Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What Is the Discussion Leader's Job?
The making of the closing summary allows the leader an opportunity to call the group's attention to possible topics for future meetings. Particularly where the subject just discussed has been a broad one, assessment of the point so far reached frequently makes it apparent that only one aspect has been covered. In that case the groupmay wish to continue the same subject for the next meet ing or for the next several meetings, and work out with the leader appropriate subdivisions to be successively taken up. For instance, a general topic like The state and the farmer might be broken down into Why have a What changes are desirable in local and national government What should be the relationship Of government to agriculture?
On the other hand, if the group is inclined to feel that it wants to move on to a new subject, the summary may Offer the leader opportunity to suggest possibilities which have grown out Of the discussion just ended. Discussion Of soil conservation may lead naturally into discussion Of tenancy or Of farm income; discussion Of taxation may lead naturally into discussion of the functions Of government. By point ing out potential subjects embedded in the group's current interests the leader can Offer notable guide service.
