This document is one in a set of eight staff development training manuals developed to facilitate the efforts of educators in the planning and implementation of comprehensive career guidance programs on the secondary level (7-12). This series is based on the goals and developmental objectives identified by the Georgia Comprehensive Career Guidance Project. (See CE 018 130 for the final report of this project.) The introduction of each manual outlines these goals and objectives under the following three domains: interpersonal effectiveness; work and life skills; and life career planning. The eight activities presented in this manual on deliberate psychological education (growth through human understanding) encourage maximum participant involvement and small group experiences. These activities are based on the following goals: to appreciate the need for students to take part in experiential activities; to define human growth in terms of developmental stages; to identify skills needed for developing self-knowledge and effective interpersonal relationships; and to outline the beginning procedures for inaugurating a course in deliberate psychological education. (This manual is designed to accompany another training manual on self validation, CE 018 157. The other six staff development guides are available as ERIC documents CE 018 147, CE 018 150, CE 018 152, CE 018 154, CE 018 157-158, and CE 018 161.) (BM)
