PREREQUISITE

EDUC 323

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This curse 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

com p

onent 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.
