If a student's words are respectful but they repeatedly interrupt the other person, what is the most accurate evaluation?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Polite language is being used, but active-listening skills are weak.
Polite vocabulary demonstrates courtesy, but effective communication also requires giving the other person time to finish and showing that the message has been heard. Repeated interruption weakens active listening and can disrupt the speaker’s meaning. Courtesy alone cannot remove every communication barrier.
