Trust is one of the most critical
components to achieving student buy-in because trust is crucial to
promoting risk-taking behaviors. For example, trust allows students to
feel comfortable asking questions. The instructor can build trust by using
non-evaluative language and by showing respect for students’ questions and
answers.
