HP JBT TET Mock Test - 3 - HP TET MCQ

All the statements are correct. Black board is a primary teaching aid in a classroom. It makes the subject interesting for pupils. It also simplifies the tough topics and keeps the pace of the lecture moderate as it encourages writing while talking and hence making teaching effective.

The indicators of quality of teaching:

• Quality teaching is focused on student achievement (including social outcomes) and facilitates high standards of student outcomes for heterogeneous groups of students.
• Pedagogical practices enable classes and another learning grouping to work as caring, inclusive, and cohesive learning communities.
• Effective links are created between school and other cultural contexts in which students are socialized, to facilitate learning.
• Quality teaching is responsive to student learning processes.
• The opportunity to learn is effective and sufficient.
• Multiple task contexts support learning cycles.
• Curriculum goals, resources including ICT usage, task design, teaching, and school practices are effectively aligned.
• Pedagogy scaffolds and provides appropriate feedback on students’ task engagement.
• Pedagogy promotes learning orientations, student self-regulation, metacognitive strategies, and thoughtful student discourse.
• Teachers and students engage constructively in goal-orientated assessment.

Hence, learning outcomes and student achievements are the main indicators of the quality of teaching.

• Knowledge and qualification of the teacher is an indicator of the educational background of the teacher, not a reflection of the quality of teaching.
• A student's family background is not that effective for quality education.
• The active students are always interested to participate in all classroom activities. 

Development can be defined as a broad term that includes a series of qualitative and progressive changes. The development of human beings is divided into different stages such as Infancy, Early Childhood, Late Childhood, Adolescence, and Adulthood.

Key Points

• Adolescence is the stage of life that begins at the onset of puberty when sexual maturity or the ability to reproduce is attained.
• Puberty refers to the physical and sexual maturation of both boys and girls, the term adolescence also includes cognitive, social, and behavioral characteristics of this period.
• Adolescence is a phase of the life of a person when he is no more a child and not yet an adult. Life is full of tremendous energy. The curiosity and experimentation at one time pave the path to success and at other, may cause uncertainty.
• This is a critical time in life because the experiences, knowledge, and skills acquired in adolescence have important implications for adulthood.
• The word adolescence is derived from the Latin word “adolescere” meaning “to grow up” or “to mature.” It is a period of transition between childhood and adulthood that involves a number of changes in body and mind.

Thus, it is concluded that the stage of life that begins at the onset of puberty, when sexual maturity or the ability to reproduce is attained is commonly known as Adolescence.

Hint

• Infancy is the shortest of all developmental stages. From birth up to the two years of life, the stage is known as infancy. Babies grow very rapidly in size during these years. The acquisition of motor skills like holding things, crawling, walking proceeds from simple to complex.
• Early childhood as stated earlier is the period from 2 to 6 years of age. This period is sometimes referred to as the preschool period.
• Late childhood age starts between the age of 6 to 12 years, children look much taller and thinner. Children exhibit rapid gains in strength and swiftness. They achieve new motor skills and their competence becomes more pronounced in all areas of development.
• Adulthood: Strength and energy characterize this time of life from the middle twenties when most bodily functions are fully developed, until about the age of 50.

Tape recorder can be used as a teaching aid by primary class teachers to teach the sounds of birds and animals to the students, make them learn rhymes, or make them hear important historical speeches.

National Education Policy 2020 (ECCE)

The overarching goal will be to ensure universal access to high-quality ECCE across the country in a phased manner. Special attention and priority will be given to districts and locations that are particularly socio-economically disadvantaged.

Key Points

ECCE shall be delivered through a significantly expanded and strengthened system of early-childhood education institutions consisting of

• Standalone Anganwadis;
• Anganwadis co-located with primary schools;
• Pre-primary schools/sections covering at least age 3 to 6 years co-located with existing primary schools; and
• Stand-alone pre-schools - all of which would recruit workers/teachers specially trained in the curriculum and pedagogy of ECCE.

Hence, we can conclude that both statements are true.

The concept of education is used in a variety of contexts with different meanings and viewpoints. Different educationists have different beliefs and opinions with reference to the origin of the word 'education'.

• Education is a lifelong process that modifies the behavior and personality of individuals thus develops them as a whole by providing nourishing and burden-free environments.

Key Points

• Educational Objectives are general goals or targets to be achieved to form the base of a subject. An objective in teaching may better be defined as "the desired change in behavior in a person that we try to bring about through education".

Functions of educational objectives:

• help to make learning functional.
• help to achieve the learning outcome.
• provide the desired direction to educational activities.
• give unity and coherence to an educational program.
• help to structure the content of educational activities.
• help to organize specific topics or individual learning activities.

Hence, it is clear that 'sometimes creates burden and chaos in the curriculum' is not a function of educational objectives.

Key Points

Rotation of the earth:

• The Earth rotates on its own axis and it rotates in the eastward direction and in counter-clockwise in prograde motion.
• The rotation of the earth is the cause of the formation of day and night. 
• The direction of the earth’s rotation from west to east is as viewed from the north pole star Polaris.
• The earth rotates once in 24 hours.
• Since the rotation of the earth in the direction from west to east, the moon, sun, and all other celestial bodies appear to move from east to west.
• This is the reason for which we say the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

So the direction of the earth’s rotation is considered as from west to east.

The correct answer is World Bank.
