Overview
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.
