The decision they practise
In the main activity, “Check Zoe’s induction checklist”, learners fix a realistic form and see the effect of each choice. In “Brian at the gate”, 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 “Zoe’s first hour without an induction” and “Two first mornings”.
