HSV 212 Group Experience & Self-Evaluation
This course will explore group dynamics and how groups are used in social work practice. Group progression (stages) and varied theoretical models will be examined. Also addressed will be ethical guidelines that govern the formation and maintenance of group process. Students will explore the historical framework for group development, structure of a group, group dynamics, the role of the leader, as well as the varied types of groups. In addition, students will be introduced to varied models of group dynamics that occur, subsequent to group membership. The basic thrust of this class is experiential where the classroom becomes a place for the student to practice and develop group leadership skills. Assessment will be based on successful demonstration of theory to real world application ( transfer of knowledge).
