Conversational Skills in Psychology is a practical course that requires a lot of active participation from teachers and students, both during the workgroup meetings and beyond. You will actively use role plays during the workgroup meetings, reflect on yourself, and receive and give feedback. In addition to the workgroup meetings, you will work on individual and team-based self-study assignments, which will often involve performing and reflecting on role plays. Different cases will be used in the workgroup meetings, to familiarize yourself with specific aspects of working with various individuals and different types of problems.
