If a student stays silent to avoid disagreement but later suffers from a wrong decision, which skill is needed?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Expressing one's view respectfully
The student needs assertive communication: expressing a view clearly and respectfully while listening to others. Assertiveness is different from aggression because it does not insult or silence people, and it is different from passivity because it does not hide relevant concerns. Sharing a reasoned concern early may help the group notice risks before finalising a poor decision.
