C. Lesson Proper

Our lesson for today is all about the types of

communicative strategies. At the end of the
lesson you are expected to: distinguish various
types of communicative strategies, engage in a
communicative situation, explain the effects of a
shift in communicative strategy, demonstrate
effective use of communicative strategy in a
variety of speech situations, and reflect on your
learning on the types of communicative strategy.

Is that clear class?

Yes Ma’am
Very good
Successful communication requires understanding
of the relationship between words and sentences
and the speech acts they are represent.

However, a conversation may be complex at

times; that is why some people get lost along the
way and misunderstand each other.

Do you agree class?

Yes Ma’am

Cohen (1990) states the strategies must be used

to start and maintain a conversation. Knowing and
applying grammar appropriately is one of the
most basic strategies to maintain a conversation.

The following are some strategies that people use

when communicating.

1. Nomination - A speaker carried out nomination to

collaboratively and productively establish a
Please read. topic. Basically, when you employ this strategy,
you try to open a topic with the people you are
talking to.

(Provide example)

2. Restriction - Restriction in communication refers to any

limitation you may have as a speaker.
Please read.

When communicating in the classroom, in a

meeting, or while hanging out with your friends,
you are typically given specific instructions that
you must follow. These instructions confine you as
a speaker and limit what you can say.

(Provide example)

3. Turn-taking - Turn-taking pertains to the process by which

Please read. people decide who takes the conversational
floor.
Sometimes people are given unequal
opportunities to talk because others take much
time during the conversation. But the primary
idea is to give all communicators a chance to
speak.

4. Topic Control
- Topic control covers how procedural formality
Please read or informality affects the development of topic
in conversations.

For example, in meetings, you may only have a

turn to speak after the chairperson directs you to
do so.

Remember that regardless of the formality of the

context, topic control is achieved cooperatively.
This only means that when a topic is initiated, it
should be collectively developed by avoiding
unnecessary interruptions and topic shifts.

5. Topic Shifting - Topic shifting, as the name suggests, involves

moving from one topic to another
Please read

In other words, it is where one part of a

conversation ends and where another begins.

Make sure that the previous topic was nurtured

enough to generate adequate views.

6. Repair - Repair refers to how speakers address the

problems in speaking, listening, and
Please read comprehending that they may encounter in a
conversation.
For example, if everybody in the conversation
seems to talk at the same time, give way and
appreciate other’s initiative to set the
conversation back to its topic.

7. Termination - Termination refers to the conversation

participants’ close-initiating expressions that
Please read end a topic in a conversation.
Most of the time, the topic initiator takes
responsibility to signal the end of the discussion
as well.
