TEXT C LISTENING People's evaluation of their listening ability is much like their assessment of their driving skills; they think they are above average. Good listening is much more than being silent when the other person talks. Sitting there silently nodding does not provide evidence that a person is listening. Asking a good question tells the speaker that the listener has not only heard what was sald, but also understood it well enough to want additional Information. ood listening is characterised by the creation of a safe environment in which Issues .nd differences could be discussed openly.
