Essay: Write a 3-part assertive statement to a friend who keeps making plans with you and then cancelling at the last minute.
Student Answer: I know that you can be pretty busy sometimes and you do have your own personal life. Sometimes I spend a lot of time planning some events with you so that we could have fun and do things together. I want you to tell me beforehand when you aren't available so I don't spend too much time planning. |

Essay: When you choose to be assertive, you won't always get everything you want. With that in mind, why should you still choose to communicate assertively? Provide two reasons.
Student Answer: Communicating assertively shows that you are a person who knows what they want without being seen as a bad or soft person. It also increases your chances of getting what you want next time as long as you effectively communicate assertively. |
