Abstract

This study reports the results of a survey of oral communication instruction in the State of Illinois in order to update the understanding of the status of communication education in elementary and secondary public schools. Based on the analysis of the quantitative and qualitative data collected, the authors offer seven major recommendations for oral communication courses and programs in Illinois K-12 schools. It is the authors' belief that these recommendations can be adopted and adapted by other states as well.
