Find and describe connections between the ideas that are shared.
Explanation:
The question asks you to choose the action that is “most likely to help or improve a COLLABORATIVE discussion about literature.”
Let’s look at the options.
Choice 2: Choose one person to call on people who wish to speak about the story.
• This could foster collaboration, but it could also give one student too much power and in the process, take away the voices of others.
Choice 3: Argue with each person who shares a perspective on the story.
• Arguing brings about hostility rather than collaboration.
Choice 4: Give each person exactly one minute to speak before letting someone else talk.
• This could foster collaboration by giving people equal opportunities to talk, but such rigid guide lines could also limit the freedom and flow of a discussion.
That leaves us with the first choice, which makes the most sense and has no negative side to it.
