Abstract
This editor’s note calls communication educators to respond to contemporary challenges (including AI, institutional pressures, and persistent inequities) with ethical, relational, and accountable pedagogy. It frames the volume as an invitation to ask better questions and enact pedagogical values through everyday classroom practice.
