Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Each childbirth education class has a group life of its own, and the responsibility for the group functioning is shared among all members. Experimental learning derived through group functioning has the potential for being as significant as the learning of specific skills. Formulating a contract between the teacher/leader and the members of the class can help in clarifying realistic objectives and goals. The teacher/leader can assist couples to learn new behavior and to confront their own feelings about becoming patents.
