- 03Checking properly
- 04Responding well
The decision they practise
In the main activity, “Find the five red flags”, learners spot the red flags in a realistic document and see the effect of each choice. In “Just sign it”, 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 “What you can see, tier by tier”; and “Red flag, or just a good deal?”.
