Abstract	The efforts associated with the communication competence movement, both within and without the Speech Communication Association, have done much to promote the inclusion of listening and speaking skills in the public schools to date, but areas remain where progress is still needed. Over the past 15 years, the most significant change has been the increase in recognition of and attention to oral communication. Other notable advances are evident in curriculum design, development in assessment criteria, improved contacts with professional associations in education, and integration of the language arts. One area with only minor progress is the problem of definitions, evidenced by inconsistent definitions of communication skills at the state, district, and local levels. Other areas in line for improvement include research into children's communication competence, greater impact on textbook writers for public schools, increased collaborative efforts by educators, and a renewed optimism within the educational community that oral communication competence can be achieved.
