Sender

The sender is the speaker. A sender
starts with an thought or idea he or
she wishes to express and then must
encode that idea into symbols (words)
and signs (facial expressions, tone of
voice, etc).
Receiver
The receiver is the listener. The
receiver must decode the symbols
and signs of the message sent
through the channel.
 The receiver tries to figure out what
the sender meant by what they said or
did

Message

The message is the symbols and
signs which are actually transmitted.
All messages are carried by a channel
(such as face-to-face, over the phone,
email, etc).
Feedback
Feedback is the signs the receiver
projects while the sender is sending a
message. Feedback allows the
sender to know how his or her
message is being received.
 Your physical reactions as you listen

Environment

Environment is the physical, social
and emotional context the
communication takes place in.
Environments can place expectation
and limitations on communication.
