Intelligence involves a number of abilities together. It is the ability to understand the incoming information and make sense of it. It is the ability to acquire new skills and use the existing knowledge to complete a task or deal with a situation. 

Lev Vygotsky states that the child’s mental strength grows when assisted by a more advanced and competent individual.

Student-centred learning, also known as learner-centred education, broadly encompasses methods of teaching that shift the focus of instruction from the teacher to the student. Question-answer method is based on teacher's own discretion and does not put learner first.

Constructivism is centered on the idea that human knowledge and learning are actively constructed by the teacher, not passively received from the environment. It is based on the theory of constructivism which holds that learning always builds upon the knowledge that a student already has.

Classroom Discussions play a vital role in shaping or constructing the overall personality of a child. The discussions help the child to not only presents his or her point of view but to get an idea of other's perception as well and this helps in shaping the all-round thinking of a child.
Gender Bias:

• It refers to the belief that someone prioritizes one gender more than another. 
• It is a form of unconscious bias, or implicit bias, which occurs when one individual attributes certain attitudes and stereotypes to another person or group of people.
• It is a preference or prejudice toward one gender over the other for example preferring boys over girls during an activity. Bias can be conscious or unconscious and may manifest in many ways, both subtle and obvious.

Examples of Gender Bias in Teaching and at school:

• Stereotypical expressions of male and female characters in textbook content.
• Assigning work differentially to boys and girls.
• Girls being given lesser opportunities to participate in school and classroom events.

Gender Constancy: The concept of gender constancy refers to a cognitive stage of development of children at which they come to understand that their gender (meaning their biological sex) is fixed and cannot change over time.
Gender Relevance: It is an important consideration in development. It is a way of looking at how social norms and power structures impact on the lives and opportunities available to different groups of men and women.
Gender Identity: It is a personal conception of oneself as male or female. This concept is intimately related to the concept of gender role, which is defined as the outward manifestations of personality that reflect gender identity.
So, during a classroom discussion if a teacher pays more attention to boys than girls then it will be regarded as an example of Gender Bias.

Right to Education Act (RTE) is an act of the Parliament of India enacted on 4th August, 2009, which describes the modalities of the importance of free and compulsory education for children between 6 and 14 in India under Article 21A of the Indian Constitution.
After the implementation of RTE Act 2009, the classrooms are age-wise more homogeneous.

In a culturally and linguistically diverse classroom, before deciding whether a student comes under special education category, a teacher should evaluate student on his/her mother language to establish disability.

Learning disability refers to a neurological disorder that causes cognitive impairment. Dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, etc are the most common learning disability.
Learning disability:

• Learning disability is intrinsic and due to central nervous system dysfunction.
• It is a variable state which can be addressed by appropriate comprehensible input.
• It can't be attributed to cultural deprivation as it can present in children of any culture.

Intelligence is a key construct employed to know how individuals differ from one another. It also provides an understanding of how people adapt their behaviour according to the environment they live in. Intelligence as the ability to judge well, understand well, and reason well.

Listening comprehension concentrates on helping learners cope with transactional language, but it is equally important to give students the chance to recognize and use features of the interactional language.
While teaching listening comprehension, you as a teacher will have to provide passages mid-activities that can help students with such aspects as recognizing the speaker's emotional attitude or the relationship between the speakers. Not only what is said, but how it is said is important to get a correct understanding of the social situation.
Retelling, a method of evaluation is the best method for evaluating listening comprehension. It requires listeners to summarize a story or an article from their own perception.
Students may be asked to retell a story in their own words in which they will explain the story and its characters from their point of view.
Retelling on fluency probes to ensure that children are reading for meaning and not speed and also, it will help a teacher to know if they were listening carefully or not and to which extent they are able to grasp the content while listening.

The correct answer is Both A and B are true.
The answer can be decided by looking at the lines given in the second and last paragraph of the passage: 
​"Bobby and Harry Jones and Dickie Delacroix—the villagers pronounced this name “Dellacroy”—eventually made a great pile of stones in one corner of the square and guarded it against the raids of the other boys."
"Bobby Martin ducked under his mother’s grasping hand and ran, laughing, back to the pile of stones."
​From the above lines, it is clear that both statements A and B are correct.

Principle of Language Teaching: To achieve the desired goals in English language teaching, a teacher uses the various principles. Each of them is listed below along with their characteristics:

a² - 3a + 1 = 0
Dividing both sides by 'a', we get
a - 3 + (1/a) = 0
or, a + (1/a) = 3

The exhaustible natural resources are limited in nature and can be exhausted by different human activities. For example, soil is replaceable, but it takes so long to create new soil that some experts classify it as an exhaustible resource. Coal is a non-renewable resource.

Given:
32400 = 2^p × 3^q × 5^r
Concept:
"Prime Factorization" is the finding which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number.
Calculation:
32400 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5
32400 = 2⁴ × 3⁴ × 5²
Now comparing 2⁴ × 3⁴ × 5² with 2^p × 3^q × 5^r
We get, p = 4, q = 4 and r = 2
⇒ 2pq + 3qr = 2 × 4 × 4 + 3 × 4 × 2
∴ 2pq + 3qr = 32 + 24 = 56

Friction: The property of a surface that opposes the relative motion between two surfaces is called friction.

Friction (f) = μ N
where μ is the coefficient of friction and N is the normal force.

The best remedial strategy to remove errors in his writing is providing him with a worksheet with partially solved problems to complete the missing gaps.

Joseph Schwab and James B. Conant were the first (in recent times) to advocate the inclusion of the philosophy of Science into Science curricula as substantive and syntactic knowledge.

Given:
Length of the room = 13 m
The breadth of the room = 12 m 
The height of the room = 15 m
The cost of whitewashing = 9 per m²
Formula used:
Area of four wall = 2 (l + b) × h
Calculation:
Area of four wall = 2 (13 + 12) × 15
⇒ 2 × 25 × 15
⇒ 750 m²
The cost of whitewashing the four walls of the room = 750 × 9 
⇒ 6750 
∴ The cost of whitewashing the four walls of the room is Rs. 6750

Teaching method: Different teaching methods are used by teachers as per the requirements of students. For choosing the one, the teacher may classify students based on their abilities (ability grouping) or he can choose it based on the compatibility of the topic.

• To connect Mathematics with real life, field trip, survey, and projects are more helpful. By involving students actively in learning interesting Mathematics, they will be more successful than more conventional courses in promoting a positive attitude toward Mathematics. 

Given:
The ratio of two numbers is 5 ∶ 6
The product of their HCF and LCM is 270
Formula used:
Product of two numbers = HCF × LCM
Calculation:
Let the numbers be 5x and 6x
Product of them = 5x × 6x = 30x²
⇒ 30x² = 270
⇒ x² = 9
⇒ x = 3
Now, the sum of them = (5x + 6x) = 11x
After putting the value of x
⇒ 11 × 3
⇒ 33
∴ The sum of the two numbers is 33

1 is not the smallest prime number.-- 2 is the smallest prime number.
The Sum of two prime numbers is always a prime number. -- Take an example to understand it better. Two prime numbers are 5+7=12. 12 is not a prime number.
There is no even prime number. -- 2 is even prime number.
A composite number can be odd. -- Yes, a composite number can be odd. Composite numbers are numbers with more than two factors. The smallest odd composite number is 9.
