The Shannon-Weaver Model of Communication

Recently, we’ve talked a lot about communication on Soft Skills English. Today, we’re going to take a look at one of the most fundamental communication models of all: the Shannon-Weaver model, named after its inventors Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver. In the video, we will have a look at what the Shannon-Weaver model is all about and why it still plays an important role in communication psychology today.
