You are in a planning meeting for your Unit 4 oral presentation. You are presenting on a vocational topic you are interested in: introducing a “phone-free first 10 minutes” routine at the start of team meetings during work placement to improve focus and reduce misunderstandings.
In the meeting, your teacher and two classmates are discussing your idea. One classmate has concerns about emergencies and another wants to know how the routine would be introduced fairly. You want the discussion to be respectful and productive, using correct discussion conventions.
Identify one discussion convention that helps ensure everyone has a chance to contribute.

In Unit 4 of VM Literacy students work through the areas of study 'Understanding and engaging with literacy for advocacy' and 'Speaking to advise or to advocate'.
In this area of study students will use their knowledge and understanding of language, context and audience to complete an oral presentation that showcases their learning. The presentation needs to be developed in consultation with the teacher and should focus on an area of student interest with a clearly stated vocational or personal focus. Students are encouraged to connect this area of study to their learning in Unit 4 of either Work Related Skills or Personal Development Skills. If students are not undertaking either of these studies, they may select an option from either of the two outlined below: Literacy for civic participation or Literacy for everyday contexts. On completion of this unit the student should be able to negotiate the topic of choice for, and complete, an oral presentation that showcases reflections and evaluations of student learning.
