The program was developed from a family systems theory perspective and focuses on various issues pertaining to communication. Using this theoretical base, the “Building A Better Me” Program is designed for implementation with children six to ten years of age, in an after-school setting and includes lessons that provide opportunity to build positive communication; conflict resolution and problem solving skills; recognition and expression of feelings along with increased positive self-esteem; and relationship building activities. Lessons allow facilitators to stress the influences that good self-esteem and relationships have on modes of communication as they are an important part of a child’s social and emotional competence and play a key role in development throughout his/her adolescent years. Evaluation of the “Building a Better Me” Program resulted in data supporting the effectiveness of such a program in an after school setting. 2006-12-11 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1165867093 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1165867093 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
