Group Dynamics is a course designed to introduce students to the experiential group dynamics process. An experiential group's primary focus is on developing a student's understanding of group-level processes and of his or her own behavior in groups. The method is essentially inductive, moving from specific group experience to general ideas about group processes. By drawing on their own resources, students attempt to come to terms with the task of becoming a group and increasing their understanding of group processes.
