a. Implementerb. Plannerc. Innovatord. Relater

Answer 1

In using the methods described, Melissa is primarily demonstrating her skill as an innovator. The correct answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

I chose this option because, although it is true that this shows that Melissa is also a good implementer, this primarily demonstrates that she is an innovator. In this case, she created a new method, she thinks it is good for the students to learn how to observe other's work and, at the same time, learn how to receive and accept other’s opinions on our own work, taking it as a constructive critique. She also does it herself, and this is a novelty as well, she practices what she preaches because she clearly believes in this method. This method is totally new, it is not common in the teaching process and that is mainly why she is demonstrating her skills as an innovator.
