Abstract
The primary purpose of this literature review was to determine which aspects of
communicative behaviour of lecturers assisted in promoting learning within a
traditional teaching context. From a variety of research results it appears that there is
a positive relationship between lecturers' perceived credibility and learners' motivation
to learn as well as their cognitive, affective and behavioural learning. It has been
shown that although the classic third dimension of credibility, namely goodwill or
intention towards the receiver, has become one with the dimension of character over the
years, it still fulfils a role rich in meaning in instructional communication. In this
regard there is a variety of mutually related forms of behaviour evident in lecturers
from which lecturers can make a choice in order to improve their credibility. These
forms of behaviour may be divided into three broad categories, namely affinity-seeking,
immediacy and caring, although some of the subdivisions of these may well overlap. It
is recommended that lecturers be made aware, through some or other orientation
programme, of the dimensions of credibility and the role this plays in effective
instructional communication. If attention is not paid to this, the anxiety regarding
instructional communication which currently exists could degenerate into a nightmare.
