what comes into my mind when i people say communication?
to me, it requires one or more person to talk with no matter what or which or how we communicate.
it could be via sms, email, phone, face to face or chat line



according to the notes and text book,
communication refers to the process of human beings responding to the symbolic behaviour of other persons.
it is a continous and ongoing process.

to my discovery in our second lecture, there are 5 types of communication

intrapersonal communication.
-one communicate internally by listening to one's voice that lives in one's head.
the comic below can be an example of intrapersonal comm.
101 things might be going through his head.
eg: am i going to die?
is this a prank?
what do they want from me?


followed by,
dyadic communication a.k.a. as interpersonal comm.
it requires two person to communicate.
it could either be verbal or non verbal comm.



small group communication,
requires 3-5 people talking. sometimes more and can reach up to 1 class of human comm.
conflicts are more likely to happen which is a good thing.



public communication
- 1 person shares knowledge to many.
it could be a conference, lecture class, school, etc etc,


lastly,
mass communication
- it sends messages to large audience
- it could be through tv, print ads
this is a one way activity(linear model)
