LCE 102
Communication & Conflict in Communities: Approaches in Supporting Group Process & Decision Making

Total Units :: 3.0

This course prepares co-learners to take roles as facilitators and mediators within their work engaging diverse urban communities. Rooted in real life scenarios and challenges experienced in community engagement work in Hamilton and similar communities, co-learners will hone their skills in supporting effective communication and in mediating complex group dynamics. This course takes a blended learning approach, alternating online and face to face (F2F) interactions with the content, in order to explore frameworks for group development, facilitation, decision-making, and conflict resolution. Practical skills building is emphasized and supported through ongoing online dialogue and through F2F group-based skills-building activities. Co-learners will engage in ongoing personal reflection on how power, privilege, and identity intersect with the roles and characteristics required to authentically support grassroots leadership. Doing so will enhance their abilities to engage communities in moving through communication barriers and conflicts toward collaboratively defined goals and outcomes.
