Communication is the process of sharing our
ideas, thoughts, and feelings with other people
and having those ideas, thoughts, and feelings
understood by the people we are talking to. When
we communicate we speak, listen, and observe.
13
The way we communicate is a learned style.
As children we learn from watching our parents
and other adults communicate. As an adult we
can learn to improve the way we communicate by
observing others who communicate effectively,
learning new skills, and practicing those skills

information, as by speech, signals, writing, or
behavior.
