Question

leilani and gina are discussing how to complete a school project. gina wants to start with an outline, but leilani wants to skip the outline. leilani tells gina that her ideas are not smart and makes a joke about it. how could the girls improve their communication skills? ○ gina needs to be more genuine in her reactions. ○ gina needs to express herself more honestly. ○ leilani needs to understand her goals better. ○ leilani needs to accept differences with respect.

Explanation:

The problem is about improving communication between two girls with differing project approaches. Leilani dismissed Gina's idea and made a joke, showing a lack of respect for differences. Analyzing options: Gina's reaction/expression isn't the issue here. Leilani not understanding goals isn't the main problem. The key is Leilani needing to respect Gina's different approach (accept differences with respect).

Answer:

D. Leilani needs to accept differences with respect.
