In a classroom presentation, a student gave good information but kept speaking without observing the audience response. What is the most serious weakness in the communication process?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Lack of feedback
The student has a message and a medium—the presentation—but does not check how the audience is receiving it. Feedback through questions, facial expressions, or responses helps the speaker identify confusion and adjust delivery. Therefore, the main weakness is lack of feedback, not lack of message, medium, or language.
