How do you view the current state of the field? Our interest here is with the field of communication studies and
the state of study involving communication, not the act of communicating. For this assignment, each student
will prepare a five to seven page paper that explores the future direction(s) of the field. Specifically, the paper
should address how communication studies can be defined, key topics in the study of communication, and how
the field is likely to evolve in the future. I encourage you to begin this assignment by visiting the website of the
National Communication Association at https://www.natcom.org/. The format for the paper should follow APA
guidelines.
