In light of NCA’s summer event cancellations due to COVID-19, NCA has developed a special speaker series. This series is aimed at offering faculty and students the opportunity to learn about new directions in Communication research and teaching, and to spark ideas about their own research, teaching, and course/program offerings. The series began June 1, 2020 with speakers presenting a seminar each full week of June. Each seminar is comprised of five virtual seminars, hosted on the NCA website. Seminar leaders also provide readings to accompany each seminar.
Seminar leaders include Scott Myers (West Virginia University), Amy Clark (University of Virginia’s College at Wise), Richard Craig (George Mason University), and Jimmie Manning (University of Nevada, Reno). Seminar topics, descriptions, and dates are as follows:

Learning the Three C’s: Becoming a Competent Classroom Communicator
The purpose of this seminar is to reflect on, and develop further, our classroom teaching practices and behaviors, with a particular focus on improving the ways in which we communicate with our students and gaining a perspective on how students view us through our classroom communication. This seminar will cover five topics, which are developing a sense of teaching effectiveness, teaching from a student perspective, teaching from a rhetorical perspective, teaching from a relational perspective, and teaching from a presentational traits perspective.

The Rhetoric of Death in Central Appalachia from Mid-19th Century to Early 20th Century: A Case Study in Teaching and Researching Rhetorical History
The material culture of death, such as gravestones, records, and death photography, may be considered rhetorical memory spaces that were created with the expectation of visual interpretation, a way of interacting with the living. This seminar will explore a complex system of signs inherent in the 19th century gravestones of an enslaved community, as well as those in death photography, records, and other artifacts belonging to the White family who owned the property. The seminar will also include a tour of the site and artifacts used in this study, which offer a cultural understanding of a marginalized community whose histories may be revised by a close reading of symbols left behind.

"Is That How They See Me?”: Discussing Media Representations of Marginalized Groups
By telling stories to inform or entertain, media have the ability to present images of individuals and groups, as well as ideologies that influence audience understandings of others and self. This seminar will explore how the US media have historically framed marginalized US groups. This seminar will challenge our knowledge and thoughts about how media representations may shape a person's sense of value and belonging dependent upon the media content they regularly consume.

Extending and Expanding Notions of 'Family' in the Interpersonal and Family Communication Classroom
This seminar examines how families are defined and represented in interpersonal and family communication classrooms. Including a mix of classic and hot-off-the-press readings as well as classroom-tested teaching activities, this seminar will consider how they can help students to expand their understanding of what a family is and how communication plays a vital role in that understanding. Importantly, the seminar also focuses on diversity and inclusion in family communication studies, especially in the sense of who is and is not represented in family communication theory.
