CHAPTER 1. UNDERSTANDING 21ST CENTURY COMMUNICATION

Lesson 1: Communication Processes, Principles and Ethics

Language is method of human communication, either spoken or written, consisting of the use of words in a
structured and conventional way

Views of language:

1. Language is a system of systems.

This means the “sounds of language are arranged in a fixed, and systematic order to form meaningful
units or words”.

2. Language is arbitrary. There is no inherent relationship between the word and its meaning.

3. Language is primarily vocal. This means “Language is primarily made up of vocal sounds.

Language Acquisition
- the process whereby children learn their native language subconsciously

Language Learning
- Learning a new language involves listening, speaking, reading, writing, sometimes even a new alphabet
and writing format

Language Contact
- occurs when speakers of two or more languages or varieties interact and influence each other

Grammar
Phonology

Vocabulary

STRATEGIES FOR UNLCOKING VOCABULARY:

1. Do the structural analysis.
2. Find clue that makes the vocabulary word positive or negative. Then, rule out all the positive or negative
choices.
3. Find clues in the sentence that can be associated with the vocabulary word. Then, rule out all the unrelated
choices.
4. Rule out the answer choices that do NOT have the word classification or category of the given vocabulary
word.
5. Rule out the answer choices that are unfamiliar. Pick the answer from any of those unfamiliar words once
nothing
from the remaining familiar answer choices will be synonymous to the given vocabulary word.
6. Test your definition in place of the unfamiliar word (substitution).

Communication
- comes from the Latin word “communicare” “to share” or “to make common”
- the process of understanding and sharing meaning
- relational process of creating and interpreting messages that elicit a response

Communication is the exchange of information, ideas, thoughts, and feelings by one individual to another

Nature of Communication
- It is much more than words.
- It is a process.
- It is between two or more people.

Models of Communication

1. Linear Model – one way process with no external feedback

 A. Aristotle’s Model (300 B.C.) – It is a communication model which can be used to develop
public speaking skills or to create propaganda.
B. Lasswell’s Model (1948) – It is the “In which channel” as It describes an act of communication
by defining who said it, what was said, in what in what channel it was said, to whom, it was
said, and with what effect it was said.
C. Shannon and Weaver’s Model (1949) – It is also known as the “Mathematical Theory of
Communication” that argues that human communication can be broken down into 6 key
concepts.
D. Berlo’s SMCR Model (1960) – It represents the process of communication according to
Sender, Message, Channel, and Receiver.

2. Interactional Model – two-way process but more mechanical and has more delayed feedback. It also
deals with exchange of ideas and messages taking place both ways from sender to receiver and vice
versa.
A. Schramm’s Model (1949) – It views communication as a process wherein the message is
transmitted using a medium by a sender to a receiver. He added the notion of field of
experience in his theory. Field of experience assimilates a mutual understanding of both the
parties.
B. Osgood-Schramm’s Model (1954) – It is known as a circular model because it indicates that
messages can go in two directions. Also, the two parties decodes, interprets, and encodes the
message of each other.

3. Transactional Model – two-way process and more simultaneous as it has direct and immediate
feedback

A. White’s Model (1960) - There are eight stages of the oral communication process: thinking,
symbolizing, expressing, transmitting, receiving, decoding, feedbacking, also monitoring. So,
communication is a sequential interaction process
B. Dance’s Helical Model (1967) – It disagrees with the concept of linearity and circularity
individually, and introduces the concept of time and continuous communication process.
C. Barnlund’s Transactional Model (1970) – It emphasizes a multi-layered feedback system for
all parties involved and recognizes that anyone can be a sender and receiver anytime. Shared
field of experience is also its strength.

Types of Contexts
1. Physical context
The physical context is the environment where the communication takes place.

2. Psychological context
Psychological context includes the mental and emotional factors in a communication encounter.
Stress, anxiety, and emotions are just some examples of psychological influences that can affect
communication.

3. Relational context
 The relational context is the relationship between the communicators that influences the other
aspects of communication. While not all communication may seem to have a relational component
involved, even a lack of relationship is part of the relational context and impacts the way we will
communicate.

4. Situational context
The situational context implies that a speaker and a listener share physically some common
knowledge in their present communication.

5. Cultural context
Cultural context is related to the society where individuals are raised in and at how the culture
affects behavior. It incorporates values that are learned and attitudes that are shared among groups of
people. It includes beliefs, meanings, customs, ideas, language, norms.

6. Social context
Social context is the the sociocultural forces that shape people's day-to-day experiences and that
directly and indirectly affect health and behavior (Pasick & Burke, 2008).

Components of the Communication Process

Technically, communication happens in a systematic process to achieve its success. Communication
process is important particularly among professionals because of the following notable reasons according to
Bhasin (2021):

Lesson 2: Communication for

Journalists: Writing a Lead

Writing opening paragraph of a News Article or Lead

The Five W’s and H: News writing strives to answer “The Five W’s and H:” that is, Who, What, When,
Where, Why and How. Good leads answer as many of these questions as possible in a single sentence. When
writing a lead, it helps to think about which of these facts is the most vital for readers to know.

Keep It Short: A good lead provides all the information the reader requires in just a few words. Ideally, a lead
should be between 25 and 40 words.

Keep It Simple: Don’t clutter up the lead with unnecessary adjectives or adverbs. Also make sure that your lead
only discusses one idea to avoid confusion.

Write in Active Voice: Avoid all forms of the verb “to be.” Common exceptions including writing about fatalities
(“two people were killed Thursday”) and when discussing police activity (“two people were arrested”). Passive
voice is often the result of incomplete reporting.

Structure Your Lead Properly: Put your most crucial information at the very beginning of the sentence.
Important secondary information can go in subsequent sentences. Not following this practice is called “burying the
lead.” If you need attribution in your lead, make sure it goes toward the end of the sentence because it is less
important than the information itself.

Understand the Context: Keep in mind what your readers may already know about your story based on previous
media coverage. Write in a way that speaks to these realities and adds relevant, useful information.

Be Honest: Never mislead the reader. If you promise a certain type of information with your lead, you should be
ready to deliver.

Types of Lead

Summary Lead or Straight Lead - brief summary, containing most of the Five W’s and H in one sentence.
Question Lead - ask a question. Although they are effective in sparking interest, use them sparingly because
they
generally do not provide the main points of a story as concisely.
Quotation Lead - use direct quotation used in first paragraph
Funny Lead - lead written in a funny way
Anecdotal Lead - quick, relevant story to draw in the reader. The anecdote must help enhance the article’s
broader point, and you must explain the connection to that point in the first few sentences following the
lead.
Descriptive Lead - describe how an event happened rather than simply telling what the event is about

c. Semi-Block Style
It is much like the modified block style except that each paragraph is indented instead of left
justified. It is the most balanced of all formats of business letters.

Resume - where you can display your top skills and qualities it consists of one to two pages. it is the most
required tool to every company when looking for a job because it will be a way to help you get your interview and
it will be easy for the employer in hiring decisions.

Lesson 8: Communication for Employment: The Application Letter

The application letter is a clear link between the position the applicant is searching for and the
qualifications mentioned in the resume. To put it another way, the letter fits those credentials with the
specifications of the position, illustrating how correct an applicant is for that role. It addresses details in the
resume selectively, as needed.

Lesson 9: Communication within a Company: The Memorandum

A Memorandum, or commonly known as a memo, is a short concise message or record that is used for
internal communication in a business, administration, or an institution. A
- a note, document or a form of communication intended to issue a directive, execute a policy, present an
information report, provide convey information, rebuke errors, give warnings, solve problems or make
requests. This communication can be between or among administrators, and subordinates or may suffice
subordinates coordinating with co-employees to carry out a task or activity. This communication is an
interoffice tool.

Basic Principles and Characteristics of Memorandum according to Sharma, 2014:

Necessary and Sufficient Information
Do not Assume that Everyone knows Everything related to the issue discussed in the Memo
Be Clear, Concrete and Specific
Easy-to-Understand
Explain with Ease and Co-operation
NO Emotional Appeal

The following are the uses of Memorandum according to Sharma, 2014:

To Provide Information
To Issue Instruction
To Convey Policy Decision
To Offer/Invite Suggestion
To Record/Report an Agreement
To Establish Accountability
Helps you to avoid meeting personally, when necessary

These are the guidelines in making Memorandums:

Short as possible and concise.
Use simple English.
Avoid using jargons.
Use a captivating Heading by bolding or using different colors for the heading.
Be aware of the important information that needs to be included in the memorandum.
Be aware of the grammars and spelling.
Anticipate any questions your readers might have.

Lesson 10: Writing Minutes of Meeting

Meetings are set and conducted in different ways by different companies and organizations to discuss
different agendas and matters that affect the surrounding area and the people involved. Being in a meeting, one
must keep record of the meeting’s agendas, suggestions, and actions requested by the group; a list of what
happened during the meeting, the Minutes of the Meeting.
Before the meeting:
Choose your recording tool. One may choose to use it in recording the meeting, from a pen and paper to a
laptop or a recorder. Always check your tools as one will need it for future references. Reading the meeting’s
agenda may also help your outlining of the meeting where one can easily pinpoint what are the important points
within the meeting.

During the meeting:

Passing the attendance is a sign that the meeting is starting, know who is involved within the meeting to
know who they are and what their main point is. One may not include all comments instead the important notes
are enough. Write all motion and who made them, and its results. Always remember to keep your own biases.

After the meeting:

Encode the notes you have taken during the meeting. Include the participants and the different key points
they added. Add to your final record the organization, the title of the committee, the type of meeting, and the
purpose of it. Always proofread your record and avoid lapses of important discussion within the meeting, if
needed second opinion do not hesitate to ask to fully verify your work. Submit it to the person who ran the
meeting unless instructed to do another way or otherwise.

CHAPTER 5 COMMUNICATION FOR ACADEMIC PURPOSES

Lesson 1: Avoiding Plagiarism

Topics:
- Quoting
- Plagiarism
- Paraphrasing
- Summarizing

Lesson 2: Writing a Research Proposal: The Topic Proposal

Research

Research involves a scientific method which uses logical and systematic procedure for the acquisition of
new knowledge or for the verification or confirmation of previews and existing knowledge to answer problems and
to apply in practical life.

Types of Research

Pure Research
● The researcher tries to find the truth
● The research meant to seek knowledge simply for knowledge’s sake
● Also termed as library or desk research

Applied Research
● Practical application of knowledge to everyday situations.
● Also termed as action research

Quantitative Research
● Associated with positivist tradition (there is reality out there that can be studied and known)
● Gathers numerical values as its data
● Investigates concepts, constructs, variables
● Use deductive reasoning
● Use control (imposing condition so that biases are minimized and validity and precision are maximized)
● Gather empirical evidence (from objective reality collected through senses)

Qualitative Research
● Associated with Naturalistic inquiry (reality is not a fixed entity but rather a construction of individual
participating in research.)
● Gathers narrative description as its data
● Investigates phenomena, and concepts
● Use inductive process
● Use subjectivity that enriches the analytical insights
● Gather information, insights that lead to search for further evidence (subjective) takes place in the field
Lesson 3: Writing a Research Proposal: The Method

The Questionnaire
● Is a form prepared and distributed to secure responses to questions that are intended to obtain
information about conditions or practices on which the respondent is presumed to have knowledge
● Questionnaire can be provided as paper-and-pencil device, a telephone survey, or a structured
document uploaded onto the internet

● The questionnaire format could be:

o Dichotomous (yes/no)
o Multiple choice
o Cafeteria
o Rank order
o Forced choice ratings
o Checklists
o Calendar
o Visual analogue

● Two Types of Questionnaire Items

1. The free response questions or “open-ended” or unstructured Questionnaire
● The questions frequently asked are why, what and how
2. The “close-ended” or structured form of Questionnaire
● Has the response already prepared, the respondents merely checks, underlines or
ranks the responses as directed

The Interview
● Is the second most common method for data collection
● It is a purposeful face to face relationship between two persons, one of whom called the interviewer who asks
questions to gather information and the other called interviewee or respondent who supplies the information
asked for

Purposes and Uses of Interview

1. The researcher may interview knowledgeable people to enable to gain insight into his problem
2. The researcher may interview knowledgeable people about the proper construction and validation of
questionnaire
3. In case when the subject has some signs of abnormality, the interviewer may wish to gain physical and
emotional reactions of the subjects
4. Interview can be used as a principal tool in gathering data or just to supplement data collected by other
techniques

What to Avoid in Interviews

1. Avoid exerting undue pressure upon a respondent to make him participate in an interview
2. Avoid disagreeing or arguing with or contradicting the respondent
3. Avoid unduly pressing the respondent to make a reply
4. Avoid using a language well over and above the ability of the respondent to understand
5. Avoid talking about irrelevant matters
6. Avoid placing the interviewee in embarrassing situations
7. Avoid appearing too high above the respondent in education, knowledge and social status
8. Avoid interviewing the respondent in an unholy hour

Observation
● Is the most direct means of studying the subjects when the researcher is interested in their
behavior
● Perceiving the data through the senses

Recording the Results of Observation

● Checklist
● Is a device which contains the items to be observed and a space for number or checkmarks or short verbal
entries
● Rating scale
● Is a checklist with an evaluation standard
● Anecdotal forms
● Is a checklist that provides for less breakdown of dimensions or factors hence, much space is provided for
writing
● Mechanical Recording
● Stenographic Recording

Records
● Provide a readily available and valuable source of data
● Three major criteria necessary to establish authenticity and accuracy of records:
◦ Authorship- the identity of the person who conceived the material
◦ Body- the outward form of the material
◦ Function- purpose for which it was complied

Lesson 5: Writing Literary Analysis

The review of related literature is a written summary of the existing knowledge base on a research
problem obtained from an in-depth search on non-research references and research
references. The review includes a statement indicating what the present study will add to what is already known.
It is a written, analytic summary of research findings on a topic of interest It is a comprehensive compilation of
what is known about the phenomenon. It provides the background and the context on which the research is
conducted

1. Conceptual Literature/Related Literature

● It is composed of discussions of facts and principles to which the present study is related
● These materials are usually printed and found in books, encyclopedias, professional journals, magazines,
newspapers, and other publications
● Also referred to as non-empirical references
● Are classified as local and foreign

2. Research Literature/Related Studies

● These are studies, inquiries, or investigations already conducted to which present proposed study is related or
has some bearing or similarity
● These are usually unpublished materials such as manuscripts, theses, and dissertations
● Also referred to as empirical references
● Are classified as local and foreign

Sources of Literature
Empirical References may be of primary and secondary sources:
1. Primary Source
● Description of studies written by the researchers who conducted them
● It is ideal to rely heavily on primary sources of data
● The researcher’s oral discussion of his study in research forums, seminars, conferences, and even
competitions, may also be considered primary sources
2. Secondary Source
● Descriptions of studies prepared by someone other than the original researcher
● Secondary source documents are a good way to start a literature review with because they provide a
quick summary and a good bibliography

Lesson 6: Writing Political Analysis Paper

LITERATURE refers to written works, especially those considered of superior or lasting artistic merit.
PLOT is the series of events that take place. It's the action of the story that drives the narrative forward.

PINT OF VIEW is the writer's way of deciding who is telling the story to whom. Establishing a clear point of view is
important because it dictates how your reader interprets characters, events, and other important details.

LITERARY CRITICISM (or literary studies) is the study, evaluation, and interpretation of literature.
LITERARY THEORY is the body of ideas and methods we use in the practical reading of literature.
Lesson 7: Academic Presentation
