An instructor is preparing to start a class where several learners have arrived late due to bad
weather. The general mood of the learners is poor. Which of the following is the BEST way to handle
this situation?
A.
Use humor that will create a positive mood.
B.
Tell the learners that the class will run late that day
C.
Have the learners introduce themselves.
D.
Proceed with the course material.
Time is of the essence. Start the course material, and then inject some levity. Do not focus on humor, that may backfire on you.
I am not challenging the answer as it is wrong in real life, but maybe right for the exam.
