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: Hello, I wanted to talk to you about our plans. I really like going to places with you and exploring, so it makes me upset when you cancel those plans.

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: You should choose to communicate assertively because it can still get your point across. Even if it doesn't go how you'd like, it's good to stand your ground since it can set you up for future situations. Being assertive can also make you feel good about yourself, which can help if you have self-doubt. |
