Q1. Answer the following -
a
Design a graphic organizer to take notes during a lecture on effective listening for the 10
following passage: (10 m)

Effective listening is an essential skill that greatly enhances communication and

understanding. It goes beyond simply hearing words; it involves actively engaging with the
speaker and processing their message. For example, giving the speaker your full attention,
without distractions like phones or background noise; helps ensure you're present in the
conversation. Understanding the message is another key aspect, which can be achieved by
asking clarifying questions or summarizing what the speaker has said. For instance, if
someone explains a new work process, repeating back the steps ensures you've grasped the
key points. Remembering important details, such as names or key ideas, allows for more
meaningful follow-up discussions. Empathy is also vital showing that you understand and
care about the speaker's feelings can strengthen the connection. Lastly, providing feedback,
both verbal and non-verbal(like nodding or saying I see"), lets the speaker know you're
engaged and encourage further conversation. When all these elements are in place, effective
listening helps reduce misunderstandings and fosters stronger, more productive relationships.
