If a student listens carefully to others in a group discussion and then gives a suggestion connected to their ideas, which communication skill does the student demonstrate?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Collaborative communication
Collaborative communication involves listening to others, valuing their contributions, and building on them to move a shared discussion forward. The student is not dominating or withdrawing; the connected suggestion shows participation and cooperation. Aggressive communication dismisses or overwhelms others, passive communication avoids contribution, and one-way communication lacks exchange.
