Working in Groups Learning Objectives
Goals:
My learning goals for this course are to understand and define group work and its purpose, to explore the pro’s and con’s of group work, and to understand how group work pertains to psychiatric nursing.
How they were met:
I believe my learning goals were reached this semester through utilizing the textbook, participating in online postings and discussions and identifying the purpose and nature of group work and its importance to psychiatric nursing. Upon completion of this course I feel I had a better understanding of the significance behind supporting, relating and learning from my classmates. I also recognized how to implement group work concepts into my practice through utilizing the skills, therapeutic factors and attitudes such as interpersonal learning and group cohesiveness that I learned. Within my cohort we also had some conflicts, conflict resolution was implemented and we all finished the course with a positive experience and conflict resolution tools that may not have come up otherwise.
