Class Presentations of Treatment Approach

Feedback Form for Class Presentations

At the beginning of the semester you will be asked to break into groups and choose an approach that you will present to the class. The approach should be one that at least one of the group members is also using in their case analysis assignment.

The oral presentation should be a maximum of 35 minutes , not including about 10 minutes of class discussion at the end. Please note that if you plan to use your own laptop computer with a wireless connection, you will need to run the University's Quickstart1 Security Tool. Include in your presentation:

• brief descriptions of the presenting problem and of the relevant cultural characteristics of the worker and the client (the description of the worker’s cultural characteristics should include specific information from the one of the chapters of the McGoldrick et al. that you’ll be reading early in the semester

• an overview of the primary components of treatment approach you are gong to be illustrating

• an explanation for why the approach you chose was most appropriate for addressing the presenting problem

• a description of the context of the role play that you’re going to do , including an overview of what transpired in previous sessions that includes at least 3 distinct assessment and/or interventions associated with the approach and an explanation of at least 1 example of cultural competence

• a description the interventions and/or skills that you are going to be demonstrate in the role play

• a two-person role play, with one “observer”, that illustrates at least 1 distinct intervention associated with the approach, as well as good interviewing techniques (with the latter including both verbal and communication that demonstrates being closely “in tune” with the client) This can be a "live" role play or a taped one. Students may use an alternative method of this part of their presentation as long as they discuss their plan with the Instructor ahead of time

• descriptions from the role play’s “client”, “worker”, and “observer” of what they experienced—both subjectively and objectively--in participating in or observing the role play

• discussion of what each of the presenters “most” and “least” liked about the approach

• a class discussion facilitated by the three presenters that includes an opportunity for class questions and feedback about the approach and the presentation
