Task Instructions

Part A requires you to define the relevant and essential behaviours and micro skills presented in the curriculum during Modules 1-3.

You are required to:
a) Discuss the three essential behaviours and choose three other microskills that are needed to form a professional/collegial relationship and provide a clear definition of each (approx. 300 words).
b) Describe how and why each behaviour or microskill is fundamental to creating a professional/collegial relationship (approx. 300 words).
c) Explain how these micro-skills and behaviours might be used differently when working within culturally diverse populations and provide at least one example using a specific culture (approx. 300 words).
To prepare for this assessment, it is important that you have read and integrated the curriculum presented in Modules 1-3 and completed all the learning material. Whilst a formal writing structure (e.g., introduction, main body, conclusion) is not necessary, in-text citation and a reference list are required. Inclusion of at least two references in APA style is essential to achieve a passing grade in this assessment. Use of the first person is acceptable in answering the second part of the question however it should not be used when referring to the literature.
