Description - Groups by Glyn Elwyn
Small group work is an extremely powerful tool for achieving deep learning in an educational setting building teams and effecting organisational change problem solving strategic planning and redesigning processes. Most people in key positions in higher education and the workplace still fail to recognise the power and potential of small group work. At the same time small group work is becoming extremely popular in many organisations but many people who attempt to run small groups have no formal training and are unaware that the inappropriate and indiscriminate use of small group techniques can be damaging. Recent research has demonstrated two things: participation increases motivation and learning and small group processes are complex dynamic and need expert facilitation to work effectively. This book provides a practical guide to when and how to use small group work in educational organisational and research settings. If you are getting to a position in your career in whatever field where you have to work in a group then you will benefit from reading this book.
If you have any form of responsibility for leading or facilitating a group then the book will provide a primer on how to set about the many tasks you will face.
