(24) Listening and Speaking/Listening. Students will use comprehension skills to listen attentively to others in formal and informal settings. Students will continue to apply earlier standards with greater complexity. Students are expected to:

  • (A) listen responsively to a speaker by taking notes that summarize, synthesize, or highlight the speaker's ideas for critical reflection and by asking questions related to the content for clarification and elaboration;
  • (B) follow and give complex oral instructions to perform specific tasks, answer questions, solve problems, and complete processes; and
  • (C) evaluate how the style and structure of a speech support or undermine its purpose or meaning.
