Written for the small group communication course, Effective Group Discussion combines the most recent research findings relevant to understanding small groups with the practical tools students need to become productive group members. This text's implementation of research and theory in the systems approach framework provide students with a unique understanding of the scholarship in this field. This leading text is about secondary groups of all kinds: work groups, committees, task forces, self-directed work teams, and other small groups whose objectives include finding solutions to problems, producing goods, and creating policies. Gloria Galanes has become the lead author and brings a vast knowledge of computer-mediated group communication and culture that is reflected in this edition.

Communicating in Groups: Applications and Skills

ADAMS

The idea for this book originated at NCA's summer institute Catching Ourselves in the Act: A Collaborative Planning Session to Enrich our Discipline through Social Construction Approaches. The conference provided the opportunity to interact with like-minded others to discuss how social construction approaches influence, or should influence, our work. Another goal for the conference and for the book is to promote social construction approaches within the discipline. When we teach, how can we best clarify the social construction principles we believe in, and how can we convey the passion we feel for this approach. This book hopes to extend the conversation about social construction approaches and to invite others to participate in that conversation.
