 SHORT ANSWER:              Sender / Receiver / Message / Feedback / Context / Channel /  “Noise”(Interference) I expect that you recognize this list as the primary elements present in every communication situation (I call them the Big 7).  As you know, communication competence in these elements is difficult, and when the communication is intercultural, there are  additional considerations and challenges. Give two(2) illustrations of how Intercultural dynamics can have an added influence on these elements. Discuss “Context” & any other one(1) element from the list.  Your illustrations should be concrete examples of special considerations for handling that element effectively when in an intercultural encounter. Approach your answer as if you are adding a segment to Edward T. Hall’s insights in Beyond Culture to continue showing how Communication-is-Culture.  “Concrete example” means you should cite something specific you have read about, observed, or experienced regarding how that communication element is additionally impacted when it is in an Intercultural situation.
