The group dynamics were studied first by the German psychologist, nationalized American, Kurt Lewin (1890-1947), recognized as the founder of social psychology and promoter of Gestalt psychology. This movement techniques of group dynamics emerge.
Lewin Field Theory applied his paradigm of social forces emerging in the groups. In his theory, he claimed that individual variations of human behavior in relation to the rule are conditioned by the tension between the perception that the individual himself has of himself and psychological environment in which it is located, ie, the living space.
The technique of group dynamics refers to how the group work is organized through an educator or facilitator to pursue the goals it aims effectively.

Muchas gracias por el contenido. Me parece muy pertinente aclarar que "juntarse para jugar" no es necesariamente una dinámica de grupo.
Muy buen artículo sobre unas actividades que deberían de contar más en la sociedad. Espero que tras esta pandemia se empiece a trabajar de otra manera y la sociedad española y sus instituciones valoren más la educación no formal.
