Audio-visual Communication - Organization Behavior

This type of communication combines the auditory and the visual, that is, while people are observing something on the television or cinema screen, they are also hearing narrative or descriptive remarks so that what they see is adequately supplemented and there is a more abiding impression on their mind.

I.            The government uses it to keep the people well informed of its programmers and policies.

II.            It has been found especially useful for the propagation of the family welfare programmed.

How to make audio-visual communication effective
