Term
Action Communication Model
Definition
Communication is a one-way process. The action model starts with a SOURCE (the originator of a thought or idea) who comes up with a thought or an idea you wish to communicate. Then, you must ENCODE (to put an idea into language or gestures) the idea into something that someone else can understand. Through this process you create a MESSAGE (Verbal and non verbal elements of communication to which people give meaning). You send the message through a CHANNEL, the person who gets your message is a RECEIVER, and NOISE interferes with the communication process.
Ex. Leaving a voice mail.
