Abstract
The communication studies discipline is at its best when scholarship balances attention to quality, student-centered instruction, and ethical, future-oriented research. Though there are many avenues for research that can better inform educational communication by homing in on logistical approaches such as classroom management or curriculum design, research that explores the more abstract connections between communication and learning can o ff er important philosophical insights that impact the logistical ones. One approach to research that can bolster our understanding of the relationship between learning and communication is to revisit assessment and the methods used to gauge learning outcomes.
