Below are some illustrations of the theories we talked about in class. The first image is the most basic form of the sender/receiver model. We also call it the sender/receiver model, the transmission model or the linear model of communication. The sender/receiver model provides with a basic way to understand and explain what communication and is and what is not. The second image illustrates a slightly more complex understanding of communication, including the concepts of encoding and decoding messages as fundamental elements of the process of communication. One important point to take away from the progress of the sender/receiver model is that communication is dynamic process.

The third image below is the onion model of organizational culture and it allows us to understand what culture is and helps us to begin to understand the large number of factors that help account for differences and similarities of cultures. We discussed the onion model when we engaged in the "Island thought experiment" and discussed how different cultures might progress given different environments and demographics.

Hello Dr. white and students ..
My name is Alak Alkailani. I'm 22 years old. I came recently to the U.S so I'm here for one year ago. I'm from Iraq, but because of the war I moved to Jordan and I studied civil engineering in there. I was one of the best five students in my university in that major, but when I came here I face many problems because of my languages so I'm trying to do my best for getting As in my classes. My major is Graphic Design. I'm SUPER excited to work as a group with you guys and our perfect Dr :)

Hello everybody my name is Jeniva Gasaway and I am 18 years old (I'll be 19 in December #SagitariuslikeJesus lol) This is my second year (5th semester) at Cosumnes River College. My major is sociolology and as soon as I graduate from CRC I will be transfering to Sacramento State University. I hope to one day have my own nonprofit which is dedicated to helping at risk teenage youth.

I also hope to own my own beauty parlor one day. So far this is my favorite class out of the four classes I have this semster, and I look forward to any information that can increase my intelligence and help me look at life on a broader scale.
