The Communication
CyclePARKLAND COLLEGE
EDU 103: TREVOR STEIDINGER
What is the Communication Cycle?
The Communication Cycle is the way a message is sent from one individual and received from another individual.
One must also remember the forms of communication. Ex. Face to face conversations, Text messages, e-mail, etc.
The Communication Cycle consists of all of the time spent from the sender to the receiver.
The Stages
Stage 1: Aim/Creation
This stage falls completely onto the sender of the message.
The sender of the message (in this case me) decides what is important for the receiver to hear (you).
Stage 2: Transmission
This stage again relies on the sender. In this stage the sender of the message says
whatever he or she needs to via one method of communication.
Woah, What just happened?
Feedback is when the message is altered in any way. Like the pictures of the Segways the message was altered from the path that the sender desired.
In every exchange in communication there is a external source that can disrupt the message the sender is attempting to transmit.
This happens even if we don’t realize it. For example, have you ever had class and another room leaves and is loud. That disruption of the teachers lesson is environmental feedback.
Feedback
Most Common Types of Feedback
NoiseAs motioned before noise probably the most noticed type of feedback.
MovementA movement disruption such as another student dropping a pen and moving closer to get it is a type of feedback.
InternalProbably the most unnoticed type of feedback. This is a distraction within the sender or receiver that causes large amounts of feedback.
Stage 3: Reception
This is the first stage where the receiver of the message can actually interact with the message.
This stage is what the receiver of the messages hears, reads, etc. Or what the receiver thinks that he or she heard due to feedback.
Stage 4: Decoding
In this stage the receiver of the message does all of the work trying to figure out what the message means.
The receiver converts what he received from the message into its own meaning. This might not correlate with what the sender’s aim was.
Stage 5: Response
The final stage of the communication cycle. In this stage the receiver of the message becomes
the new sender of the message and will go through the first 2 stages of the communication cycle again.
Conclusion
The Communication Cycle is used very frequently and inconsistent in speed. The cycle can hold a conversation lasting an hour with only one turn of the cycle or five minutes with many turns.
The Communication Cycle has 5 stages. In these stages we can find feedback interrupting the cycle all together.
