    Group Process Report – Template

    This is a ‘report’ not and ‘essay’ – so you need to organise the report using the following headings as a guide. You do not need an introduction or conclusion.

    Please Use the following Headings to Organise Your Group Process Report

    • Name of Group: (if it is not clear in the video, please make up an appropriate name for the group)

    • Type of Group: (task or treatment group? What kind of task or treatment group?)

    • Description of Group (number of members, male/female, approximate ages, location etc)

    • Length of Observed Group Interaction: (how long is the video – how long did you observe the group for)
    •
    Brief General Description of what is occurring: (What happens in the video? )

    • Estimated stage of group: (link to group work theory – do you think the group at a beginning, middle or end stage in its life – why?)

    • Group Dynamics: (analyse the dynamics that you see. For exmaple – what role are the members playing, who talks the most, who is quite, why might that be?, what leadership types are you seeing? – link to group work theory)

    • Strategies and Techniques: (What group work techniuqes and strategies do you think the leader is using? Why? Linking to group work theory)
