TLC II. Talking, Listening, Communicating II. A Curriculum Guide for Small Groups.
Treat, Carol Lou; Bormaster, Jeff
This workbook provides affective education activities in building human relations skills in elementary and secondary school students in small discussion groups. Goals of the talking-listening-communicating (TLC) groups are: to develop positive regard for individual differences; to build a sense of belonging; to foster horizontal, nonauthoritative relationships; and to maximize the development of human potential. The workbook is divided into six sections: (1) getting ready to lead--philosophy behind and techniques for conducting TLC groups; (2) building groups--developing a group perspective among individual participants; (3) tapping group creativity--activities promoting cooperation and teamwork among group members; (4) group decision making--building concensus-making skills; (5) group problem solving--activities for identifying, analyzing, and solving problems through group methods; and (6) final words--a precautionary note on the importance of bringing the group experience to an effective close.
