PREFACE
Teaching and learning have gone so far by this time in the 21 st century allowing both educators
and learners to engage in many different modes and platforms in acquiring knowledge and skills, and
this is also caused by the existence of various technological advancements widely used by the current
generation all over the world. But there is a great challenge that we are facing right now --- the COVID
19 pandemic, that disallows the normal movements of all social endeavors including the education area.
How should educators address this situation without losing the value of education and maintaining the
academic standards in every discipline? That is what Ave Maria College has to address in all subjects
and courses offered by designing and engaging in a new modality of learning.
This course packet aims to align the teaching of Speech and Theater Artsin the new teacher
education curriculum that is anchored on the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers. This course
packet is designed to adapt to the new modality of teaching that Ave Maria College is using – the
flexible learning. This means that the school and home activities are deeply considered when the
facilitator of this course designed it in relation to the schedule of classes given by the school
administrators and as approved by CHED. In addition, this flexible learning used in this course includes
the use of online and offline resources, soft and hard materials in order for the students to experience a
balanced learning despite of the situation we are facing. The given topics and the equivalent class and
home activities can easily be obtained and done by the students through the use of hyperlinking method
in which the required and suggested materials are already attached and hyperlinked to the offline
software given to the students. Furthermore, having these changes that both teachers and learners are
going to embrace, the objectives of this course are still intact and achievable as evidently mentioned and
equalled with different tasks in the next following pages under the course outline specifically.

LESSON 1
I. COMMUNICATION PROCESS
The Communication is a two-way process wherein the message in the form of ideas,
thoughts, feelings, opinions is transmitted between two or more persons with the intent of
creating a shared understanding.
Simply, an act of conveying intended information and understanding from one person to
another is called as communication. The term communication is derived from the Latin word
Speech and Theater Arts 2
“Communis” which means to share. Effective communication is when the message conveyed by
the sender is understood by the receiver in exactly the same way as it was intended.
The communication is a dynamic process that begins with the conceptualizing of ideas by
the sender who then transmits the message through a channel to the receiver, who in turn gives
the feedback in the form of some message or signal within the given time frame. Thus, there are
seven major elements of communication process:
Sender: The sender or the communicator is the person who initiates the conversation and has
conceptualized the idea that he intends to convey it to others.
Encoding: The sender begins with the encoding process wherein he uses certain words or non-
verbal methods such as symbols, signs, body gestures, etc. to translate the information into a
message. The sender’s knowledge, skills, perception, background, competencies, etc. has a great
impact on the success of the message.
Message: Once the encoding is finished, the sender gets the message that he intends to convey.
The message can be written, oral, symbolic or non-verbal such as body gestures, silence, sigh,
sounds, etc. or any other signal that triggers the response of a receiver.
Communication Channel: The Sender chooses the medium through which he wants to convey
his message to the recipient. It must be selected carefully in order to make the message effective
and correctly interpreted by the recipient. The choice of medium depends on the interpersonal
relationships between the sender and the receiver and also on the urgency of the message being
sent. Oral, virtual, written, sound, gesture, etc. are some of the commonly used communication
mediums.
Receiver: The receiver is the person for whom the message is intended or targeted. He tries to
comprehend it in the best possible manner such that the communication objective is attained. The
degree to which the receiver decodes the message depends on his knowledge of the subject
matter, experience, trust and relationship with the sender.
A. Functions of Communication
Basically, there are five functions of communication. These are control, social interaction,
motivation, emotional expression, and information dissemination.
1. Control – Communication functions to control behavior.
2. Social Interaction – Communication allows individuals to interact with others.
3. Motivation – Communication motivates or encourages people to live better.
4. Emotional expression – Communication facilitates people’s expression of their feelings and
emotions.
5. Information dissemination – Communication functions to convey information.
B. Features of an Effective Communication
In their pioneer book Effective Public Relations, Professors Broom, Cutlip, and Center
(2012) list the 7 Cs of Effective Communication. This list is widely used today, especially in
public relations and advertising.
1. Completeness – Complete communication is essential to the quality of the communication
process in general. Hence, communication should include everything that the receiver needs
to hear for him/ her to respond, react, or evaluate properly.
2. Conciseness – Concisenessdoes not mean keeping the message short, but making it direct or
straight to the point. Insignificant or redundant information should be eliminated from the
communication that will be sent to the recipient
3. Consideration – To be effective, the speaker should always consider relevant information
about his/her receiver such as mood, background, race, preference, education, status, and
needs, among others. By doing so, he/she can easily build rapport with the audience.
4. Concreteness – Effectivecommunication happens when the message is concrete and
supported by facts, figures, and real-life examples and situations. In this case, the receiver is
more connected to the message conveyed.
5. Courtesy - The speakershows courtesy in communication by respecting the culture, values,
and beliefs of his/her receivers. Being courteous at all times creates a positive impact on the
audience.
6. Clearness – Clearnessin communication implies the use of simple and specific words to
express ideas. It is also achieved when the speaker focuses only on a single objective in
his/her speech so as not to confuse the audience.
7. Correctness – Correctness in grammar eliminates negative impact on the audience and
increases the credibility and effectiveness of the message.
C. Barriers to Communication
There are instances when miscommunication and misunderstanding occur because of
certain barriers. The table below presents some barriers to effective communication with
corresponding solutions.
1. Appropriateness –The language that you use should be appropriate to the environment or
occasion (i.e., whether formal or informal).
2. Brevity – Speakers who often use simple yet precise and powerful words are found to be
more credible. Try to achieve brevity by being more direct with your words. Avoid fillers
KEEP IN MIND:

thoughts, feelings, opinions is transmitted between two or more persons with the intent
of creating a shared understanding.
There are seven major elements of communication process:
Sender

II. DISCUSSION
Instruction: Differentiate the two concepts using t-chart.
INSTRUCTION: Write an essay that talks about the importance of communication in your daily life.
Make sure to follow the basic format of an essay and the penmanship is legible.
Communication refers to the act of sending information from one place, person, or organization to
another. A sender, a message, and a receiver are all part of every communication. This may appear to be
a simple concept, yet communication is actually a very complicated topic. A wide range of factors can
influence the message's passage from sender to destination. These factors include our emotions, cultural
context, communication medium, and even geographic location. The difficulty is why employers all
over the world prize good communication skills: accurate, effective, and unambiguous communication is
incredibly difficult. Communication is more than just the transmission of information, as this definition
demonstrates. The term implies that a message must be successfully transmitted or imparted, whether it
is information, ideas, or emotions. The sender, the message, and the recipient are the three components
of a communication. The message is 'encoded' by the sender, who uses a combination of words and
nonverbal cues to do so. It is sent in some form (such as voice or writing), and the recipient 'decodes' it.
Basically speaking, we humans considered communication as one of the most important skills that
we utilized and possessed. Perhaps the most crucial life skill is the ability to communicate effectively
and this is considered as factual to us humans. It is what allows us to communicate with others and
comprehend what is said to us by the other people that we talked to. To appreciate how fundamental the
desire to communicate is, just try to observe how a baby listening carefully to its mother and trying to
imitate the sounds she makes. Because of communication we change the world that is full of
misunderstanding and war. Communication made all the people in every country become united,
wherein the people in every country are helping each other to create traditions, cultures, and beliefs.
These are some of the proofs that will made us humans believe that people in our society in the present
are embracing harmonious society because of the language that we have. We’re going to use as an
example the situation of a baby in which its difficult for them to express what they feel because they are
still have no capabilities to talk. When they feel something they only cry so hard because that’s their
way of expressing their emotions and feelings. Sometimes they cried because of many reasons, wherein
maybe the baby is hungry, sick, bitten by an insect or irritated and it’s difficult for a mother to
experience this kind juncture. While in other field is that communication is can help us to boosts
knowledge sharing and innovation, wherein knowledge tends to lose its value if it is kept to your own
and never tend shared with the rest of the world. Only by sharing ideas, information, and knowledge can
they be expanded and improved, as well as how they might be applied in everyday living.
Communication across departments, as well as between management and staff, is critical for sharing and
increasing knowledge, as well as applying that knowledge to generate innovative ideas. Another thing is
that communication is important because it promotes team building. Building a team is an important part
of every company or organization. And communication is at the main basis of this procedure. Members
All the concepts and ideas that I stated serves as the proof that communication is very essential for
our daily living because it will help us in molding the physical, mental, and emotional aspect of our life.
The reason why sometimes we abruptly get new opportunities in our life because we possessed good
communication to others. Communication is the reason why the world experienced a harmonious society
and created various cultures, traditions and beliefs. Lastly, communication is also the reason of societal
evolution which help humans to embrace high technologies.
