There is no "current terminal" when running from cron.
By default, cron sends an email containing output from the job. Your local mail subsystem delivers that to the file /var/spool/mail/$USER, and you can read it using mail, mailx, or your preferred local email client.
There's no particular reason why you couldn't get your cron job to write its output to a file in your home directory, for example like this:
* * * * * date >$HOME/.current_date 2>&1
And if you're running a GUI you can use notify-send to write messages in a pop-up on your screen. BUT it's not straightforward to do this from cron. Have a search around StackExchange for solutions to this sub-problem.
