Which is the best response to receiving a threatening text from a classmate?
How will you apply what you have learned about communication to develop better communication for yourself with teachers, family, or friends?
Answers will vary but may include the following: being aware of body language, tone of voice, or phrasing of messages sent via cell phone or face-to-face. Nonverbal communication is also important because our gestures can negate our words and sincerity. We need to be aware of what we say to ensure that the receiver gets the desired outcome. Good communication prevents misunderstandings, builds healthy relationships, and allows for people to express themselves.

What is the benefit of using neutral arguments to express oneself while in a conflict?
Neutral arguments avoid using "you" statements and, therefore, can assist in avoiding being perceived as offensive or indicating that you believe your opponent is unreasonable. It is best to use "I" statements rather than "you" statements, because it helps keep the tone of statements neutral, which avoids escalating the conflict.
