TS TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 3 (Science and Mathematics) - TS TET MCQ

The stage of creative problem solving in which the individuals do not give attention to the problem is incubation.
Graham Wallas (1926) outlined the creative thinking process into four stages:

• Preparation: It involves collecting information regarding a problem in order to solve it through trial and error, recalling personal experiences, and investigating in all possible directions.
• Incubation: It is a slow process in which the individual sinks into the unconscious and reflects on the problem. In this stage, individuals forget irrelevant information or unsuccessful attempts and engage with the task effectively.
• Illumination: It is the stage the individual is most active and conscious. It is in this stage that an insight to the problem is experienced suddenly and a new idea or solution emerges.
• Verification: This stage might involve modifications to the solution reached in the previous stage by adding or subtracting, or making new connections. The final solution achieved is tested in reality. If the solution does not apply to the problem then the whole process is repeated.

According to the question girl’s parents are sportspersons and she obtained training from coaching. Both of her parents are sportspersons. So, we can say that her capabilities depend on heredity and the environment.

• The individual’s personality is the product of both heredity and environment.
• Heredity determines a child's potential, while the Environment influences the extent to which that potential is achieved.

Role of Heredity and Environment:

So, from the points, as mentioned above, it becomes clear that the girl's capabilities are most likely to be the result of an interaction between heredity and the environment.

Children in Pre-operational stage have symbolic thinking but do not realize that actions can be reversed and their judgments are based on the immediate appearance of things. 
Cognitive development involves cognitive processes such as knowing, thinking, remembering, recognizing, categorizing, imagining, reasoning, decision-making, and so forth. Cognitive development proceeds as children mature. Piaget divided cognitive development into four stages.

• Sensorimotor (Birth – 2 years) & Preoperational (2-7 years)
• Concrete Operational (7-11 years) & Formal Operational (11 years and above)

​The Pre-operational Stage: This is the second stage of cognitive development which is basically a pre-logical stage as logic has not yet fully developed. It extends from two to seven years of age. They begin to think symbolically. During the Symbolic play, children can create mental images of objects and store them in their minds for later use. For example, such a child can draw a picture of or pretend to play with a puppy that is no longer present there.

Teachers interacting more with boys than girls is an example of gender bias in teaching.
Gender refers to the socially and culturally constructed system that attributes meaning to what it means to be a male or a female in a particular society.
Gender bias in teaching leads to differential learning experiences, even though the girls and boys of a class sit in the same classroom and attended by the same teacher.

• It refers to the belief when someone prioritize one gender more than the other one.
• The result of the research studies about teachers interacting more with boys than girls is an example of gender bias in teaching.

Learning is a relatively permanent change in personality (including cognitive, affective, attitudinal, motivational, behavioral, and experiential) and reflects a change in performance usually brought about by practice although it may arise from insight or other factors, including memory.

Freud believed that unconscious sexual conflicts rooted in childhood experiences cause most personality disturbances. According to him, early years shape the personality of a person.

If a child fails to perform well in the class test leads us to believe that there is a need to reflect upon the syllabus, pedagogy and assessment processes.
The failure of a child is also the failure of the syllabus pedagogy and assessment. So we need to reflect upon all these points before making any judgment about the students. 
To avoid failure or to tackle it when it looks likely, both parents and teachers must get involved. They can do this by involvement of parents, skill development, increase in the motivation.

उपर्युक्त गद्यांश के अनुसार सही सूचना से उपभोक्ता को किसी भी उत्पाद को खरीदने के लिए उचित निर्णय लेने में मदद मिलती है।
गद्यांश से

• "सही सूचना से उपभोक्ता को किसी भी उत्पाद को खरीदने के लिए उचित निर्णय लेने में मदद मिलती है। किसी भी उत्पाद के पैक पर खुदरा मूल्य लिखना भी अनिवार्य होता है।"

• उपर्युक्त पद्यांश के अनुसार अंधकार के सिमट कर बैठे होने का कारण "अभी सूर्यास्त नहीं हुआ है।"
• उपर्युक्त पद्यांश में कवि ने अंधकार  को इस तरीके से सिमटता हुआ बताया है जैसे भेड़ों का झुंड एक तरफ सिमट जाता है।

मूल वाक्य पैटर्न में वर्तमान भाषा:

• वर्तमान, और छात्रों की यादें, दिन-प्रति-दिन बातचीत में उपयोग किए जाने वाले मूल वाक्य पैटर्न हैं। छोटे-छोटे उच्चारणों से छात्र आसानी से लंबे वाक्यों को आगे बढ़ा सकते हैं।
• मातृभाषा सीखने के मामले में, छात्र की स्मृति अवधि विदेशी भाषा की तुलना में अधिक लंबे वाक्यों को बरकरार रख सकती है।
• इस प्रकार एक विदेशी भाषा में प्राप्त सुविधा शिक्षार्थियों को ध्वनियों और शब्दावली वस्तुओं के संबंध में भाषा सामग्री की समझ का विस्तार करने में सक्षम बनाती है।

इसलिए, हम यह निष्कर्ष निकाल सकते हैं कि दूसरी भाषा के 'मूल वाक्य पैटर्न में वर्तमान भाषा' सिद्धांत को उपर्युक्त कथन से जोड़ा जा सकता है।

वाइगोत्स्की के अनुसार भाषा सीखने, शब्दों को अर्थ देने में सामाजिक अंत:क्रिया की भूमिका को नकारा नहीं जा सकता है। रूसी मनोवैज्ञानिक 'वाइगोत्स्की' ने अपने 'सामाजिक-सांस्कृतिक सिद्धांत' में भाषा विकास के सामाजिक-सांस्कृतिक परिप्रेक्ष्य को प्रस्तुत किया था। इन्होंने भाषा विकास के सन्दर्भ में "सामाजिक अतःक्रिया" पर बल दिया है।

• वाइगोत्स्की के अनुसार ज्ञान का परिवर्तनशील भंडार दूसरों के साथ मिलकर तैयार किया जाता है अर्थात् भाषा सीखने मे सामाजिक अन्तःक्रिया का महत्वपूर्ण स्थान है। वाइगोत्स्की द्वारा दिये गये सिद्धान्त को संज्ञानात्मक विकास या सांस्कृतिक-एतिहासिक मनोविज्ञान कहा जाता है।

अतः निष्कर्ष निकलता है कि वाइगोत्स्की के अनुसार भाषा सीखने, शब्दों को अर्थ देने में सामाजिक अंतःक्रिया का भूमिका को नकारा नहीं जा सकता।

पाठ्य-पुस्तक भाषा-शिक्षण में भाषा की विभिन्न छटाएँ प्रस्तुत करने का कार्य करती है।
एक पाठ्य-पुस्तक शिक्षण प्रक्रिया में प्रभावी शिक्षण की सुविधा के लिए उपयोग किया जाने वाला एक आवश्यक उपकरण है। सामूहिक शिक्षण व्यवस्था में पाठ्य-पुस्तक बहुत ही आवश्यक एवं उत्तम शैक्षिक साधन है।

उपर्युक्‍त पंक्तियों के रचयिता का नाम है - सुभद्राकुमारी चौहान
ये पंक्तियां सुभद्रा कुमारी चौहान द्वारा रचित 'अनोखा दान' कविता से लिया गया है।

'उपनयन' शब्द में अव्ययीभाव समास है। इस समास का पहला पद प्रधान होता है और समस्तपद वाक्य में क्रियाविशेषण का काम करता है। इसी कारण से अव्ययीभाव का समस्तपद सदा लिंग, वचन और विभक्तिहीन रहता है, इसके दोनों पदों का स्वतंत्र रूप से पृथक् प्रयोग नहीं होता क्योंकि यह प्रायः नित्य समास होता है। उदाहरण: यथामति, प्रतिदिन आदि।

दिए गए विकल्पों में से ‘प्राचीन काल’ सही उत्तर है।

• This conclusion is stated in the final paragraph of the passage, where it is mentioned that "In conclusion, discursive writing is a valuable tool for exploring different perspectives and drawing well-reasoned conclusions."
• This means that the author of the passage believes that discursive writing has value as it allows for the exploration of multiple viewpoints and the formation of conclusions based on evidence and reasoning.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 1.

This is the correct option because you will be expected to recognise strategies for promoting fluency with respect to reading rate, reading accuracy and prosodic reading. You may be asked about appropriate strategies for monitoring students' reading fluency development.

Language is one of the most important characteristic forms of human behavior. Language plays a crucial role in the process of learning. It is evident that the child acquires the language in the home environment informally in an unstructured manner but it is at the school where the child learns the language formally.
In language learning, it's a teacher's responsibility to use customized and stimulating instructions method to make learning interesting for learners. If a foreign/non-mother tongue language teacher often faces the problem of a class full of reluctant, unmotivated learners, this can be helped by the following ways:

• Encouraging students and teaching them responsibility, to get them involved in the classroom.
• Setting expectations and making reasonable demands encourages students to participate.
• Teaching through games and discussions instead of lectures, encourage students to debate.
• Using methods and strategies to motivate the students such as offering a small incentive for work.
• Making learning more challenging in the class by connecting it with the real world to ensure learners' active involvement.

Thus, from the above-mentioned points, it is clear that if a foreign/non-mother tongue language teacher often faces the problem of a class full of reluctant, unmotivated learners, it can be helped by using methods and strategies to motivate and make learning more challenging in the class.

This is the correct option. Teachers can encourage growth of interpersonal intelligence by designing lessons that include group work and planning cooperative learning activities.

Given:
Central angle for Hindi: 65° Central angle for Mathematics: 85°
Concept used:
To find the difference between the marks obtained in Mathematics and Science, we need to calculate the respective central angles for each subject and then use them to determine the marks obtained
Calculation:
Calculate the total of all central angles: Total of central angles = 65° + 53° + 85° + 81° + 76° = 360°
Calculate the marks obtained in Science and Mathematics using the central angles: Marks obtained in Science = (81° / 360°) ×  Total marks = (81/360) ×  630 = 141.75 (approximated to 114 marks)
Marks obtained in Mathematics = (85° / 360°) ×  Total marks = (85/360) × 630 = 148.75 (approximated to 149 marks)
Calculate the difference in marks between Mathematics and Hindi: Difference = Marks obtained in Mathematics - Marks obtained in Hindi Difference = 149 - 141 = 8 marks
Hence, the student obtained 35 more marks in Mathematics than in Science.

Given:
x² + (2x/5) + (1/25) = 0 
Formula used:
(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab 
Calculation:
x² + (2x/5) + (1/25) = 0 
⇒ x² + 1/(5²) + 2 × x × 1/5 = 0
⇒ (x + 1/5)² = 0
⇒ x = -1/5 
Now, (x−(2/3))² = (-1/5 -2/3)²
⇒ (- 13/15)²
⇒ 169/225 
∴ The required result is 169/225.

Let the units digit of the original number be 'u'.
Let the tens digit be 'a'.
Thus, hundreds digit is 7 + u.
The number is 100(7 + u) + 10a + u.
The number on being reversed is 100u + 10a + 7 + u.
The difference is 100(7 + u) + 10a + u - (100u + 10a + 7 + u).
= 700 + 100u + 10a + u - 7 - u - 10a - 100u = 693
Thus, the units digit of the number so obtained is 3.
Hence, option (4) is correct.

The teacher is best advised to present counter examples and arrange materials of different shapes, sizes and weights for the child to investigate.

​Mathematics is a study of patterns, numbers, geometrical objects, data, and information. It deals with data analysis, integration of various fields of knowledge, deductive and inductive reasoning, and generalizations.

• The teacher while asking questions in the mathematics classroom should focus more on providing practical exercises and abstract knowledge to students to foster their individualized discovery-oriented learning.

Audio visual aids are those devices which are used in classrooms to encourage teaching learning process and make it easier and interesting. According to William. H. Burton, "Audio visual aids are those sensory objects or images which initiate or stimulate and reinforce learning".

Analytical and Critical Thinking Skills help to evaluate the problem and to make decisions. It does not require any physical activity, but only Mental activity is what is required.

Given:
A wire is in the shape of a square of side 66 cm
Formula Used:
The perimeter of a Square = 4 × Side
The perimeter of a Circle = 2πr
Calculation:
According to the question,
Perimeter of Square = Perimeter of Circle
⇒ 4 × 66 = 2 × (22/7) × r
⇒ 2 × 3 = r/7
⇒ r = 42 cm
∴ The radius of the circle is 42 cm.
