The Emancipatory Effect Of Integrating Communication Research Tenets On Discrete Curriculum Designs, Elizabeth Cheney Michel Jan 1992

The Emancipatory Effect Of Integrating Communication Research Tenets On Discrete Curriculum Designs, Elizabeth Cheney Michel

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Critical philosophers hold that the underlying cause of our current educational dilemma is a societal condition called modernity, the unique result of the technological orientation that has characterized society for the last two decades. Maintaining that individual human interests cannot be served by an instrumentally-oriented educational system, Habermas declares that the key to effecting change is dynamic, democratic communication in the classroom, oriented in the emancipatory interests of the unique individuals therein. The purpose of this study was to reveal an interdisciplinary link between the tenets of critical educational philosophy and communication theory, and, by implementing the dictates of extant …

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article establishes quantitative benchmarks for research productivity among active administrator scholars in speech communication, using bibliometric analysis of the Index to Journals in Communication Studies Through 1990. Citation counts from nineteen core journals spanning 1915 to 1990 are aggregated to calculate mean median and modal publication rates, identify distribution patterns, and rank the twenty five most prolific administrators. Findings show a discipline wide mean of two point four eight articles per author, a modal value of one, and concentrated output within a select cluster of doctoral granting departments. Profiles of top performers reveal sustained publication across regional journals and …


A Theory And Research Oriented Communication Major: Communication Studies, Mark V. Redmond, David W. Waggoner Jan 1992

A Theory And Research Oriented Communication Major: Communication Studies, Mark V. Redmond, David W. Waggoner

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article critiques the dominance of performance based courses within speech communication curricula and presents a model for a theory and research oriented undergraduate major in communication studies. Drawing on institutional experience at a land grant university, the authors identify structural and philosophical barriers that arise when departments prioritize public speaking service courses over scholarship and conceptual learning. Five guiding principles are proposed: redefining departmental identity beyond service roles, displacing public speaking as the defining gateway course, elevating theory and research above skill practice, aligning grading and rigor with disciplinary standards, and protecting faculty scholarship from teaching overloads. The resulting …

Liberality In The Arts: A Call For Academic Integrity In The Training Of Young Artists, Gerald Ratliff Jan 1992

Liberality In The Arts: A Call For Academic Integrity In The Training Of Young Artists, Gerald Ratliff

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article calls for a renewed commitment to liberal arts breadth in educating young artists. Arguing that studio centered traditions and artist to artist apprenticeship leave critical gaps, it advocates a classroom based model that integrates communication, humanities, languages, mathematics, social and natural sciences. Such breadth, it claims, sharpens critical insight, enriches individual perspectives, and expands artistic vision. The article outlines quality instruction that pairs practicing artists with academic scholars, leverages technology, and fosters analytical discourse. It proposes curricula that blend liberal studies with tutorials, artistic internships, and experiential learning in real world settings. Evaluation strategies should combine classroom performance, …


The Use And Abuse Of Power In The Academic Theatre, John C. Countryman Jan 1992

The Use And Abuse Of Power In The Academic Theatre, John C. Countryman

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Emphasis is placed on principle centered leadership that mobilizes group intelligence, encourages shared responsibility, and mitigates abuse while advancing artistic integrity. By linking theatre …

Mass Communication Education Belongs To The University, Jeffery Mccall Jan 1992

Mass Communication Education Belongs To The University, Jeffery Mccall

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This essay argues that mass communication programs must reclaim their place in the liberal arts rather than serving as vocational finishing schools for the media industry. Decades of deference, it contends, have let professionals dictate skills-heavy curricula, foster the belief that universities exist to supply entry-level labor, and equate education with training. To regain intellectual legitimacy—and political and financial standing on campus—the discipline should consolidate scattered sequences, emphasize theory, criticism, and media effects, and design courses usable by non-majors. Faculty hiring must meet the scholarly standards of other liberal arts departments, shifting evaluation from “war stories” to research and conceptual …
