Explain And Evaluate How You Use At Least Three Appropriate Communication Theories To Enhance Teaching And Learning
Explain and evaluate how you use at least three appropriate communication strategies/theories to enhance teaching/learning experiences in your own subject specialism area.
This assignment will discuss and evaluate how I communicate effectively with my learners to ensure their understanding. In particular I will focus on Shannon’s and Schramm model to illustrate how communication takes place and how the communication strategies I use within my own teaching, Q&A and body language, enhance learning.
Communication is the process by which a person sends a message which is received by another person with the intention of the message being understood. In teaching this is what happens between the teacher and the learners. Messages can be sent in a variety of ways: through speech, written format or body language.
One of the earliest models of communication theory was published by Shannon in 1948. The model shows how communication takes place, through the source, but also factors in how communication can go wrong (see appendix A).
Shannon’s model describes how a message begins with the ‘source’, in this case, the teacher. The message is then transmitted through different means, for example the phone, an email or direct speech. …show more content…
‘Body language helps you to get your message across, it lets students know that you want to create a supportive, productive learning environment’ (Ruland, date unknown). Lycon waxing involves sensitive content, it is therefore very important to build a rapport with my learners so they feel at ease with the course and effective communication and learning can take place. The strategies I adopt include standing up straight avoiding crossing of the arms, upbeat clear voice, being aware of my facial expressions, smiling, eye contact and allowing for wait time giving the learners to comprehend and respond to my communication. This provides a positive and confidence presence with my body
