Teaching Communicative Actions
Montgomery, Bette
Journal of Family and Consumer Sciences, v112 n1 p51-53 Mar 2020
Communication is the foundation of professional relationships and collaborative teams within family and consumer sciences (FCS) (Mitstifer, 2014). These relationships and collaborative work may be facilitated through communicative actions. Educational structure is needed to intentionally focus on communicative actions in undergraduate coursework. The purposes of this paper, therefore, are to briefly explain communicative actions, examine Kolb's model of experiential learning as a way to structure teaching and learning, and to share undergraduate student experiences in learning about communicative actions.
