Understanding Oral Communication Concept Maps
An oral communication concept map shows how spoken exchange works between people. Oral communication is the process of sending and receiving messages through speech and listening. Its main parts are the sender, the message, the channel, the receiver and feedback. A good map links these elements, then adds forms such as interpersonal, group and public speaking.
- Elements: sender, message, channel, receiver and feedback
- Forms: interpersonal, small group and public speaking
- Verbal cues: word choice, tone, pitch and pace
- Nonverbal cues: eye contact, gestures, posture and facial expression
- Barriers: noise, unclear language, bias and poor listening
Use the map to review before a test, plan a presentation, or check your understanding of each element. To build a personalized oral communication map from your own notes, try CogniGuide.
