SHANNON – WEAVER’S MODEL / LINEAR MODEL

Originally developed by Shannon & Weaver in 1948, this model describes communication as a linear
process. This model describes how a sender, or speaker, transmits a message to a receiver, or listener. More
specifically, the sender is the source of the message. A message may consist of the sounds, words, or
behaviors in a communication interaction. The message itself is transmitted through a channel, the pathway or
route for communication, to a receiver, who is the target or recipient of the message. There may be obstacles
in the communication process, or noise. Noise refers to any interference in the channel or distortion of the
message. This is a fairly simple model in which a message is simply passed from sender to receiver.
