WITH FEWER LAPSES IN ATTENTION.
AUDIENCE
AN AUDIENCE IS A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO COME TOGETHER TO LISTEN TO
THE SPEAKER. THE AUDIENCE MAY BE FACE TO FACE WITH THE SPEAKER OR
THEY MAY BE CONNECTED BY COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY SUCH AS
COMPUTERS OR OTHER MEDIA
WHEN YOU ARE SPEAKING YOU WANT THE LISTENERS TO UNDERSTAND AND
RESPOND FAVOURABLY TO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING
SINCE THERE IS USUALLY LIMITED COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE
SPEAKER AND THE AUDIENCE, THERE IS LIMITED OPPORTUNITY TO GO BACK
TO EXPLAIN YOUR MEANING.
YOU WANT TO PREPARE YOUR SPEECH WITH A FOCUS ON THE AUDIENCE,
NOT JUST YOU, THE SPEAKER, OR YOUR MESSAGE
AS A SPEAKER YOU SHOULD ANALYZE YOUR LISTENERS AND THEN DECIDE HOW TO
PRESENT YOUR IDEAS
FEEDBACK
COMMUNICATION
IS
THE
EXCHANGE
AND
FLOW
OF
INFORMATIONAND IDEAS
FROM ONE PERSON TO ANOTHER. IT
INVOLVES A SENDER TRANSMITTING AN IDEA, INFORMATION, OR
FEELING TO A RECEIVER.
EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION OCCURS ONLY IF THE RECEIVER
UNDERSTANDS THE EXACT INFORMATION OR IDEA THAT THE
SENDER INTENDED TO TRANSMIT.
THE COMMUNICATION HAS VICIOUS CYCLE WHICH CONTINUES EVEN
AFTER SENDING MESSAGE TO THE AUDIENCE. THE AUDIENCE MAY
OR GET THE SAME INTENDED MESSAGE AS THE SPEAKER INTENDED
TO SEND.
THIS
CYCLE
ENDS
ONLY WHEN
THEY SHARE
THEIR
UNDERSTANDINGS AND COMMENTS TO THE SPEAKER ABOUT WHAT
THEY HAVE UNDERSTOOD. THIS IS CALLED FEEDBACK.
IMPORTANCE OF FEEDBACK
FEEDBACK MAKES COMMUNICATION MEANINGFUL.
IT SUSTAIN THE COMMUNICATION PROCESS.
IT TELLS WEATHER THE COMMUNICATION IS MAKING SENSE OR NOT.
IT HELPS TO PLAN WHAT NEXT TO BE ONE OR SAY.
IT COMPLETE THE WHOLE PROCESS OF COMMUNICATION AND MAKE IT
CONTINUOUS.
COMMUNICATION WILL BE USELESS WITHOUT FEEDBACK.
IT IS BASIS FOR MEASURING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF COMMUNICATION.
