Communication
Communication is the activity of conveying information through thoughts, exchanged, messages, signs, and so forth. Communication requires a sender and a receiver. The sender originates the communication messages, while the receiver is the destination. However, although it seems pretty easy, it quite isn’t. There are several different types of communication. One particular type of communication that is very important is Demonstrative Communication. In this paper I will discuss the meaning of Demonstrative Communication and how it can be effective and ineffective, as well as signs of positive demonstrative communication as opposed to negative demonstrative communication between the sender and receiver.

Demonstrative communication includes non-verbal and un-written facial expressions, body language and things of that nature, as stated. Demonstrative communication is moreover a tool to increase verbal communication but when used alone will also dispatch a message. The most common forms of nonverbal communication are the use of facial expressions and hand gestures. Hand gestures help one to keep the concentration of an audience, however; if used excessively can become a distraction and have a negative effect, resulting in the audience not receiving the full message as intended. Non-verbal communication speaks louder. Body movement while talking can have the same positive and negative effects on an audience. Excessive movement back and forth, swaying from one side to another can distract and cause a loss of focus on the topic of discussion are most common examples of communication in a sense of demonstration but if movement is kept at an pertinent level, it can keep the interest and attention of the receiver.
