Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Role playing allows the students to practice assertive behavior and receive feedback about how the behavior is perceived. Lecture-discussion, peer-teaching, and printed materials are more useful for other learning needs.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Motivation and readiness to learn depend on what the patient values and perceives as important. The other questions are also important in developing the teaching plan, but do not address what information most interests the patient at present.
