How will you arrange the groups of participants for the skill practice?

• A. In a line, with all of the manikin heads facing in the same direction
• B. In a circle
• C. In pairs
• D. In random clusters

Answer: (A)

Organizing practice to allow clear observation, consistent setup, and timely feedback is key. Lining participants up so everyone and each manikin head faces the same direction gives the instructor an unobstructed view of every student, makes it easy to move along the line and correct technique, and keeps spacing uniform so each person has equal access to the drill. This setup also ensures everyone is oriented the same way as in the demonstration, reducing confusion about steps or positioning. Circles can block visibility and make it harder for the instructor to monitor everyone. Pairs limit the instructor’s ability to check all participants at once. Random clusters can create safety concerns and inconsistent practice conditions.
