| Abstract: | As part of Erasmus+ project: “Active and inclusive teaching of literacy and communication skills for enhanced employment and sustainable economic growth (IN-COMM GUIDE)”, university curricula of Slovenian study programs were analyzed. For purpose of this paper, curricula at Slovenian public and private universities were analyzed. The research focused on the question of which innovative methods were used for teaching communication skills, and whether travel writing, movement, and sign languages are included. Analysis showed that there were no innovative methods included in the curricula. It was shown that among all the curricula, there is none that has as its subject travel writing. In three curricula in total, the subject of sign language was found and six analyzed curricula were related to movement. Being active was found in curricula of Faculties of Education. We can conclude that curricula on communication skills at Slovenian universities still have room for further development, innovation and improvement. This chapter of the monograph also includes interviews that were conducted with representatives from the Association of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Associations of Slovenia and Association of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing of Podravje, Maribor. |
