Communication Education published in January, April, July and October, serves the needs of communication educators. Its pages include reports of research, articles on teaching, and reviews of both print and non­print learning resources.

Materials published in the journal are not restricted to any particular methodology, approach, or setting. 

Articles in CE focus primarily on the role of communication in the instructional process and teaching communication in traditional academic environments. However, manuscripts related to teaching communication or the role of communication in the instructional process in non-traditional settings (e.g. training in business, health, and legal settings) are strongly encouraged. 

Manuscripts providing practical suggestions for classroom teachers of communication, previously published in the Instructional Practices section of CE, should be submitted to our sister publication, Communication Teacher. However, manuscripts reporting formal tests of such methods should be submitted to CE.
