WHAT IS COMMUNICATION? - Charvi Mehta

The following article is written by Charvi Mehta, a student of F.Y. Electronics & Communication at CITC.

WHAT IS COMMUNICATION?

The word 'COMMUNICATION' refers to


- exchange
or flow of information or ideas from one person to another.


- sharing
of views, ideas, opinions, problems.


- imparting
our knowledge to the listener.

We might say communication consists of transmitting information from one person to another.The working definition of communication hovers around the LASSWELL'S maxim :

"who says what to whom in what channel with what effect".

A simple communication model with a sender tranmitting info. to the receiver.
WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNICATION IN MY LIFE ?

Acc. to one saying, "Nothing is so simple that it cannot be misunderstood".
Words mean different things to different people. Every day those differences in communication cost your business, organization or association a lot of time, energy and money. Effective communication occurs only if the receiver understands the exact information or idea that the sender intended to transmit.


For me COMMUNICATION is the essence of my life. Myself being a big 'chatter-box' can't even think of life without comm.. It plays a vital role in my all-round development. Communication facilitates me with an easy way to express myself. It helps me to talk, fight, negotiate, coach, guide, learn, discuss, insult, prevent from being bored and prove myself.

So one may say in brief that 'COMMUNICATION' is the centre of the universe'.
