Description

Although Communication Education has traditionally used either skill based approaches or cognition based ones, these approaches deal only with the conscious aspects of communication, and, therefore, seem to lack proper methodological considerations to manage the unconscious aspects of human interactions. Lacan developed his theories predicated on his clinical psychiatric practices, which serves to account for the unconscious dynamics of communication. In this paper, the author tries to synthesize Lacan's theories for the methodology of Communication Education and also present one particular example of classroom application oriented towards such synthesis. Discussions are made to indicate the importance and the need to include the unconscious aspects of human interactions in Communication Education for holistic pedagogical approaches.
