Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Danielle is actively listening, which involves making an effort to understand and engage with the speaker's message. This type of listening requires concentration and focus on the part of the listener, and is often done in situations where information or instructions need to be retained for later use, such as in a classroom setting. The other types of listening listed (appreciative, discriminative, empathic) are focused on different goals, such as enjoying a piece of music, distinguishing between different sounds, or understanding and connecting with another person's emotions.
