Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
An initial quote at the beginning capturing the meaning of the presentation or a humorous opening grabs the audience's attention. In a group presentation, the nurse will need to establish rapport with the audience. Preparation and practice can ensure that the presentation is clear, concise, and well spoken. The nurse should make eye contact immediately and continue to do so throughout the presentation. Extension of eye contact to all participants communicates acceptance and inclusion.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Rogers insists that the teacher must start where the learner is, structuring the learning process to support the learner's natural desire to learn and being mindful of learner characteristics that enable or impede the process.
