PREREQUISITE

EDUC 323

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This course will focus on the development of basic interviewing skills and methods to foster human

relationships. There will be an emphasis in the personal use of a variety of active listening skills. This will be

accomplished through an experience/reflection format with opportunities to practice particular skills and by

video recording a number of your active listening skills. These skills are not meant to reflect any one theory of

counselling but are seen as fundamental to the development of helping relationships. Due to the experiential

nature of this course, attendance at all sessions is an integral component of the course.

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

On completion, it is hoped that this course will:

a.

Increase your awareness of your own natural resources for helping others.

b.

Enable you to understand and demonstrate the appropriate use of a broad repertoire of specific helping

skills.

c.

Enable you to more fully understand the interrelationship between your personality and your personal

functioning and the processes and skills involved in becoming an effective helper.

d.

Enable you to investigate more deeply the reasons why people behave as they do and how to effectively

intervene to help people change.
