This study analyzes communicative capacity as a key indicator of teaching excellence at Trent University (Canada). The participants were 158 faculty members who were given a questionnaire with 10 dimensions. The results highlight the need for communicative interaction and especially empathetic listeningin order to achieve visible excellence in university teaching.
