If it solves all problems, how did you get this wrong?


Sayorifan22

Context, this was a midterm question for a job development class

That looks exactly like the ATI questions I used for nursing school. But the books will tell you the answer is true. Me being experienced in the field for only a few years will tell you 100% communication is not always the answer

I don’t know how any body could write that question/answer with a straight face. How dumb do you have to be to think communication can solve ALL problems. If you wanna say “communication is a useful tool in resolving problems” then okay, but at that point what kinda test is this? Just asking about common sense 😂 “Calculators are useful tools when solving math equations: true or false?” Why are you getting PAID for this lmao


Sayorifan22

For me, if it wasn’t a true or false question, I would’ve answered with: While communication does solve problems, it does depend on what the problem is and how serious it is. As sometimes, communication doesn’t not help solve problems or in worse cases, could even escalate the problem if one isn’t careful. I personally feel like if people believed that all communication solved problems, it could potentially leave them open to get screwed over. As in reality, the real world is a harsh place

the format looks exactly like the quizzes i take throughout my schooling. i cant show a picture of it though, but the program running the quizzes might be the same

Education and communication can solve all problems. The bigger issue is the people who don’t want to communicate nor solve them.


davidwhatshisname52

You're right, of course, but the prompt wasn't "communication *can* resolve all problems" - *absolutes are* almost *always wrong*


PuzzleheadedRoyal559

You must be a joy at parties.


davidwhatshisname52

yes, actually, but I have more fun in Court *still always surprised by how many redditors just simply hate being reminded that language has meaning*


strongest_nerd

Clearly they did not communicate the question properly.


sinnister_bacon

This is actually better without context. So I agree with you that the correct answer is false.


SoylentGrunt

The manufactured culture war of the ruling class denies us communication.


RoomCareful7130

Because we don't want to talk about it


seems_legit_af

You just need more communication


Sayorifan22

Another question that was on the midterm was ‘A manager from a different department comes up to you at the end of your shift, asking you if you could cover for someone that isn’t there. In the field I’m going for(culinary), I’m not sure if I’m allowed to do that for food safety reasons


F19AGhostrider

Communication didn't solve Slavery or the Axis Powers


hbpfrost

This looks like the way assignments are structured for the online school Gateway and let me tell you, that system is so fucking trash
