Advantages and disadvantages of group guidance.
Advantages of group guidance :-
1. Saving labor, money and time :-
Since many people can be guided at once in the group guidance process, labor, money and time are saved in the case of group guidance.
2. Opportunity for interaction between members :-
All the members participating in the group guidance can interact with each other. As a result, mutual transfer of experience occurs among the members.
3. Preventive guidance is possible :-
Personal guidance is given only to those who are affected by specific problems. But through group guidance, it is possible to inform students about different problems and as a result, students can prepare for the problems in advance.
4. Experience is possible due to different perspectives on the problem :-
Through group guidance, different perspectives on the problem arise. As a result, the individual can become familiar with different perspectives on the problem and develop his insight.
5. Information about students: -
In the group instruction process, the person who conducts the instruction gets the opportunity to come into contact with many students at the same time and gets the opportunity to be aware of their problems. This information is used in research in various educational, vocational and personality-related fields.
6. Increase in group cohesion: -
Through group instruction, the person realizes that many people are suffering from the same problem as him. Through instruction and group discussion, many solutions emerge. The person can solve his problem by applying all those solutions. The person's trust in the group instruction is developed and group cohesion increases.
7. Change in perspective on the problem: -
In the group guidance, multiple people get the opportunity to participate together. As a result, all the people can discuss their different problems among themselves. Their understanding of the problem becomes deep and comprehensive. As a result, their perspective on solving the problem changes.
Disadvantages of group guidance: -
1. Multiple people participate together in group guidance. But not all of them have the same type of problem. Therefore, not everyone gets the opportunity to benefit from group guidance.
2. In many cases, it is seen that the problem is the same, but the reasons are different. As a result, one solution does not work for everyone.
3. In the group guidance process, an attempt is made to solve the problem through a general established formula without deeply understanding the problem of the individual. As a result, it may not be effective for an individual.
4. If the person participating in the group guidance is introverted, then there is no opportunity to discuss his problem and solution.
5. If a person has a secret problem, it is never possible to discuss it in the group guidance process. In such a case, individual guidance is suitable.
6. If different opinions are present in the group guidance process, it is not possible to establish a consensus.
7. Since many people participate in group guidance together, it is often not possible to control them.
8. Many people do not want to express their personal problems in a group. In their case, individual guidance is more suitable.
