Sažetak
The paper deals with small educational groups and their dynamics in their actual psychosocial and educational function. The introductory part offers an overview of the general knowledge about groups, the progression of opinions and ideas about them, studying them, division, features, functions and group mechanisms. The empirical research
is based upon small educational groups within the system of education for students of social work at the University of Mostar. The research results show that, regardless of very small number of meetings, the structured and intensive group work in class as well as the degree of mutual knowing each other was statistically significantly higher at the last, the seventh, than at the first meeting. It has been shown that the degree of self-disclosure among the members of the group progressed significantly over time and is statistically significantly higher at the seventh than at the first meeting. It also turns out, that the representation of topics related to teaching and work at practice in relation to the socioemotional topics statistically significantly higher only at the first meeting, while the two themes in the fourth and the seventh meeting are equalized. The distribution of roles in the survey participants is inquired - how the group members choose the roles and how their choices change during group development.
