Week 2 Technique Summary #2

The technique summary is intended to be a shorthand tool for summarizing a technique. You will write about an individual technique and a systemic technique). I wanted to create a standard protocol or tool that would be used to access a theory in the same way each time.

Techniques Summaries: These assessments (11 total) are designed to help you become an active learner through consistent immersion in the concepts taught in this course. I want you to write professionally in the 3rd person, such as "Reflective listening is a technique that involves".... no use of 1st person. I predict that you will learn about yourself as you learn the course content. Length: 3 pages double-spaced 12 point Times New Roman font). If you use references, use APA style. Here is the format:
