Presentation of a group

be outlining a rather large learning curve which occurred for me when we were given a group presentation to complete our transition to professional life module and thus the critical incident I choose. The prompt for the presentation was to market our course to potential students on a university open day and we were told to focus on the four P’s; Plan, Prepare, Practice, Present. There were four people in my group and we all came up with a plan to delegate the workload evenly each of us taking a…

don’t have a voice. I am an active participant in class and hold leadership roles in practically everything I am involved in. I hope to gain the raw skills of persuasive communication and to increase my level of confidence while I am speaking to a group. I have aspired to be an entrepreneur…

incongruence, power relations, time limitations and lack of teamwork highlights the need for inter-professional practice. In this essay, I will explore the art of communication, goals and role performance and reflect on how these factors affected our group presentation for the FIPP module this semester. Reflection is a more…

Hispanic Heritage Month: Starting September 15th, and to October 15th our Spanish class celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month. It was an interesting learning experience overall, and it made for some unique days in class that could’ve otherwise been what seemed like days of more paperwork and material to study. (Which isn’t exactly a bad thing either.) There were some things that I enjoyed, but also some things that could’ve been improved upon. So, what about our celebration in class of Hispanic…

There are plenty of mental health issues that can be addressed in a mental health group where teaching can be done to help patients learn and improve their quality of life. The mental health issue that we addressed in our group at Harding Hospital was geared towards nutrition and exercise. Healthy eating determines the nutrients that circulate in your system and affects the function of not only the body but the mind as well (Mental Health America 2010). Since there are many patients that come…

Presentation The first stage of group work is the forming stage, which is also known as excited stage (Tuckman and Jensen, 1977). According to Tuckman’s theory of group development the forming stage is for developing trust with group members, making contact, bonding and agreeing on common goals. A group is initially concerned about orienting themselves with knowing boundaries of the group (Smith, 2005). I did not know anyone in the group but at the same time I realized I would know them as we…

Sexual Wellness within the Alaskan Foster Care System The number of Alaskan foster youth is at a record high; just over 2,700 children are in foster care (Dobbyn, 2015). Foster youth are at a disproportional risk to contract sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and experience unwanted pregnancy (Hudson, 2012). Foster youth, in general, state the major reason why these issues exist is a lack of education and relationships with healthcare providers (Hudson, 2012). Alaska has high rates of STIs…

At many times in the project, I found myself directing the division of work and the other members in the group. I am also thankful for the leadership of my other group members. With only a week to finish this process, each and every minute counts. We developed a list of goals and a schedule that we followed. Management such as this can be used in all facets of business. I hope to take…

For the deliberative presentation, my group was assigned to address problem number two. My group went through all of the phases of the Phase Theory of Group Development. On our first day, we went through the orientation phase. Because our class is small we all knew each other but when we got together as a group for this assignment we tried to get to know each other and we discussed the issue of mental health in our university and what each one of us has observed. Overall that day was dedicated…

establish a set of vague of personalities descriptions. Although I was aware that Myers Briggs personality test are used by companies all over the world, I knew that they lack scientific credibility. Despite these doubts I have approached the Module 4 Group Assignment with positive and enthusiastic attitude. Surprisingly my Myers Briggs test turned out to be very close to reality. I have been classified as ENFP which described me as” independent, energetic and compassionate person, that can…
