If we want to promote perspective taking in our students, probably the best strategy is to:
A)Encourage them to keep an open mind about things
B)Have them work closely with, and perhaps tutor, children at a younger grade level
C)Engage them in discussions in which they express diverse points of view
D)Punish them when they act in an extremely self-centered fashion

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Engaging students in discussions where they express diverse points of view can help them understand different perspectives and develop empathy. It allows them to see the world from someone else's point of view and encourages them to think beyond their own perspective. Option A is important but keeping an open mind does not necessarily translate into understanding others. Option B could work, but it cannot always be practical, and not all students have the opportunity to tutor younger students. Option D is not a viable option as it does not promote understanding, empathy or perspective taking.
