Abstract
The current emphasis on teaching specific terminal behaviors in communication education needs to be balanced by greater emphasis on cognitive goals. The most important cognitive goal in communication education is learning how to learn new communication behaviors. It is proposed that students acquire and develop new communication behaviors by completing a learning cycle of disengagement, reflection, and reconstruction. Methods for allowing students to complete this communication learning cycle are suggested.
