Communication
The word communication comes from
the Latin word communis, which means
"common." To be common means to come
together or to share something in common
together. Communication helps people to
adapt to or survive in the place they live in.
Communication
Verbal communication, also called
spoken communication, is the process or
act of conveying one's thoughts or ideas
using speech. Sounds and language are
used for relaying the message that one
needs others to know.
Verbal
Communication
Explanation:
Telephone conversations and
job interviews entail verbal
communication, as the participants
would have to speak to each other in
order to get their message across.
Examples:
telephone
conversations
job interviews
Nonverbal communication refers to
the use of wordless cues in order to
convey a message. These cues include
facial expressions, hand gestures, body
language, and the tone, pitch, and volume
of voice. Even when one is using words,
there is also nonverbal communication
involved.
Nonverbal
Communication
Explanation:
Shaking your head gives someone
the impression that you disagree with
something, while smiling conveys that
you are pleased, happy, or amused
about something.
Examples:
shaking your head
smiling
Activity 1
Write on the board the different
mediums of communication.
Activity 2
Define communication in your
own idea orally.
Evaluation:
Define communication.
Assignment:
Create a script for receiving
telephone calls.
Tips:
Know what your purpose is so that
you can effectively send your
message verbally, through gestures,
or using a mix of both.
Be a good listener because
communication is not one-way. In
order for you to respond properly to
the person you are communicating
with, you should first be able to
listen to and understand the
person's message.
