Summary:This work provides a forthright critical discussion aimed at providing salient insights into the quiet and under-realized transactional nature of education, schooling, teaching, student participation, and learning. The work is based upon five major interacting premises regarding the role, nature, and relationship between transactional communication and equity pedagogy, which place opportunities to teach and learn in flux. Throughout this book the topic/issue of transitional communication's critical role serves as the unifying source regarding the transdisciplinary nature of the information and perspectives presented 90 plus percent of activities which occurs in the classroom involves the social-perception experiences of interpersonal-cultural communication, pre-dispositions and inclinations, regarding power and felt empowerment, and one's lived positionality experiences. Transactional communicative awareness, critical reflection, and cultural responsiveness enhances equality of opportunities to teach and learn in view of the demands ensured during a course of study or term of study.
