EDUC C34 - Group Theory and Techniques

(3)

Group Theory & Techniques provides both theoretical and experiential understandings of group purpose, development, dynamics, techniques and skills, and various group approaches. The course focuses on helping beginning group leaders apply their new knowledge to working in groups with children, adolescents, and adults across diverse settings. Counseling theories and their application to working with groups are given consideration throughout the course. Through the use of experiential activities, both in and outside the classroom, students will acquire experience in conducting counseling, psychoeducational, and task/work groups.
