Nonverbal Communication

Spring 2020

Watch the short video and think about the following: 1. What do you think the girl is thinking when the boy is mean to the robot? 2. How does the robot feel? How do you know? 3. How does the boy feel at the very end and how does he fix the situation? 4. Does the robot forgive him? How do you know?
