Self in Context
Section Info:
This hands-on course uses family genograms - a version of a family tree - to explore the complexity of human experience in the context of multigenerational family systems. Students construct and analyze genograms, including their own, using family systems theory and multigenerational development perspectives. Attention is given to critically examining one's own family history as a part of professional growth. Students will practice using genograms to assess families in popular media using novels, memoirs, films, and/or television shows. Case studies will be used throughout the course to expose students to diverse family experiences with specific attention to race and sociocultural context.
