empire for communication tools which directly is responsible for the changing paradigms and
policies of international relationships among nations of the world.
(Source - https://www.gmu.edu)
Lecture/Discussion:
The term text includes any form of written, spoken or media work conveying meaning to
an audience. Text may use words, graphics, sounds and images in presenting information. It
may also be in oral, print, visual or electronic forms.
Every piece of text carries a message, and every message carries a meaning that maybe
true or false. As a regular consumer of text and receiver of information, you need to be more
aware and critical about what you accept as a matter of truth or fact.
In evaluating "text" you need to consider the following:
1. Message
18

COMMUNICATION
COMPILED BY: REYNALDO C. CASTRO, LPT
2. Purpose of the message
3. How is the message conveyed
4. Target audience of the message
5. Effect of the message being conveyed
Media literacy Media literacy, put simply, is the ability to identify different types of media and the
messages they are sending. Therefore we, as the readers or viewers need to view the media
objectively, with the goal to find out or analyze what is being presented.
Source - https://www.ylai.state.gov
According to Wikipedia, media literacy encompasses the practices that allow people to
access critically evaluate, and create or manipulate media. The US-based National Association
for Media Literacy Education defines it as the ability to analyze, evaluate, create and act using all
forms of communication.
(Source - https://www.en.m.wikipedia.org)
Key Concepts of Media Literacy
1. All media messages are constructed. Media texts are built just as surely as buildings and
highways are built. The key behind this concept is figuring out who constructed the
message, out of what materials and as to what effect.
2. Media have embedded values and points of view. Because they are constructed, media
messages carry a subtext of who and what is important-at least to the person or people
creating the message. The choice of a character's age, gender or race, the selection of
a setting, and the actions within the plot are just some of the ways that values become
"embedded" in a television show, a movie or an advertisement.
3. Each person interprets messages differently. Different people experience the same
media message differently. Audiences play a role in interpreting media messages
because each audience member brings to the message a unique set of life experiences.
Differences in age, gender, education and cultural upbringing will generate unique
interpretations.
4. Media have commercial, ideological or political interests. Most media messages are
organized to gain profit and/or power. Much of the world's media were developed as
money-making enterprises. Newspapers and magazines lay out their pages with ads
first: the space remaining is devoted to new. Likewise, commercials are part and parcel
of most television watching now. The internet has become an international platform
through which groups or individuals can attempt to persuade.
5. Media messages are constructed using a creative language having its own rules. Each
form of communication has its own creative language scary music, heightens fear,
camera close-ups convey intimacy, big headlines signal significance. Understanding the

1. Define "texts"
2. Differentiate the text using words from text using images?
3. What is media literacy?
4. Enumerate the five key concepts of media literacy
Assignment:

Course Materials:
Motivation:
In the past, people used smoke signals as a form of communication, however, smoke
signals could only send a few simple messages. As the world changed and the population grow
people needed to send longer messages as well as well as sending them further in distance.
people replaced smoke signals for letter writing at least until the invention of the telegraph.
The telegraph system was a form of communication that transmitted electric signals over
wires from different locations to translate messages. it was invented by Samuel Morse hence the
popular Morse Code until Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone. After the telephone
came the fiber optics cable used to allow data to be processed faster to your home televisions
and computers.
Another major advancement in technology is the cellular phone that has brought a whole
new meaning to the term multi tasking. Cellphones today can do any and everything from sending
messages to emails, uploading video and picture and most importantly downloading applications
for everything.

LESSON 6 - Designing Tools for Academic Papers
In academic writing, the writer's aim is to persuade readers of an idea based on evidence.
The writer portrays to the readers what he thinks about a particular topic and based on research
and facts from academic reading. Academic papers are not written for readers, they are written
for reviewers

or a blog. Most classes require at least one written assignment, and teachers expect a high level
of writing skills. A good paper generally includes a thesis, paragraphs that support it and a strong
conclusion.

Academic Text Structure
The academic text structure. is an important feature of academic writing. A well-structured
text enables the reader to follow the argument and navigate the text. In academic writing, a clear
structure and a logical flow are imperative to a cohesive text. In many university assignments the
correct use of structure is part of the final assessment.
The structure of your writing depends on the type of assignment. Most academic texts
follow established structures. Some common structures in academic writing are: the three-part
essay structure and the IMRaD structure. Even shorter essays that are not divided into titled
sections follow such a structure. Longer texts may be further divided into subsections. Different
departments in the university may prefer that students use a certain structure.
The Academic Writing Process
Academic writing is a process that can be divide into three stages: Prewriting, drafting and
the final revising stage which includes editing and proofreading. In the first stage you research
your topic like collecting data and information, then make a preparatory work before you enter a
drafting stage.
After you have written your text, it is important that you take time to revise and correct it
before submitting the final result.

for relevant sources. You should give thought to the subject and purpose of your
assignment.
2. Drafting - once you have created an outline, it is now time to write. Remember that you do
not have to write your draft perfectly right. Instead focus on producing a flawless text, try
to concentrate on writing your main ideas. You do not need to edit or proofread it yet.
Instead try to let your thinking and writing flow as freely as possible.
3. Final revision - in this stage, editing and proofreading are included. Make sure now that
your writing is coherent and written accurately. Your final product should be a text that has
been thoroughly worked through and should meet the academic standards of writing. Allow
enough time to edit and proofread everything.
