TS SET Paper 1 Mock Test - 3 - TS TET MCQ

Action research is either research initiated to solve an immediate problem or a reflective process of progressive problem solving led by individuals working with others in teams or as part of a "community of practice" to improve the way they address issues and solve problems.

Both statements I and statement II are false.
Formula Used:
Speed 
Statement I:
Length of train = 300 m
Length of platform = 300 m
Total distance = 300 m + 300 m = 600 m
Time = 30 seconds

∴ Speed=  20m/seconds
Statement II:
The average speed is the total distance traveled by the object in a particular time interval.
Conclusion:
In statement I speed of the train is 20m/seconds but it is given 10m/seconds. So, it is an incorrect statement.
In statement II Average speed is (Total distance)/(Total time) but it is given the mean of speeds. So, it is an incorrect statement. 
The correct option is 2 i.e. Both statements I and statement II are false.

Number of females in City C = 23% of 9,00,000
Number of females in City E = 44% of 4,50,000
The ratio of number of females in City C and the number of females in City E
⇒ City C : City E = (23% × 9,00,000) : (44% × 4,50,000)
⇒ 23 : 22
∴ The respective ratio of the number of females in City C to the number of females in City E is 23 : 22.

Good 'research ethics' means assigning a particular research problem to one Ph.D./research student only. Avoiding wasteful and duplicative publication is one of the good research ethics.

As given in the passage,'...Although water covers approximately sixty seven percent of the Earth's surface, of this less than three percent is fresh water.

Research is defined as careful consideration of study regarding a particular concern or problem using scientific methods. Correct sequence of research steps include: Selection of topic, review of literature, data collection, interpretation of findings

Assertion A: A teacher should try to collect as much information about the learners’ characteristics as he/she can.

• A teacher should try to collect as much information about the learners’ characteristics as he/she can.
• Information needs to be collected about the previous knowledge, learning styles, cognitive styles, motivation and interests.
• A teacher should accept the fact that no two individuals are alike and thus cannot be treated in the same manner.

Thus, A is correct.

• Reason R: This helps in modifying instructions as per the needs of the students.
• In order to cater to the individual differences among learners and to avoid monotony, a variety of methods and media should be used by the teacher.
• This helps in modifying instructions as per the needs of the students.

​Thus, R is correct and R is the correct explanation of A.

Student 1 marks in History than in Geography = 0.65
= (65/100)
= (5/13)
Student 2 marks in history than in geography = 0.85
= (85/100)
= 17/20
Student 3 marks in history than in geography = 0.35
= (35/100)
= (7/20)
Student 4 marks in history than in geography = 1.25
= (125/100)
= 5/4
Student 5 marks in history than in geography = 1.40
= (140/100) = 7/5
Student 6 marks in history than in geography = 0.95
= (95/100)
= 19/20
Student 7 marks in history than in geography = 1.55
= (155/100)
= 31/20
∴  Number of students who got more marks in History than in Geography is 3.

Kolb's learning style is explained on the basis of two dimensions: they are how a person understands and processes the information. This perceived information is then classified as concrete experience or abstract conceptualization and processed information as active experimentation or reflective observation.

• Diverging: Individuals of this kind of learning style look at things from a different perspective. 
• Assimilating: People of this kind of learning style prefer good clear information, they can logically format the given information and explore analytic models. 
• Converging: Converging type of learners solve problems. They apply their learning to practical issues. Also, they prefer technical tasks, and they experiment with new ideas.
• Accommodating: Individuals with this kind of learning style prefer to do things practically. They are attracted to new challenges and solve problems intuitively. The learning characteristics are concrete experience and active experimentation.

Therefore, the cyclic order is Diverging ⇒ Assimilating ⇒ Converging ⇒ Accommodating.
