Using Objects to Tell Stories of Group Work

Objects can help people with transitions and life changes, and even to maintain a sense of personal identity over time. Objects have been used to create a broader understanding of social work. How, then, might Objects help us understand more about group work? Can Objects help individuals in the process of becoming a group? Mark Doel, Professor Emeritus at Sheffield Hallam University, will help us consider the potential for objects, everyday or unusual, to explore our experiences and understanding of group work. Participants are requested to bring an Object to the session – perhaps one that is used in your direct work with groups or one that can represent your relationship to group work. The IASWG Red Apple Chapter will be providing refreshments.
