The Clinical Supervision Of Teaching In The Small College Communication Department, Ellen Hay
The Clinical Supervision Of Teaching In The Small College Communication Department, Ellen Hay
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article examines the applicability of the clinical supervision model to the evaluation and improvement of teaching in small college communication departments. It argues that traditional supervisory practices often fail to support instructional development because they emphasize identifying incompetence rather than fostering growth among capable instructors. Clinical supervision is presented as a structured, five step process consisting of a pre observation conference, classroom observation with systematic data collection, analysis of observed behaviors, a post observation conference, and a concluding critique of the supervision cycle. The article details how this model encourages cooperative goal setting, focuses attention on specific teaching behaviors …
Interfacing Of English And Speech In A Basic Course, Marion Sitzmann
Interfacing Of English And Speech In A Basic Course, Marion Sitzmann
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article proposes a combined basic course in English composition and speech for small colleges and justifies the model through demographic, curricular, and historical considerations. The argument begins by noting that significant declines in the eighteen year old population will likely force reductions in faculty and require the consolidation of foundational courses. The combined course is presented as a pragmatic response that can preserve curricular flexibility while allowing students additional space for electives or internships. The article then establishes a philosophical rationale by tracing the shared origins of writing and speaking in classical rhetoric, emphasizing the relevance of invention, arrangement, …
Conducting A Departmental Review, Joseph W. Macdoniels
Conducting A Departmental Review, Joseph W. Macdoniels
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article describes and evaluates the departmental review model developed at Hope College as an institutional mechanism for continuous program assessment suited to the small college context. It begins by identifying structural barriers that make conventional external evaluation impractical for small institutions, including limited financial resources, unique institutional missions, and disciplinary breadth within small departments. The model presented replaces costly outside evaluation with a recurring internal review cycle in which departmental self studies and structured presentations form the basis for institutional dialogue. The article outlines the objectives of the review process, emphasizing the promotion of systematic departmental planning, the cultivation …
A Special Tool For Offering Criticism: The Post-Speech Transcript, Gary B. Lafleur
A Special Tool For Offering Criticism: The Post-Speech Transcript, Gary B. Lafleur
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article analyzes the limitations of traditional immediate post speech criticism in basic public speaking courses and presents a four step evaluation system designed to produce more deliberate and comprehensive feedback. It argues that conventional critique sheets and spontaneous peer comments often result in superficial observations shaped by the immediacy of performance, emotional distortion, and the restricted scope of one page forms. To address these problems, the article outlines a sequenced process that begins with a post speech conference held the day after the presentation, allowing for a more reflective review of critique sheet comments and targeted discussion of areas …

Promoting Vitality After Tenure, John Lee Jellicorse, James G. Tilley
Promoting Vitality After Tenure, John Lee Jellicorse, James G. Tilley
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article analyzes the causes of declining productivity among tenured faculty and outlines strategies for sustaining long term professional vitality. The authors identify a critical period following the award of tenure during which faculty may experience diminished motivation due to unclear goals, institutional incentives focused narrowly on pre tenure performance, and inconsistent evaluation of teaching, research, and service. Structural problems such as outdated workload models, poorly defined faculty development policies, and reliance on differentiated staffing intensify the risk of stagnation. Drawing on motivational theory, life span development research, and ERG theory, the authors argue that faculty growth depends on satisfying …
Liberal Arts Education And The Communication Arts And Sciences Discipline, Philip Emmert
Liberal Arts Education And The Communication Arts And Sciences Discipline, Philip Emmert
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay examines the relationship between the communication arts and sciences and the goals of liberal arts education, arguing that the discipline’s distinct contribution lies in its focus on the spoken word and the cognitive and behavioral changes that accompany its study. The author reviews the historical roots of American liberal arts education and notes its longstanding orientation toward preparing students to function effectively within their environments. He contends that contemporary discussions often overlook this practical heritage. Responding to earlier essays in the collection, the author argues that while theatre, mass communication, communication disorders, and speech communication each offer persuasive …
Evaluating The Teaching Component Of The College Or University Director's Work, Bob Yowell
Evaluating The Teaching Component Of The College Or University Director's Work, Bob Yowell
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay argues that directing in academic theatre constitutes a significant form of teaching and should be evaluated as such. Drawing on progressive educational philosophy, the author emphasizes that directing aligns with long standing principles of learning by doing, problem centered inquiry, collaboration, and democratic engagement. The essay parallels William Heard Kilpatrick’s characteristics of good teaching with the iterative processes of theatrical production, demonstrating that directors initiate activities, plan and execute creative work, guide problem solving, facilitate critique, and help students reflect on their learning. The discussion proposes criteria for evaluating teaching in directing, including preparation, motivation, clarity of task …

The Student Perspective On Evaluating Teaching Effectiveness, Donald H. Wulff, Ann Q. Staton-Spicer, Carla W. Hess, Jody D. Nyquist
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article examines student perceptions of teaching evaluation methods by comparing end of course student ratings with the Small Group Instructional Diagnosis procedure. Using data from 140 undergraduates in communication courses, the study analyzes Likert scale responses and open ended comments to assess the perceived importance, uses, and preferred formats of evaluation. Factor analysis indicates that students view teaching evaluation as important but express uncertainty about how results are used and whether instructors act on feedback. Students favored methods that allow written comments, provide opportunities to offer constructive suggestions, and ensure anonymity. They identified weaknesses in end of course ratings, …
Under And Over The Hill, Peter Garvie
Under And Over The Hill, Peter Garvie
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay reflects on the problem of faculty who have become unproductive, disengaged, or resistant to change and considers how academic communities perceive and respond to such colleagues. Through an extended narrative and metaphorical analysis, the author distinguishes between those who have not yet reached professional maturity, those who have declined after earlier achievement, and those whose self perception is disconnected from their actual performance. The essay examines institutional tendencies to tolerate or obscure persistent non productivity, often due to bureaucratic structures that make intervention difficult. Drawing on metaphors of light, shadow, perception, and psychological projection, the author explores how …
