70. Read the passage below and answer
the questions that follow based on your understanding of the passage.
Communication is the key stone of education. It is the process of exchange. It
is derives from a Greek word “Communis” which means “to
make common”. The early meaning of
communication is derived from Latin word
“Communicare”. Communicare also means
“to make common”. Thus ‘com’ means having a
common experience with other people. Communication is a process of give
and take of ideas which blend into a mutual understanding of a theory,
principle or fact. Communication is a process of transmissionof information
from the sender to the receiver and vice-versa. It means getting across ideas
and information to another person. According to John Dewey “Communication is a
process of sharing experience till it becomes a common possession”. Effective
Communication is a two
way process including feedback and
interaction. Communication involves
interaction which involves give and
take. Communication is chief means of teaching
learning process. Communication
process involves three things, sender, receiver and content. Aristotle said
that Communication is a means of presentation to influence the other, so that the desired effect is achieved. The
dictionary meaning of “Intra” is within and “Inter” is between or among. Inter
personal Communication means the Communication that takes place between two or
more person, here the sender and receiver is two people. There are two basic
approaches that define
interpersonal Communication. One
approach includes all the ways in which people influence each other. The other
approach believes that Communication should be limited only to the intentional
interaction that takes place with the help of symbols. On the other hand, inter
Communication means the Communication
that takes place within the
individual, here the sender and the receiver is the same person. When a person
faces a problem, he wants to solve the problem. In that way, some interaction
takes place within him.
