Example:
            Suppose, a Science teacher is teaching the Importance of an Ecosystem. So, the teacher is the sender; the students
            in the class are the receivers; the lesson on the Importance of an Ecosystem is the message.
            The teacher  explaining the lesson  using text, diagrams, and symbols  are the encoding components of the
            communication process. The digital presentation using white board is the communication channel to deliver the
            message. Students decode the message in their own ways and this can be checked through feedback taken by the
            teacher in the form of a quick question and answer session before the class ends.


            1.4. DIFFERENT METHODS OF COMMUNICATION

            We are constantly using some or the other way of communication to deliver a message effectively. Choosing a right
            method will help us in building a strong-relationship with the people around us in our professional and personal
            lives. Some of the important methods of communication are verbal, non-verbal and visual communication. Let us
            learn about them in detail.

            1.4.1. Verbal Communication

            Verbal  communication is the  most popular  form of
            communication where  the  transmission of  messages  occurs
            with the usage of words that can be in oral spoken or written
            form. It includes sounds, words, and  speech. It is often used
            during  presentations,  video  or  tele conferences,  informal or
            formal telephone  calls, discussions, lectures, public  speaking,
            meetings, etc. Verbal Communication can be divided further as:

               • Oral or Spoken  Communication:  Communication  which
              involves speaking.  It  can  be  face-to-face  conversation  or
              talking on a phone.

               • Written Communication: Communication which  involves written or  typed  words. It can  be  writing  letters,
              notes, email, etc.
            Thus, language plays a very important role in this form of communication. Speaking with clarity, being short, simple
            and focussed are important tools that will help in the process of verbal communication.  Verbal communication
            can be further classified into: interpersonal communication, written communication, small group communication
            and public communication.

            Interpersonal Communication
            Interpersonal communication is a one-to-one formal or informal conversation between two individuals. There are
            less chances of misinterpretation of information in this type of communication. For example,
               • Conversation between teacher and parent during parent-teacher meeting.
               • A teacher clearing a doubt of a student on a specific topic during recess time.
               • Two friends working on a class project.

               • A telephonic conversation between two people.
            Written Communication

            In  this type  of  communication words are  written  in the  form
            of letters, circulars, reports, manuals, SMS, social media chats,
            school notes, projects etc. The vocabulary and grammar of any
            language used should be good for effective communication. It
            can be between two or more people.
