The decision they practise
In the main activity, “Find the four problems”, learners spot the red flags in a realistic document and see the effect of each choice. In “We’ve always done it this way”, 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 “Prioritise by risk” and “Ordered or involved”.
How you know they finished
