How do you dance communication models?

Apparently it came so easy for my Intro to Comm Theories students. After showing them a sample communication model, I asked them to either draw or perform the communication process using the communication acts they observed.

Of course almost all of them chose to perform their "models" or "abstractions," trying to outdo each other in portraying the different elements in the communication transmission process.

While all used variations of Berlo's or Osgood and Schramm's communication models as they applied it to particular situations, they became creative in personifying the mechanical elements of Message, Channel, Noise, and Feedback.

I don't think next session's lecture will be boring at all.
