Abstract
The method used to communicate the “content” of a course in communication skills has little effect upon the acquirement of skills or on the knowledge which the student gains of the principles of speaking, writing, reading, and listening. Hearing the regular classroom instructor in the face‐to‐face situation, viewing television recordings made by “experts” in each subject area, and reading comparable material in textbooks and journals seem to be equally effective as methods for handling this aspect of the course. Instructor differences are, in general, independent of the teaching methods compared.Keywords
