Lesson Review
21st Century Skills: Critical Thinking &
Professionalism
Critical Thinking
How to “read” yourself and others:
Self-assessment of your soft skills (feedback from site supervisors to follow)
Non-verbal communication
Professionalism
What to do and what to avoid:
Using the correct language to talk about race/ethnicity, biological sex/gender
Avoiding common spoken and written grammar mistakes
Professional Evaluations
Tone and Passive Aggressive Communication
Definition: ToneTone is the attitude of the speaker and it creates a particular impression or mood. The tone can be different than the actual words a person uses, so again you have to be a good “reader” of others and yourself.
Words to describe “tone”: formal, informal, serious, playful, ironic, angry, egotistical, upbeat, whiny, etc.

Passive Aggressive Communication
How to identify and avoid it!
Definition: P-A Communication
Passive aggressive communication is used to express anger, frustration, stress, or unsettled feelings INDIRECTLY so the speaker does not have to take responsibility for those feelings but can deflect them on others.
Paying attention to a person’s tone and non verbal communication can help identify passive aggressive behavior (or help notice it in yourself).
Major types of P-A Communication: Denial, Blaming, Revenge Seeking, Controlling, Guilting, Sarcasm, Back Stabbing.
Avoiding P-A: Professional Evaluations
Use evaluations to develop your professional skills
Acknowledge what you have done well
Address what needs to be improved
Allows both employer and employee (or intern) to communicate equally
Using a script helps reduce the chance of P-A communication
Praise can be given to the individual, but critiques should directly relate to tasks not personal criticisms
