Discussion
Phase Models in Group Development
Teach the class: Reflect on a time when you were part of a relatively small group, and with reference
to this experience, explain Tuckman’s Model of Group Development stages to the class. Walk your
classmates through the forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning stages of this model
in relation to the group-development experience that is the basis of your reflection. If for some
reason your group did not make it to the performing or adjourning stages (for example), then explain
your hypotheses as to why the group did not make it this far. Be specific with the description of each
stage. Include an additional relevant scholarly source to enhance your work and the learning of your
peers in class.

Ensuring Racial Justice and Health Equity in OB/GYN

Posted on | by Brian Leakey

In the brief discussion, “Ensuring Racial Justice and Health Equity in OB/GYN,” Dr. Washington Hill discusses the problem of “social determinants of health.” Essentially, he notes that experiences of race, gender, and sexuality shape health care and health access –thus shaping individual health experiences.
Choose one of these suggestions offered in this editorial and think about how these ideas could be implemented. Do your best to be specific–this is a challenge that speaks to the real-world work experiences of nurses, doctors, social workers, teachers, health educators, and individuals employed in the insurance industry. Of course, it also relates to all individuals who seek medical help!
How might these suggestions for addressing the social context of health care be important for all of us to take seriously?
