For courses in Group Dynamics & Counseling and Cooperative Learning. Clear, concise, step-by-step coverage of the theory and research relevant to group dynamics and the practical skills needed to ensure success in working with and in groups. A broad, integrative, unique overview of group dynamics, this book bridges the gap between theory, research, and practice, and combines a conceptual understanding of group dynamics with what's needed to develop effective small group skills. In it readers are involved in the content that combines the theoretical and empirical knowledge now available on group dynamics with practical ways to apply that knowledge in groups to which readers actually belong. Constructed so that the theory and research on group dynamics is taught experientially through exercises and simulations included in the book, Joining Together provides the ideal combination for ensuring success in working with groups. All important areas of group dynamics are included, from the history of the field to decision making and conflict management, and applied chapters focus on such practical areas as valuing diversity, cooperative learning, leading counseling groups, and team development and training. Accessible, clear, and practical, it gives students the tools and skills they need to be effective group members and to ensure the effectiveness of any group to which they belong.
