Document Summary
In interaction with both other individuals and with computers. All the way to establishing linguistic conventions. Perception believes that ears, what we hear, lead into the head, and the brain is the decoder, which decodes what the ears say into a word (eg. , bear) Production is the idea that after the encoder decodes the sound, linking it to a word, (once again, eg. , bear), then leads to the person saying the message, aka the word. Sender doesn"t stop being a receiver while sending; hearer doesn"t stop being sender while hearing. Sender shapes message for hearer, based on what he knows about being a hearer also. Hearer actively constructs message, based on what she knows about being a sender also. Example: the prof, teaching the lesson, is also receiving msgs from us. Like, whether we know what she"s saying, or what she means .
