Question

Which one of the following could be a damaging way to handle stress discussions in class? (1)

Select the correct answer
Assisting learners to open up about their stressful situations

Asking learners in class about possible home circumstances that could be causing their stress

Privately helping learners to deal with stress and coping

Drawing up a code of conduct

Answer 1

Asking learners in class about possible home circumstances that could be causing their stress.

Reason: Publicly probing personal/home issues can breach privacy, cause embarrassment or stigma, retraumatize students, and discourage trust. Private, supportive approaches and clear boundaries (e.g., a code of conduct) are safer.
