Question

Read the following scenario.

Answer 1

The correct answer is A. Change the topic in order to briefly cover something, not on the agenda.

Explanation:

In discussions, ineffective group participation refers to a type of participation that does not contribute to the main objective of the discussion or that is not necessary. In the case presented, the discussion focuses on whether to add beanbags and lounge chairs and although, most people have already contributed to their participation there are five minutes left. Because in this case, effective group participation includes asking the people who have not participated to participate, summarizing main points, reminding the respect for other opinions and even telling the participants the time left. But in the case of "change the topic in order to briefly cover something, not on the agenda" this is mainly ineffective because it does not contribute to the discussion even though there is still time to focus on the main topic and purpose of the discussion and therefore this is not necessary and essential time would be wasted.

Answer 2

Definitely ineffective, change the topic in order to briefly cover something not on the agenda- that is an example of ineffective group participation.its the group leader insists that everyone come to an agreement in the next five minutes.
