Download or read book Group Dynamics in the Language Classroom written by Zoltán Dörnyei and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-10-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working, learning and living in groups is a central feature of humans, and therefore the study of groups called group dynamics is a vibrant academic field, overlapping diverse areas such as psychology, sociology, business studies and political science. It is also highly relevant to language education because the success of classroom learning is very much dependent on how students relate to each other, what the classroom climate is like, what roles the teacher and the learners play and, more generally, how well students can cooperate and communicate with each other. This innovative book addresses these issues and offers practical advice on how to manage language learner groups in a way that they develop into cohesive and productive teams. Educators interested in communicative language teaching will particularly welcome this book as a useful guide in their day-to-day teaching practice.

This book was released on 2009-09-16 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The field has been waiting for a masterpiece like Racial and Cultural Dynamics in Group and Organizational Life for a long time. It provides a thoughtful account of the subtle, barely visible, and sometimes unspeakable influences of racial and cultural dynamics that occur in groups." —Leo Wilton, Binghamton University, State University of New York "I believe that by focusing on group diversity, this book aligns with a major trend that has not received enough attention." — Christopher J. McCarthy, University of Texas at Austin This book presents a theoretical framework for understanding leadership and authority in group and organizational life. Using relational psychoanalytic and systems theory, the authors examine conscious and unconscious processes as they relate to racial and cultural issues in the formation and maintenance of groups. Unique among group dynamics texts, the book explores aspects of racial and cultural influences in every chapter. Readers will enhance their analytic and practice skills in addressing factors that impact diverse groups and organizations, including ethical considerations, social roles, strategies for leadership, dynamics of entering and joining, and termination. Key Features Case examples help readers integrate theory and practice, as illustrated in transcripts of interactions from group sessions. A group work competencies list ensures that readers master concepts as they progress through the book. An assessment form allows the student or practitioner to evaluate concrete dynamics of groups, such as size, and gendered and racial composition. This text is appropriate for graduate-level courses incorporating group dynamics and multicultural topics in departments of psychology, education, counseling, and social work. It is also a valuable resource for counselors, psychologists, and other mental health professionals in preparation for group work.

Download or read book Group dynamics in the multiethnic school written by Debora Mugnaini and published by Youcanprint. This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper focuses on group dynamics in the multiethnic school and their implications for students' social-emotional integration and development. The study examines the history of schooling in Italy, with particular attention to the transition towards a multi-ethnic school. In addition, the role of intelligence tests in school and the criticisms associated with them are analysed. Another important area of investigation concerns the phenomenon of migration in Italy and its history, as well as the effects of migration on individuals and society. In particular, it examines the integration process of migrants in the Italian school and the challenges they can face in their psycho-social adaptation. The development of the social self and the identity of the migrant are further explored, using the theory of self discrepancy and the theory of social perception. The role of categorization and stereotypes in social perception and in the formation of social patterns is also analysed. The second part of the study focuses on group dynamics, including conformity, obedience and social identity. It examines the basic principles of Social Identity theory (Tajfel, 1979) and social influence both by the majority and by the minority. Finally, interactions in groups are explored, with a focus on prejudice and its manifestations, including those at a young age. The goal is to understand group dynamics in the multi-ethnic school in order to promote integration and create an inclusive environment for all students. Through an in-depth analysis of current theories and research in the field of social psychology, this thesis provides a comprehensive overview of group dynamics in the multiethnic school and offers suggestions for interventions and strategies aimed at fostering student integration and well-being.
