The Collaborative Task is the second part of Trinity ISE - Speaking and Listening Module.
Here there are some useful information and sentences to help students to prepare for this part. The following document contains some sample prompts for the Collaborative task in ISE II and ISE III. Please note these are example prompts and will not be used in a real examination, but it can be useful as samples for candidates that are preparing this exam.
Emotions contain information; in order to understand other people’s feelings, we have to start by learning to understand ourselves, our needs and desires, what things, people and situations make us feel particular emotions, what thoughts generate those emotions, how they affect us and what consequences and reactions they trigger. This ability makes it possible to answer questions such as: Why do I feel happy? How will my friend feel if I tell them that? What will happen if I say that to a certain person?
If we understand and identify our own feelings, it will be easier for us to connect with our fellow people’s feelings.
¿How is this ability used? Empathising, which means, putting ourselves in another person’s place and being aware of their feelings, their reasons and personal implications, that is, we have to “put ourselves in someone else’s shoes”.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.
