Many instructors have been forced to instantly shift from the brick and mortar classroom to a virtual online environment. In addition, many companies and organizations are realizing that working in teams will never be the same. Some are permanently shifting to virtual work spaces after realizing efficiency gains and cost savings. Small Group Communication: Principles in Action introduces group theory and practice with an emphasis on application including guides to virtual group communication. The online course package provides ongoing case studies demonstrating the chapter material in a traditional classroom group, as well as a workplace group. Each chapter concludes with case study discussion questions allowing students an opportunity to reflect after reading the chapter, as well as engage in higher-level group dialogue. The authors balance theory and practice throughout the text in an effort to engage students by allowing them to form more meaningful connections to the material by drawing from over 50 years of combined experience leading and facilitating groups in both private and non-profit sectors.
