Noam Chomsky, known as the father of modern linguistics, has made a crucial contribution in the field of linguistics.
Let's understand Chomsky's view about language in brief:

• Innate ability: He strongly believes that children are born with an innate knowledge of grammar that serves as the basis for all language acquisition.
• Generative grammar: According to Chomsky it refers to a finite set of rules to generate sentences and can be used to produce more sentences in that language.
• Universal grammar: Chomsky's universal grammar suggests that all children have an innate ability to acquire, understand and develop grammar.
• Language Acquisition Device: Chomsky proposed that humans are equipped with a language acquisition device that enables a child to acquire and produce language.

A brief description of other psychologists:

So, Noam Chomsky is associated with ‘language development'.

Hearing impaired learners, sign language is the most appropriate.
A hearing-impaired person is the one who has difficulty in hearing. For such people, sign languages are used to show them what one is saying. The first person credited with the creation of a formal sign language for the hearing impaired was Pedro Ponce de León, a 16th-century Spanish Benedictine monk.

• A language that employs signs made with the hands and other movements, including facial expressions and postures of the body is called sign language.
• But people with disabilities including Autism, Apraxia of speech, Cerebral Palsy, and Down Syndrome may also find sign language beneficial for communicating.
• Sign language may be as coarsely expressed as mere grimaces, shrugs, or pointings; or it may employ a delicately nuanced combination of coded manual signals reinforced by facial expression and perhaps augmented by words spelt out in a manual alphabet.

Mental age ÷ Physical age × 100 = IQ
5/4 x 100 = 125
No matter what the child's chronological age is, if the mental age is the same as the chronological age, then the IQ will equal 100. Modern intelligence tests, including the current Stanford-Binet test, no longer compute scores using the IQ formula.

Critical Thinking: Critical thinking is a process that is way beyond mental exercise. It ensembles the various mechanisms of reasoning which enable us to, analyze, synthesize, process, and evaluate the information.

मौखिक अभिव्यक्ति वाद-विवाद कौशल का विकास करने का सशक्त माध्यम है।
मौखिक अभिव्यक्ति कौशल को विकसित करने का सशक्त माध्यम वाद-विवाद है क्योंकि यह एक ऐसी प्रतियोगिता है जिसमें बच्चे वक्ता के रूप में अपने विचारों को प्रकट करते हैं।
इसमें बच्चे समय सीमा का ध्यान रखते हुए अपने विचारों का तर्कपूर्ण प्रतिपादन करते हैं जो उनमें मौखिक अभिव्यक्ति कौशल को विस्तार देती है।

पढ़ना महत्वपूर्ण है क्योंकि यह मन का विकास करता है, नई चीजों की खोज करता है, कल्पना को भी विकसित करता है। अच्छे पठन कौशल, विशेष रूप से ध्वन्यात्मक पढ़ने के कार्यक्रम में, वर्तनी और शब्दावली में सुधार होता है। पढ़ना महत्वपूर्ण है क्योंकि बोले गए और लिखे गए शब्द जीवन के आधार हैं।

'सु + आगत', स्वागत शब्द की संरचना है।
'स्वागत' शब्द में 'सु' उपसर्ग और 'आगत' मूल शब्द है।
उपसर्ग उस शब्दांश या अव्यय को कहते हैं, जो किसी शब्द अथवा अव्यय के आदि में जुड़कर उसके अर्थ में विशेषता या परिवर्तन उत्पंन करते हैं; जैसे- अधिक के पहले 'अति' उपसर्ग लगने से अत्यधिक शब्द बन गया है।​

बच्चों को ऐसा वातावरण मिलना जरूरी है, जो भाषा से समृद्ध हो।समृद्ध भाषिक परिवेश में  बच्चे सहज रूप से स्वतः ही भाषा में सुधार कर सकते हैं।

• पढ़ने का आरम्भ अर्थपूर्ण एवं लिपि से होना चाहिए और किसी उद्देश्य के लिए होना चाहिए।
• यह उद्देश्य कहानी सुनकर-पढ़कर आनन्द लेना भी हो सकता है।
• धीरे-धीरे बच्चों में भाषा की लिपि से परिचित होने के बाद अपने परिवेश में उपलब्ध लिखित भाषा को पढ़ने-समझने की जिज्ञासा उत्तपन्न होने लगती है।

मुहावरे और लोकोक्तियों ये भाषा – प्रयोग को प्रभावी बनाते है।
हिंदी भाषा की सौंदर्य और आंचलिकता बनाए रखने हेतु शिक्षण कार्य के दौरान पाठ में निहित तथ्यों के संदर्भ में मुहावरों और लोकोक्तियों का उचित प्रयोग:

• भाषा प्रयोग को प्रभावी बनाता है।
• भाषिक अभिव्यक्ति को सजीव बनाता है।
• पाठ को अर्थपूर्ण, प्रवाहपूर्ण और रुचिकर बनाता है।
• बच्चों में लिखित-मौखिक अभिव्यक्ति कौशल का विकास करता है।
• बच्चों को तथ्यों को संदर्भ में जोड़ कर आसानी से समझने में मदद करता है।

इसलिए, यह कहा जा सकता है कि मुहावरे और लोकोक्तियों भाषा – प्रयोग को प्रभावी बनाते है।

There are many strategies or processes of reading in a fashion which makes reading an interesting and productive activity and 'Bottom-up approach' is one of them.

There are many ways to teach language to children. Some of the ways are as follows:

• Teaching through various activities, summarizing the lesson after explaining it, getting children to formulate answers to various types of questions, problem-solving techniques, making them undertake surveys, and the like.
• Each technique belongs to a specific language teaching method that has a specific set of principles. Some teachers teach in ways that do not belong to any specific language teaching method.
• In natural settings, children automatically acquire the rules of his/her language because there is considerable exposure, and because (s)he receives all the care and affection that makes language learning possible. Yet, without an innate faculty for language, it would be impossible to acquire structures as complex as those of language. We need to activate this language faculty optimally in school.
• The teacher should pay attention to selecting and communicating study material. Analysis of study material should be minimum and children should be motivated to find and search for things independently.
• The teacher must synchronize the mental level of children, their curiosity, their participation, her own intervention levels, challenging activities, and conceptual clarity.

From the above, we can it is clear that we can teach language to children in a classroom through activities and by telling the summary of the lesson after explaining it.

The direction of force acting on a current-carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field is determined by Fleming's Left Hand Rule. The direction of this force is always at a right angle to the plane containing both the conductor and the magnetic field, and is predicted by Fleming's Left Hand Rule.

Sociometric techniques are methods that qualitatively measure aspects of social relationships, such as social acceptance and social status (i.e. child's social standing in comparison to peers).

Children have little exposure to laws. Therefore, while discussing laws, it is important that teacher should give as many examples from familiar context.

This is the correct option because it is always the Normal Probability Curve, which demarcates the students into various performance categories made as per some fixed criteria, which majorly depends on the test taken by the school.

Micro-teaching is a teacher training and faculty development technique whereby the teacher reviews a recording of a teaching session, in order to get constructive feedback from peers and/or students about what has worked and what improvements can be made to their teaching technique.
