Code - a system suitable for creating/carrying messages through a specific medium
encode (put into code) and
decode (take out of code)
Channels (verbal, nonverbal, etc.) - the specific mechanism (―pipeline‖) used to transmit
the message
Medium (face-to-face, television, web, phone, etc.) - form or technology of transmission —
determines kind of code used.
Noise - interference with message — external (physical), internal (mental) or semantic
(misunderstanding/reaction
Environment (part of context) - that which surrounds and provides a basis for the
meaning of a message:
Physical (surroundings)
Temporal (point in time)
Relational (the existing relationship between communicators - friends, strangers,
etc.)
Cultural (language and behavior community the communicator(s) come from)
