Linear communication model

The linear communication model describes communication as a one-way process where a sender transmits a message through a medium to a receiver. It involves straightforward steps: the sender creates and sends the message, which passes through a channel, and the receiver then interprets it. The model emphasizes clear, direct transmission without considering feedback or interactions. It's useful for simple communication scenarios like broadcasting, but doesn't account for ongoing exchanges or misunderstandings that happen in more complex conversations.
