  • Why is this information about a First Nations useful for human service practitioners?
  • Research the First Nation to find answers to the questions above. Use this information to develop a comprehensive description of the First Nation you have chosen.

Active Listening Discussion

Post your answers to the following questions to the “Active Listening” Discussion forum.

  • What was it like to be a non-verbal listener? Was it easy to listen intensely? Was it hard to keep your mind from wandering? What did you learn about yourself as a listener?
  • What was it like to be the speaker? Did you feel listened to? What did the other person do that make you feel that they were not listening and what did they do to make you feel listened to? What was it like to feel listened to or not? What were your feelings?
