LISTENER/RECEIVER

The person receiving the message, making sense of

it, or understanding and translating it into meaning.
If there is no listener or the listener is not paying
attention, the communication fails.
It is the listener who makes sense of what is
delivered and reacts to it—by clapping, nodding
the head, replying, asking a return question,
following the speaker, falling asleep, or walking out.

CHANNEL

A system of communication—the means by which

information (the message) is transmitted between a
speaker and listener.
The five senses: ears, eyes, mouth, skin, & nose, are
the main channels in communication.
Other channels are telephone, letter, e-mail,
television, etc.

FEEDBACK

It is the reaction to the message; can

be verbal or nonverbal response.
It tells the source how the receiver has
interpreted each message.
It can be positive or negative.

NOISE

The interference that keeps a message from

being understood or accurately interpreted (can
be physical or physiological).
Physical noise – loud music or engine of a
motorcycle
Physiological noise – headache, toothache,
hunger

Communicative Situation It is the setting of Where and When the

communication occurs.
