Interactive model is two linear models stacked on top of each other. The sender channels a message to the receiver and the receiver then becomes the sender and channels a message to the original sender. Draw-backs: there is feedback but it is not simultaneous. The linear model is a one-way model to communicate with others. It consists of the sender encoding a message and channeling it to the receiver in the presence of noise. Draw-backs: the linear model assumes that there is a clear cut beginning and end to communication. It also displays no feedback from the receiver. Examples: a letter, email, text message, lectures: rhetorical analysis http://writingcenter. tamu. edu/2010/types-communication/academic-writing/rhetorical-analysis/
