Teaching Communication across Disciplines for Professional Development, Civic Engagement, and Beyond [EPUB ebook] 

In Teaching Communication Across Disciplines for Professional Development, Civic Engagement, and Beyond, contributors discuss topics inherent in merging communication across disciplines, including challenges and opportunities, teaching and research, communication and student identity, future directions, and the transformative possibilities of teaching communication across disciplines. A cross-disciplinary approach provides an avenue for the integration of a broad education that prepares students for global citizenship and civic engagement. Ultimately, this book argues that positioning communication as a theoretically rich process of social interaction and meaning with attention to rhetorical sensitivity can expand the vision of communication across the disciplines. The increased demand for communication expertise opens opportunities for exploration, growth, community development, and cross-disciplinary alliances. Scholars of communication, English, and education will find this book of particular interest.
