The decision they practise
In the main activity, “Rewrite Grace’s renewal letter”, learners rewrite a realistic document line by line and see the effect of each choice. In “Just hit your targets”, a face-to-face conversation, learners practise what to say and do when the other person pushes back. The wrong options are things a well-meaning person might genuinely say, and the feedback explains why each one is tempting. Short animations show “Building a good outcome”; and “Spot it on the call, or after?”.
