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: Hey, Adaline!! You may not have noticed, but every time we try to make plans to hang out, you keep cancelling on me. I just want to know why? I do understand if you are busy, but it's kinda funny how you somehow have something to do every time we try and hang out. I feel like you aren't telling me something, and I would like to at least know what the problem is, so I can try and fix it? |

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: Why I would still choose to communicate assertively is that using or being assertive while speaking to others can help a lot when trying to get a point across, or even just letting someone know something they may be doing wrong. Using assertiveness is not just about getting what you want; it can also be a more mature or polite way of speaking. |
