Beyond Role-Playing: Using Technology to Enhance Modeling and Behavioral Rehearsal in Group Work Practice
Smokowski, Paul R.
Journal for Specialists in Group Work, v28 n1 p9-22 Mar 2003
Videotape and computer simulation are sophisticated technological applications that have great potential to enhance group work practice. Computer simulation has been harnessed for entertainment and business purposes but has not been adequately utilized for teaching social skills. This article describes strategies for integrating video and computer simulation into group work practice. These technologies can contribute new vitality to traditional group activities that involve modeling and behavioral rehearsal. Issues involved in creating and using computer simulations are reviewed, barriers to implementation are discussed, and recommendations for group work practice are proposed. (Contains 1 figure.)
