Question 2
Kathleen struggles with an assignment that requires her to be part of a group presentation. She is very invested in presenting her own ideas in her own way and tends to devalue other group members' contributions. When she becomes frustrated about the direction a group assignment is taking, Kathleen says, They don't like me and they won't listen to my ideas. Laudene, Kathleen's one-on-one assistant, has observed the group's work on multiple occasions; she believes that Kathleen's ideas are respected and that the other members of the group are positive and fair with her. Laudene decides to work with Kathleen to help her develop alternative behaviors in this situation. Which of the following actions would Laudene most likely recommend that Kathleen take?
a. When you feel yourself getting frustrated, take five deep breaths and remind yourself that the goal of group work is for each student to contribute some ideas.
b. When the other members of your group are making you feel uncomfortable, tell them that you would appreciate it if they would stop the problem behavior.
c. When you feel the other members of your group are not listening to your ideas, come and tell me, and I'll help them understand.
d. When you feel yourself becoming upset, ask your teacher if you could be allowed to do an individual presentation instead of engaging with the group.
