![Page 11: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Tools to Active Listening
Probe
Steer
Summarize
Attend
![Page 12: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
OH-11
Probe
Why: To get more information
How: Ask open-ended questions to get more than a one-word response
“Why do you think that is happening?”“What do you suppose would happen if…”“How will you do that?”
![Page 13: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
OH-12
Steer
Why: To keep the interaction on track
How: Redirect the speaker with a statementExamples:I would like to get back to the problem you were talking about.
Let’s talk now about how you might be able to solve your problem
![Page 14: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
OH-14
Summarize To check your own understanding
Restate in your own words (paraphrase)& ask for confirmation
Do not “parrot back”
Capture the gist: Good Listeners ….summarize throughout the conversation, not just at the end
![Page 15: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
OH-15
AttendingWhat you do to show that you care and are paying attention to the speaker.
Examples:
Eye contact Alert posture Nodding
Saying “Uh huh” or “I see” Interested tone of voice
Be genuine in your behaviors don’t overdo and risk appearing phony
![Page 16: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Building on Ideas
The process of adding value to or enhancing another’s idea.
How?1. Acknowledge the connection to the
original idea.
2. Modify the idea to add value to it.
![Page 17: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Asking Questions
![Page 18: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Asking questions in an unbiased manner The key is to develop good questions that solicit
the participants’ honest response Avoid questions that “beg” or lead to an answer
they think you want to hear Biased question – Families in the community
need to know how to manage their money, don’t you think?
Unbiased question-What do you see as the needs of families in this community?
![Page 19: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Probes
Can you tell me more about that?
Would you give me an example of what you mean.
I don’t understand. Are there other points
of view?
![Page 20: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Pause
The pause is a technique that is designed to give participants an opportunity to silently reflect and compose their thoughts
Use with eye contact Use this technique periodically and don’t feel
compelled to “fill the silence” If you fill the silence, then participants won’t
have to think--and talk
![Page 21: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Getting Input From Participants
In an individual interview, use probes and the pause
For focus groups, use probes, the pause, inviting individual’s to respond, and the “let’s go around the group” questioning procedure
For issues forums, use probes, pause, and the “let’s see what others have to say” questioning procedure
![Page 22: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What are Your Strengths and Weaknesses Take turns interviewing the person beside you….
When you are the one talking…tell the listener your strengths and weaknesses as a facilitator
When you are the one listening…use active listening skills and questioning techniques---get as much information as you can about the person talking
![Page 23: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Dealing with Participants
![Page 24: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Facilitation of Groups Requires working with
people of different backgrounds
Requires working with people with different characteristics
Can be challenging
![Page 25: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Four Types of Participants The Expert
The Dominant Talker
The Shy Participant
The Rambler
![Page 26: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
A Facilitator
Must Skillfully Handle All Four Types
![Page 27: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The Expert In Interviews
Can take control of the discussion purpose/agenda
Summarize, steer, transition to next question
In Groups: Can inhibit others from participating Others defer to them---if perceived they have
more education or social or political influence Facilitator must always stress the
importance of hearing from all
![Page 28: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Dominant Talker Unaware of how others see them Sometimes consider themselves experts Facilitator/Interviewer Can Use Body
Language to Minimize Breaking eye contact Lightly touching the dominant talker
Facilitator Can Use Verbal Tactics Thank you Shelly, are there others who wish to
comment? That is one point of view, can we hear from
others.
![Page 29: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Shy Talkers Talks very little or not at all
Be comfortable with silence and the pause
Facilitator Can If known…seat them across from them and use
eye contact
If Eye Contact Fails Call the person by name and invite their
view
![Page 30: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Ramblers Uses a lot of words, never gets to the point Comfortable talking, can eat up a lot of discussion
time The Facilitator/Interview Can:
Break eye contact Look at other participants Look at papers Restate the question when the rambler pauses Invite others to talk Move to another question

Logistics
Schedule the event at a “neutral” location
Schedule the event at an appropriate time for participants

Recording Data
Tape record the proceedings and/or have an additional person take notes
If you tape record, allow resources and time for transcriptions
Use flip charts, where appropriate Avoid the notion of reaching consensus in
group settings—the purpose is to hear and record all participants’ perspectives
![Page 37: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Analysis of Results Consider group analysis Each member reads
notes/transcripts Look for themes, patterns, common
thinking Mark text with key words Meet as a group to discuss
![Page 39: VCE Situation Analysis](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815ccb550346895dcad7a7/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
