Bailey has been working with the same study group for a long time. She likes the people in her study group, and they all seem to get along during their meetings. She has noticed that often the peers in her group will choose to work together on team projects, and she is not invited into those teams. She would like to work to change their perceptions about her; however, she is not sure what their mind-sets are. What is Bailey's best course of action to solve her dilemma?

A. Bailey should first determine what her group's perception of her is. The best way to do this would be to develop a survey for her group members to complete anonymously. She should then develop goals and a plan to win over the group based on their constructive feedback.
B. Bailey should first determine what her group's perception of her is. The best way to do this would be to approach a study group member she feels is her greatest ally. She should ask this person for some feedback on her role in the group. She should then develop goals and a plan of action to correct any negative feedback.
C. Bailey should first determine what her group's perception of her is. The best way to do this is to maintain a positive attitude, and to determine what she knows about herself and what she does not know. She should then use reasoning skills to determine the group members' possible perceptions. She should then develop goals and a plan of action to win over their trust, evaluating that plan as her approaches are successful or not successful.
D. Bailey should first determine what her group's perception of her is. The best way to do this would be to solicit specific feedback from the group on her role and contributions. She should then develop goals and a plan to win over the group based on their constructive feedback.
