| my teachers ask me to define something (that can be fully explained in one sentence) in 2 paragraphs. i don't know how to do this without going off-track to pointless and irrelevant topics. |

this is why this generation in education is suffering what they're trying to make you do is apply the answer to more than just what you learned in class. attach it to an experience. compare and contrast it to something else. demonstrate that you know more than words on a page. |

@keel:
they're asking me to define the source of comunication in 1 or 2 paragraphs
when the only definition i was given is that it's the source of information
i can't derail it with the whole process of communication because i'd have to do it in each one, which is redundant and unnecesary |

"when the only definition i was given is that it's the source of information"
"i am such a blockhead that i can only utilize what i was given" maybe i am giving counterproductive advice because teachers these days are really this direct about what needs to be understood but how do you not have the intelligence to at least make an extended explanation slightly relevant? |

@keel:
because the concept is so basic I cannot fathom a way to explain it in less than a mere paragraph without talking nonesense, I could talk about who the source is in the story, but that needs 2 paragraphs of explanation aswell. |

two paragraphs isn't a lot you could have a paragraph simply relating whatever you're defining to the world around you, or whatever you're learning in that class

A source or sender is one of the basic concepts of communication and information processing. Sources are objects which encode message data and transmit the information, via a channel, to one or more observers (or receivers).
In the strictest sense of the word, particularly in information theory, a source is a process that generates message data that one would like to communicate, or reproduce as exactly as possible somewhere else in space or time. A source may be modelled as memoryless, ergodic, stationary, or stochastic, in order of increasing generality.
