BY Dr. Mohammad Azam Assistant Professor Department of Surgery Faculty of Unani Medicine Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh

2 Quotes Developing excellent communication skills is absolutely essential to effective leadership. The leader must be able to share knowledge and ideas to transmit a sense of urgency and enthusiasm to others. If a leader can't get a message across clearly and motivate others to act on it, then having a message doesn't even matter ---Gilbert Amelio If you improve a teacher's self-esteem, confidence, communication skills or stress levels, you improve that teacher's overall effectiveness across the curriculum----Elaine MacDonald

3 CONTEXT What is Communication What is Effective Communication Communication Process Types of Communications Barriers to Effective Classroom Communication Conclusions

4 What is Communication? Communication is a process of interaction of ideas between the communicator and the receiver to arrive at a common understanding for mutual benefit (Berlo, 1960), A process of transmitting information and common understanding from one person to another (Keyton, 2011). It is a process of generating meaning by sending and receiving verbal and non-verbal symbols and signs.

5 What is Effective Communication?
Effective communication is not only simple exchange of information. It is more about considering the emotions and intents of that information. Effective communication includes transforming the boring into the interesting and having good presentation skills. Effective communication works both ways, you just don’t have a good speaker but a good listener Listening and understanding are important pillars of effective communication.

6 Communication Process
Sender (source): Communicator Receiver: (audience): Single person or group of people.(Homogenous audience is better) Message (content): Meaningful, based on felt needs, clear and understandable, specific and adequate, interesting, culturally and socially appropriate. Channels(medium): o Interpersonal communication o Mass Media o Traditional or folk media 5. Feedback (effect): Reaction of the audience to the message

7 Communication Process
Sender Message Channel Receiver Feedback

8 Types of Communication
One-way communication (Didactic Method) The flow of communication is "one-way" from the communicator to the audience. The familiar example is the lecture method in class rooms. Drawbacks- knowledge is imposed learning is authoritative little audience participation no feedback does not influence human behavior

9 CONTINUE….. Two way communication (Socratic Method)
In which both the communicator and the audience take part. Opinions, Views and Ideas are ventilated. Verbal communication: Direct verbal communication by word of mouth. It may loaded with hidden meanings. Non-verbal communication: Communication can occur even without words. Body movements, facial expressions, gestures, symbolic representation and silence

10 CONTINUE….. Formal and Informal Communication: Visual communication:
Formal follows lines of authority and Informal is like grape vine. Informal includes Gossips, chatting. Informal communication is more active and is present in every institute. Visual communication: Charts and graphs, pictograms, tables, maps, patterns. Telecommunication and Internet: Radio, TV and Internet etc. are mass communication media while Telephone, telegraph are point to point telecommunication system. Point to point communication is much closer to interpersonal communication.

11 Barriers to Effective Classroom Communication
Lack of effective listening is one of the most important barriers. Perception which refers different people receiving and hearing the same message but interpreting it differently. Language can also be a barrier if the teacher and the students don't speak the same language. Anxiety because if a student is anxious and unsure, he/she is less likely to speak up in class. Poor channels can also be a barrier to communication.

12 CONTINUE….. Medical/Physiological issues and disorders like stuttering, or more advanced medical disorder as cerebral palsy can also be a barrier to communication. Jumbled messages (contradictory messages or mixing an intended message with unnecessary issues) can also be a barrier to communication. Emotional states (depression, mood swings, anxiety, low self-esteem, effects of a traumatic event) can also be a barrier to communication. Lack of credibility can also be a barrier to communication.

13 Conclusion The importance of communication skills cannot be underestimated. Good communication skills are necessary in all walks of life. The lack of effective communication skills has a negative impact on the personal as well as professional life of a person. Good communication skills are a prerequisite for professionals, in all walks of life.  A teacher, who is able to communicate well with students, can inspire them to learn and participate in class.
