Abby: julia and james are struggling with a math problem.
Mark and nicole notice them and offer to help.
Julia: "It's so hard to solve this question!"
James: "Yeah, you're right; it's so hard!"
Mark: "Hi James and julia, do we have a problem here?"
James: "We're trying to solve this equation for our math quiz tomorrow, but it is so hard to figure out."
Nicole: "So, some of you are having trouble understanding the
equation, right?"
Julia: "Yes, exactly! We've tried different methods, but we still
can't solve it."
Mark: "Let's see if we can figure it out together. Did you try to
use the formula we learned in class?"
James: "We did! But it didn't work; we still haven't figured out
how to solve it."
Nicole: "Hmm... Ok, we will help you two to solve that problem."
Abby: The noise in the background is making it hard to focus. (Dito, mag-ingay, mag-daldalan, ganon, tawanan.)
Julia: "Hayst! Let's move to a quiet place so we can concentrate better."
Abby: After they move to a quiet spot, Ms. May notices them.
May: "What's going on here, students?"
(Everyone: "Good morning, ma'am May.")
(Tapos, sabay-sabay na kayong magtatanungan dito. Tapos, si May parang pipikit na, stress na
naririndi, tas yung kamay niya is naka-sign ng stop, ganon, tapos tatahimik na kayo.)
(Tapos, ituturo niya si Mark. Pagka-turo, mag-sasalita ka na, Mark.)
Mark: "Ma'am, julia and james are having some trouble with this equation. We're trying to figure it out."
Abby: Ms. May decoding the message.
May: "I see. Julia, can you show me what you've done so far?"
Julia: "We followed all the steps we learned, but the answer doesn't seem right."
May:"Let's go through the problem together and see
where the issue might be."
Abby: They all work together to solve the problem, demonstrating effective communication despite the initial barrier.
The elements of communication involved are the,
Sender (julia, james, mark, nicole),
Encoding (expressing their struggle),
Message (difficulty with a math problem and the offer of help), Channel (initially verbal in a noisy environment, then moved to a quieter spot),
Receiver (the teacher),
Decoding (teacher understanding the situation),
Feedback (teacher offer to help),
and Barrier (initial noise and teacher confusion).
