  • Explain How To Identify And Amplify Solution Patterns From The Group Member's Perspective

    609 Words  | 3 Pages

    There are several things that I could do to be able to identify and amplify solution patterns from the group member’s perspective. To begin, as the social worker I would need to make sure I am using language that will help to facilitate members in achieving their goals and seeing the change they desire (Greene & Lee, 2011). This means that I will have to adapt to the language of the group and introduce what is known as novelty into the session (Greene & Lee, 2011). This means that any suggestion, information, or ideas that I provide to the group in regards to different coping mechanisms will not be seen as factual information, but should be seen as just giving them something to think about (Greene & Lee, 2011). By doing this, it will allow the croup members to look at the possibilities of what is being said and they are then able to decide if it is something they would like to discuss or even consider.

  • Intake Team Reflection

    Working in the Intake team is really challenging me because it is the first contact with client and it is important to engage client in the first time. At here, I have not only learned how importance to engage a client into the process; but also, it is a good practice that I can apply theories and be sensitive on the way of engaging clients. As Egan and Maidment (2009) emphasizes engagement is the first step where a practitioner starts to build up a trust relationship and partnership with a client in the helping process. This is also the first notion that a social worker and a client starts to create a connection and climate in which the client can participate (Egan & Maidment, 2009; Thompson, 2000). Reflecting on my first interview with Mrs Lee, the first time she came to our office, she was nervous, shaking.

  • Kurt Lewin's Group Dynamics, Field Theory And Group Theory

    1455 Words  | 6 Pages

    Most Efficient forms of the learning process: - Acc. to Lewin, learning is best facilitated in an environment where there is dialectic tension and conflict between immediate, concrete experience and analytic detachment. By bringing together the immediate experiences of the trainees and the conceptual models of the staff in an open atmosphere where inputs from each perspective could challenge and stimulate the other, a learning environment occurred with remarkable vitality and creativity. (Kolb.)  Pillars of an efficient learning mechanism in group settings:- o Feedback:-There was a concern that organizations, groups and relationships generally suffered from a lack of accurate information about what was happening around their performance. Feedback became a key ingredient of T-groups and was found to ‘be most effective when it stemmed from here-and-now observations, when it followed the generating event as closely as possible, and when the recipient checked with other group members to establish its validity and reduce perceptual distortion’ (Yalom 1995: 489). o Unfreezing:-This was taken directly from Kurt Lewin’s change theory.

    Although members are quite used to students on placement, understandably my presence at first created feelings of uncertainty, distrust and tension among group members. My own lack of confidence and assertiveness no doubt contributed to this, and although group facilitation required me to establish a relationship with participants, I appreciated that I had to earn the space to do this. Lee (2003), offers an interesting explanation of the difficulties for group facilitators in setting themselves apart from the group, whilst also being acceptable to them. I therefore felt it would be helpful to establish a relationship with the group, before responding to members individually, so that I could observe how each member of the group interacted with others. In doing so I came to understand how group work requires systemic thinking, that recognises how the actions of individuals are linked with the context of the wider group.
