? Credit Points : 20 ? SCQF Level : 11 ? Acronym : HEA-P-DGB

This course aims to provide students with a shared experience of group dynamics. Learning is mainly through experience and reflection, with some lectures. Students take part in a group facilitated by a lecturer. The students keep a reflective diary of this experience. Each week students co-reflect with another member of the group. At the end of the experiential group students choose five themes that arose. These are then discussed in seminars and lectures in the second semester..
