This volume establishes critical interpersonal and family communication pedagogy (CIFCP) as a distinct academic area of inquiry, highlighting the intersections of identity, power, culture, pedagogy, and interpersonal and family communication concepts, theories, and methods.
This practical, theoretical, and aspirational collection by interpersonal and family communication (IPFC) scholars and teachers shines a spotlight on, through a diversity of methods, some of the ways that power both emanates within the classroom and informs intellectual instruction. Providing examples that connect critical theories and concepts with topics common in IPFC classrooms, such as conflict, relational tension, disclosure, listening, and family dynamics, the book illustrates how critical concepts can be uniquely addressed and unpacked in IPFC classrooms through a variety of assignments, teaching activities, and discussion prompts, and promotes and normalizes the ongoing reflexive practices of IPFC instructors.
This book will interest academics and upper-level students working in the areas of Critical Methodology, Interpersonal Communication, Family Communication, and Relationship Science.
