Why do this?
Why Communicate? To meet your needs.
Communication, roughly is a dynamic process though which we create shared understanding. It is the way we make group action possible.
We as animals have needs.... physical, relational, identity, and spiritual needs as well as instrumental needs that must be met every day. You should be able to define these from your >>text.
Humans communicate in a variety of ways. Your text describes three of them as Action, Interaction, and Transaction. They work as follows:
Action is a one way model
Sender (encodes) @ (message) ------------------ (channel)-------> Receiver (decodes)
remember the Cavemen we talked about in class
Transaction is two way communication... the second Caveman talks back
@ --------------------------->
<------------------------------@
Interaction is where both parties are communicating simultaneously. This is used most frequently in Interpersonal Communication
Sender/Receiver <------------------------@---------------------------> Receiver/Sender
both encode and decode a variety of messages over many channels at once.
PLEASE REFER TO OUR CLASS MODEL OF IPC THAT HAS BEEN DRAWN AND DISCUSSED IN CLASS.
Six Myths of Communication
# 1 Myth: Everyone is an adept communicator
#2 Myth: Communication can solve any problem
#3 Myth: There is only one type of communication
#4 Myth: Any communication is good communication
#5 Myth: More communication will ultimately make people agree with you.
COMPETENT COMMUNICATORS ARE:
Self Aware, Responsive and Adaptable, use Person-Centered Messages, exercise Cognitive Complexity, and are Ethical and Civil.
Facts about Communication...
Communication relies on many channels... some contexts are channel-rich, others are lean.
Communication passes through perceptual filters... filters are pre-existing conditions that might change what a new message means to you
People give meaning to Communication... symbols change in meaning based on the audience
Communication has both literal and relational implications... content has meaning(s) but may also signal changes in the understanding of your relationship with another
(Metacommunication)
Communication sends a message, whether intentional of unintentional... you try to stay awake in class, even though you eyes might give your tiredness away.
Communication is governed by rules... explicit or tacit they still count and you kind of have to go along.
Interpersonal Communication has even MORE qualities!
It occurs between at least two people.
Those people have some relationship with one another
Communication evolves as the relationship evolves. Often it is a catalyst for the evolution.
Communication defines and negotiates the status of the relationship itself. (kind of important, no?)

Welcome!
Here you will find lecture notes, pictures, links, and any other "stuff" your instructor feels will help you gain a fuller understanding of Interpersonal Communication.
You may use this resource to help you prepare for exams, but it should not be viewed as a substitute for reading your text, paying attention in class, and working together with your peers.
