As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. "Recognize the difficulty in listening and retelling another person's story. 2. Identify why there may be a difference in what we hear and what was said. 3. Describe ways personal projections and interpretations of the listener can affect meaning/intention of the speakers" (Stringer & Cassiday, 2009, p. 55).
