Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following is an example of one-way communication?

The instructor says, "Good morning everyone! Welcome to HIIT! I hope you're all ready for some serious hard work!"

One-way communication occurs when information flows in one direction—from the sender to the receiver—without the receiver providing feedback or response. In the given example where the instructor greets the class and expresses expectations for the HIIT session, the instructor conveys a message but does not anticipate or invite any feedback or interaction from the students. This demonstrates that the communication is unilateral, focusing solely on the instructor’s message without any engagement or reply from the participants.

In contrast, the other examples involve interactions where students are expected to share their thoughts or feedback, indicating a two-way communication process. These interactions would require both parties to be involved in the exchange of information, highlighting the difference between one-way and two-way communication.
