The communication process is initiated by a 1) SENDER_, who in response to a stimulus or

according to a need, purpose or desire, formulates a 2) THOUGHT or an idea from his/her vast
reservoir of accumulated information. This 3) MESSAGE which may be influenced
by his/her expectation or approximation of the 4) SENDER’S field of experience is
5) TRANSMITTED into a series of 6) COMMUNICATION_ that can be understood by the receiver.
The information is then 7) ENCODED_ through a chosen appropriate 8) _CHANNEL or medium
linking both participants. The 9) FEEDBACK may be formal or informal, verbal or non-verbal, or
mediated. The 10) RECEIVE for his part, also with his own field of experience as well as expectation
or approximation of the 11)_RECIEVER’S_ field of experience, has to be ready to receive a
message so that it can be converted into thought and interpreted. To facilitate 12) MODE,
he/she gives off a 13) SYMBOLS indicating his reaction to the message. The kind of 14) REACTION
generated depends on how the message is interpreted by the receiver. Completing the
communication process is the 15)_UNDERSTANDING that must be in mind of both the sender and
the receiver.

B. Read and analyze the paragraph below. Answer the questions below to be able to analyze the
elements of communication.
Jennifer loves Randy as a friend. She thinks of how to tell him using their native language. She tells
him, “Randy, mahal kita bilang kaibigan.” Rico hears what Jennifer says. He tries to analyze what
she means, and he is heartbroken. He frowns and does not say anything because he is in pain.

Who is the sender (source of the message)? Jennifer

_
What is the purpose of the sender? To confess what Jennifer really feels
towards Randy

_
What is the message? “Randy, mahal kita bilang kaibigan.”
 _
What is the channel/medium used to send the message? Verbal

_
Who is the receiver? Randy

_
What is the receiver’s feedback? None but he felt sad

_
Do the sender and receiver have a mutual No
understanding?
_
C. Create your own communication model to illustrate the variables/factors/elements that interplay in
digital/electronic communication. Your model should be a visual representation of the
communication process that takes place in the said type of communication.

MY OWN COMMUNICATION MODEL

for Digital/ Electronic Communication

Write a paragraph to explain your own communication model. Be able to discuss the communication
process you illustrated in the diagram. What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of
the type of communication (e.g. public communication or electronic communication) you have
chosen?
As you can see there’s a two persons talking the sender and the receiver of the message, on the
conversation decoding is very important because it means you understand each other you decode
his/her message and there’s noise that hinders in the conversation of the two. For me my model that I
draw is very easy to understand. _ _

F. You are in the era that communication has radically evolved from face-to-face interaction to a virtual
world. Try to classify yourself as a social media user.

THE ACTIVE LIKER THE TROLL THE MEMA USER

(constantly appreciates posts (one who sows discord by (short term for mema-post
and comments, is always provoking arguments and or mema-sabi lang, posting
updated) upsetting people through off- anything even meaningless
topic messages) just to gain attention)

THE ULTRA THE SEASONAL USER THE VIRTUAL CELEBRITY

(one who has all the social
media apps and latest news)
(one who uses social media at (draws attention and
a
certain period of time like comments, both positive and
when
Tiktok is viral, he/she will go negative all the time)
with the flow)

1) Who are you? Why?

I’m the mema, I like memes, and for me we shouldn’t take this social medias seriously because
sometime its cat fishing but we should take serious about new with credible evidences _ __

2) Identify social media apps that you use or install in your mobile phones. Why do you use them?

(1) Facebook, to see the latest post of my crush lol. (2) Messenger updating my friend’s what’s new,
and what the latest chikas (3) IG posting some pics (4) twitter to see some update to mu idols. _

3) Enumerate/Make your own principles of communication when using social networking sites like
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.

Using social media site we should sometimes lie on our info because they might use it to blackmail the
person and use it but in moderation, don’t use it to spread fake news, don’t use this to mocked
someone or to make fun with someone. _ _
