Transcript-analysis:
Person one mostly always says 'yes' which shows they are simply following instructions and not clarifying any by asking questions for more information. Perhaps if they asked questions the task would have gone better and we would have had a more similar drawings to each other, as instead of just drawing, we could ask for more information or for instructions to be said in a different way so we can understand them better. Person 2 mostly always starts their sentences with 'there is a...' or 'and then...' which shows clarity and confidence in their instructions. This could have given person 2 a sense of safety and also confidence, as if the person giving the instructions said a lot of 'ums' and 'kind of' it doesn't have a sense of accuracy as they are doubting themselves. It also isn't a definite sentence if it starts with 'maybe' and 'kind of' because it isn't exactly right, it is only maybe, or kind of right.
But their sentences structures show a sense of flowing to the transcript, there are long gaps and person 1 always says 'yes' after an instruction is given, showing good communication and flowing dialogue between the two, as well as patience. But also a hint of bluntness and possibly shyness, which could hinder the task as one person may not have the confidence to question the other person if they think something wasn't done to the best standard or correctly.
