TY - JOUR PY - 1976// TI - Communication and teaching effectiveness in industrial education JO - American educational research journal A1 - Roberts, Churchill L. A1 - Becker, Samuel L. SP - 181 EP - 197 VL - 13 IS - 3 N2 - The purpose of this study was to gain a better understanding of how communication relates to teaching effectiveness in an Industrial Education setting. Teaching effectiveness was defined in terms of two criteria: supervisor evaluations of teachers and student evaluations of teachers. Results from the study underscored the importance of communication skills in the teaching/learning process. The most important measures were: teacher dynamism, teacher delivery, time spent with the students, positive reinforcement of the students, and positive attitude toward the students. These measures differentiated "good" from "poor" teaching.
