UP TET Paper 1 Mock Test - 10 - UPTET MCQ

The three methods most commonly used by Developmental Psychologists to study children are 
i) Cross sectional studies: Comparisons are made of the behaviour or abilities of two or more different groups of children, with each group covering a different age range.
ii) Longitudinal studies:  a group of children is followed up across time, this could be a relatively short period of several months, or in some cases for decades
iii) Case Studies: one or a very small number of children are seen regularly over a period of time. The time period is variable but usually is six months or more in length. 
These all come under comparative methods.

The psychologist Robert Sternberg propounded the 'successful intelligence' theory. Intrapersonal intelligence is associated with the ability to understand one's feelings and thoughts.

बच्चों के भाषा-विकास की क्रमिक प्रगति का रिकॉर्ड रखने में "लिखित परीक्षा की उत्तर-पुस्तिकाएँ" सर्वाधिक सहायक हैं।  प्रत्येक वर्ष जब बच्चों की परीक्षाएँ ली जाती हैं तो उनके रिकॉर्ड रखे जाते हैं एवं उनकी प्रगति देखी जाती है। 
बच्चे अक्सर उतार-चढ़ाव के साथ पढ़ते हैं, अतः उन्हें अवगत करवाना कि किस प्रकार से वे प्रगति कर रहे हैं, इसमें लिखित परीक्षाओं की उत्तर-पुस्तिकाएँ सही साबित हो सकती हैं। 
अत: यह विकल्प सही उत्तर है। 

समेकित अधिगम से तात्पर्य है: 'ऐसी शिक्षा जो इस प्रकार से संगठित हो कि उसमें विषयो की सीमा रेखा न हो, अध्ययन के मुख्य क्षेत्रों को केन्द्रित कर, पाठ्यक्रम के विभिन्‍न भागों/क्षेत्रों को सार्थक रूप से संगठित किया गया हो। इसमें अधिगम तथा शिक्षण को एक रूप में देखा जाता है और यह अन्तःक्रिया वाले वास्तविक जगत का प्रदर्शन करता है। 
अतः निष्कर्ष निकलता है कि कक्षा पाँच की विज्ञान तथा भाषा शिक्षिका मिलकर फूल पर एक पाठयोजना बनाती है, जिसमें पौधों की विभिन्न विशेषताओं के साथ फूल की सुन्दरता का समावेश किया है। यह समेकित अधिगम का उदाहरण है।

सीखने की विधियों में से 'वर्कशॉप विधि' सामूहिक विधि नहीं है। इस विधि में मात्र दो लोगों की उपस्थिति भी पर्याप्त है | इसमें एक प्रशिक्षक एवं दूसरा प्रशिक्षु होता है | इस विधि में कार्य को प्रयोगात्मक रूप में किया जाता है | अन्य विधियों पर अगर विचार करें तो उनमें वाद-विवाद विधि में अत्यधिक  सीखने को मिलता है। 
अतः, यही विकल्प इस प्रश्न का सही उत्तर है।

प्रत्यय वे शब्द हैं जो दूसरे शब्दों के अन्त में जुड़कर, अपनी प्रकृति के अनुसार, शब्द के अर्थ में परिवर्तन कर देते हैं । 'इक' शब्द का प्रतयय सांस्कृतिक हैं ।

भाषा शिक्षण के चार प्रमुख कौशल होते हैं – गृहणात्मक कौशल : श्रवण (सुनना), पठन (पढ़ना) अभिव्यक्तात्मक कौशल : वाचन (बोलना), लेखन (लिखना)। 

• अभिव्यक्तात्मक कौशल का अर्थ है, अपने भावों तथा विचारों की अभिव्यक्ति। अपे विचारों को हम मौखिक अथवा लिखित रूप में व्यक्त कर सकते हैं।
• सुनकर लिखना या देखकर लिखना विचारों की अभिव्यक्ति नहीं है।
• अभिव्यक्ति के लिए स्वयं के मौलिक विचार महत्व रखते हैं।
• किसी अन्य की रटी-रटायी भाषा को दोहराना भी अभिव्यक्तात्मक कौशल नहीं है।
• इसके अन्तर्गत हम दूसरों के विचारों को उजागर कर रहे होते हैं।
• दूसरों के विचारों का विश्लेषण या आलोचनात्मक वर्णन अभिव्यक्तात्मक कौशल के अन्तर्गत आता है।

अतः निष्कर्ष निकलता है कि घटना वर्णन अभिव्यक्तात्मक कौशल का उदाहरण है

अभिव्यक्ति की स्वतंत्रता को प्रेस की स्वतंत्रता कहा जाता है।
सन्दर्भ पंक्ति - विभिन्न एलेक्ट्रॉनिक माध्यमों सहित परम्परागत रूप से प्रकाशित अखबारों को प्रदत्त अभिव्यक्ति की स्वतंत्रता को प्रेस की स्वतंत्रता कहा जाता है।
मीडिया क्या है? - 

• सामान्य रूप से, “मीडिया” संचार के विभिन्न साधनों को संदर्भित करता है। उदाहरण के लिए, टेलीविजन, रेडियो और समाचार पत्र मीडिया के विभिन्न प्रकार हैं। इस शब्द को प्रेस या समाचार रिपोर्टिंग एजेंसियों के लिए सामूहिक संज्ञा के रूप में भी इस्तेमाल किया जा सकता है। कंप्यूटर दुनिया में, “मीडिया” को सामूहिक संज्ञा के रूप में भी प्रयोग किया जाता है, लेकिन विभिन्न प्रकार के डेटा स्टोरेज विकल्पों को संदर्भित करता है।

Learning to speak does not include culturally bound speaking events because everyone has the right to speech and they are not bounded by any cultural event. So, learning to speak is free from any cultural event.

Phonics is a method of teaching reading and writing any language by developing a learner's ability to hear and by associating the character's identity with different sounds. For example, it is a method used to teach reading by learning the sounds that groups of letters make when spoken. Hence, the correct answer is Phonics.

Let's see the meanings of all the words:

• Fierce: marked by extreme intensity of emotions or convictions; inclined to react violently
• Gentle: having or showing a mild, kind, or tender temperament or character
• Tame: (of an animal) not dangerous or frightened of people; domesticated
• Wild: living in a state of nature and not ordinarily tame or domesticated
• Ugly: unpleasant or repulsive, especially in appearance

As per the above stated meanings, it can be concluded that wild is similar in meaning to fierce.

The poet is telling that one day all the proud emperors or kings or queens will die and their dead remains would be mixed with the other dead people's ashes that were forgotten.
Here, "mingle with forgotten ashes" refers to the remains of common people who died in a war and are forgotten, and the same way when death will call emperors they will too be forgotten one day.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Dead persons'.

Transparencies are simple, inexpensive and easy to use as compared to cassettes, slides and compact discs. Transparencies are acetate or plastic sheets, normally about letter size (A4), on which you can write your information. The transparency is then used with an overhead projector to show the written material on a screen or wall.

Mahatma Gandhi proved that only leadership by example can gain the trust of the people so that they are willing to make sacrifices to a large cause. Mahatma Gandhi's leadership role was extremely complex. Knowing that violence only begets violence, he began practising passive resistance, Satyagraha. Mahatma Gandhi was a leader that brought one of the world's most powerful nations to its knees by using peace, love and integrity as his method for change.

Scope of connecting knowledge to life outside the school: 

• Market: Most of the students might have gone to a market with their parents. They must have observed and participated in the way of buying and selling of goods and also the approach of the buyer and seller. You should take the advantage of real situations and utilizing the experience of the students in the calculation of profit & loss, preparation of bills, process of weighting, counting of money, amount and price etc.
• Real-life: A frog climbs 30 meters on a pole in a day and slides back 20 meters in a night. If the pole is 70 meters high, then how many days the frog will take to climb to the top of the pole? Most of our students of upper primary classes may calculate the answer as 7. One student told the answer is 5 as the frog climbs 40 meters in 4 days and in the fifth day it reached on the top i.e. 70 meters. Students get opportunities to work in a natural setting, they work according to their own perceptions. So their real-life experience must take into consideration.
• Garden: Students prepare plots in home, schools and also in playing with peers. During that time they may not know counting, measurement, construction of angles, different types of geometrical figures, areas, different lines, average etc. but they may do it using their perception. You may share the experience of the students in these activities and it will be amazing to find out that they have already acquired a lot of mathematical concepts which requires slight refinement for acquiring formal knowledge and understanding of the concepts.  
• Making designs: Students covered their notebooks, paint pictures, decorate their houses, plants trees in garden, design their playing kits etc. Teacher must observe the process of making design and utilized it in the classroom.
• Festival: We celebrate many festivals in our homes as well as in our schools. Students heartily involved on the Independence day, Republic day, Teacher’s day, Children’s day, Saraswati puja, Ganesh puja, Id, Christmas etc. They involve themselves in different activities to make these special occasions memorable. They go to the market to buy various materials, decorate the school, distribute sweets, calculate expenditure etc. at that time they also learn mathematics.
• Playground: Students are playing Kabaddi, football, cricket, volleyball, basketball and also many indoor games. They frame their rules of their own, prepare playground in a group. Students construct Circles, Rectangles, Squares, triangles etc. In their playground without knowing the rules of construction. They count individual and group scores through their own strategies.

Hence, we conclude that both statements are examples that can help the students in connecting their knowledge with the life outside the school.

B. F. Skinner propounded the theory of Operant Conditioning.

The concept of areas of plane figures can be introduced to the students of Class V by measuring the area of any figure with the help of different objects like palm, leaf, pencil etc.

Multidisciplinary is something that combines many fields. For a Class IV student, if a teacher has given to draw the flag of India and identify the number of lines of symmetry in the flag, then this student must aware of the design, colors and symbol in the flag of India and also should be aware of the concept of symmetry to find the number of lines in symmetry in the flag. Thus, it is referred as a Multidisciplinary Problem.
Hence, the correct answer is, 'Draw the flag of India and identify the number of lines of symmetry in the flag.'

The synthesis method in teaching is an approach that encourages students to combine various pieces of information to form a new concept, or to draw new conclusions.

The capital of Himachal Pradesh (Shimla) and the capital of Madhya Pradesh (Bhopal) are located in North and South with respect to the location of Delhi on the map of India.
Hence, the correct answer is North and South.

Environmental studies (EVS) at the primary level seek to expose kids to the actual situations in their surroundings so they may relate to, become aware of, understand, and become sensitive to the present environmental issues (natural, physical, social, and cultural).

Misconceptions refer to a wrong or inaccurate idea that takes place due to the mismatch in previously assimilated and newly accommodated knowledge. 
Student’s misconceptions:

• are a significant step in the teaching-learning process.
• are necessary for the learning process to give insight into children's thinking.
• help the teacher to be aware of learners' learning styles, to cater for them according to their needs.

In the above situation, the teacher instructed all the students of EVS class to study the difference between climate and weather separately in the school compound. The reason for this could be the eradication of misconception because they are relatively the same (explained below).

The Chipko movement is also known as Chipko Andolan was a forest conservation movement in India. It was started in the 1970s in Uttarakhand, then a part of Uttar Pradesh (at the foothills of Himalayas) by Sundar Lal Bahuguna. It went on to become a rallying point for many future environmental movements all over the world.
It created a precedent for starting nonviolent protests in India, such as to hamper the rapid deforestation, expose vested interests, increase social awareness and therefore the got to save trees.
Hence, the correct answer is, 'Sunder Lal Bahuguna.'

The teacher has to play a role of a facilitator in teaching EVS at the primary level as his role is to create such an atmosphere of learning where the children can themselves realize their true potential and can construct knowledge.

• A teacher is one who plays diverse roles like an innovator, action researcher, planner, manager, content provider, facilitator, leader, co-creator, etc.​

If an assignment is made challenging and exciting, it teaches many positive features among the students. It helps the students in dealing with extreme pressure and even failure at many points. A good home assignment may include such tasks in which the students are required to target a particular section of society and work to better that section. For example, if the students are given a home assignment to form a group and visit a slum nearby to educate small children every day for an hour. 
Hence, the correct answer is "Challenges and excitement for extended learning".

CCE refers to a school-based evaluation, which covers all aspects of school activities related to a child’s development. It emphasizes two-fold objectives such as continuity of evaluation and assessment of learning outcomes in a comprehensive manner.
The term ‘continuous’ refers to regularity in assessment. The development of a child is a continuous process. Therefore, students’ development should be assessed continuously.
In the above-mentioned situation, the purpose of conducting continuous evaluation by Akash in the classroom includes:

• Continuous evaluation is formative in nature and is school-based. It is to be carried out by teachers teaching a particular class.
• The purpose of continuous evaluation is mainly improvement in learning. For this, the learning gaps and weaknesses are diagnosed so that feedback can be provided.
• Continuous evaluation is informally carried out in the classroom; there is no need of making lengthy arrangements required for a formal examination like preparation and administration of question papers, seating arrangement, etc.
• Multiple techniques of evaluation need to be used for continuous evaluation. These include not only written tests but oral tests, quizzes, assignments, projects, observation, peer evaluation, self-appraisal, etc.

Hence, it could be concluded that diagnosing the learning gaps and weaknesses so that feedback can be provided is the purpose of conducting continuous evaluation by Akash in the classroom.

The objective of teaching EVS at the primary level is not limited just to equip the students with terms and definitions for assessment purpose only.
The objectives of environmental education are to increase public awareness about an environmental issue.
The main objectives of environmental education are as follow.

• The common duty of maintaining, protecting and improving the quality of the environment.
• It helps in engaging in exploratory and hands-on activities that lead to the development of cognitive and psychomotor skills.
• It provides the way in which each individual can contribute to the protection of the environment.
• It provides opportunities to acquire the knowledge, values, attitudes, commitment and skills needed to protect and improve the environment.
• It encourages pupils to examine and interpret the environment from a variety of perspectives.
• It helps to arouse pupil’s awareness and curiosity about the environment.
• It plays an important role to minimize population growth.
• It helps to develop national integrity among students.

Hence, we conclude that to load learners with terms and definitions for assessment is not an objective of teaching EVS at the primary level.

The ecological effect of the coal industries incorporates issues, for example, land use, waste administration, water and air contamination, brought about by the coal mining, handling and utilization of its items. Notwithstanding air contamination, coal blazingin thermal power plants produces a huge amount of strong waste items every year, including fly ash.

Assessment is the process of defining, selecting, designing, collecting, analyzing, interpreting, and using the information to increase students' learning and development.

The lithosphere of the earth causes of crust and outer mantle. This is the place where we find the soil which enables the growth of most of the plants and also the climatic conditions are suitable. The atmosphere is a layer of sir that surrounds our Earth and it is retained by the gravity. The hydrosphere is a layer of water on the earth's surface, it consists of all the water bodies present on Earth.  Mesosphere is a layer of the atmosphere, present between the Stratosphere and the Thermosphere. The temperature in this layer decreases with an increase in altitude. 
Hence, the correct answer is "Lithosphere".
