Shannon and Weaver model

The Shannon and Weaver model describes how communication happens between a sender and a receiver. It involves five parts: the sender creates a message, which is encoded into signals sent through a channel (like speech or a phone line). During transmission, noise (interference) can distort the message. The receiver then decodes the signals back into a message. The model emphasizes the importance of clear signals and minimizing noise to ensure accurate communication. It’s a foundational way to understand how information is transferred and potential points where misunderstandings can occur.
