A social group establishing a positive inclination to inclusivity while fostering a feeling of oneness and a sense of belongingness in each of the members of the pluralistic society. It is the diversity that brings in the advocacy for equity and justice for each of the diverse persons in a group irrespective of their abilities, disabilities, social status, religion, class, caste, and so on and so forth.
Disadvantaged Learner-

• The socially disadvantaged child is one who is from a socially and economically backward section of the community, who cannot profit from school because of deprivation of one sort or another. Such children show cumulative academic deficits, high dropout rate and progressive decline in intellectual functioning. 

Deprived Learner-

• The term 'underprivileged' refers to the disadvantaged section of people who are economically, socially and vocationally in an unfavourable situation compared to the rest of the population of the society. Thus it is a relative term. They are underprivileged in relation to the middle class or upper-class people of their society. Educationists and social scientists have used many other terms such as 'deprived', 'psycho-socially deprived' 'culturally deprived', 'socioeconomically deprived', 'locationally deprived', etc.

By offering another child a toy, the child is enhancing his bond with that child which is social development and by making him stop crying, child displays his emotional skills which is emotional development.

According to Piaget’s Cognitive Development Theory, Cognition develops through the interaction between the child and the environment.​ Piaget’s theory focuses not only on understanding how children acquire knowledge but also on understanding the nature of the child’s intelligence.

If teacher will ask the students to do right things, then only the students will achieve the right result which is most important.

Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist, has made a systematic study of cognitive development in his theory that is categorized into four stages. 

• He observed his children and their process of making sense of the world around them and developed a model of how the mind processes new information encountered.

Progressive education focuses on learning that is both experiential and collaborative.
Some of the progressive educations qualities are:-

• Emphasis on learning by doing
• Integrated curriculum focused on thematic units
• Strong emphasis on problem solving and critical thinking
• Group work and development of social skills
• Collaborative and cooperative learning projects
• Education for social responsibility and democracy
• Emphasis of lifelong process and social skills

Part of the importance of emotion in education is that it is tied to cognition. Demetriou and Wilson (2008) tell us that "emotional development is inextricably intertwined with our acquisition of knowledge".

रियलिया कक्षा में उपयोग की जाने वाली रोजमर्रा की जिंदगी से जुड़ी वस्तुओं को संदर्भित करता है। रियलिया का उपयोग संवादों के लिए नई शाब्दिक या संरचनात्मक वस्तुओं को सिखाने के लिए सहारा के रूप में किया जा सकता है क्योंकि यह एक मूर्त शिक्षण-अधिगम वस्तु है।

Let's look at the highlighted lines in the 1st paragraph of the following passage.
Nature is a great teacher. Early man was thrilled with the beauty and wonders of nature. The Aryans worshipped nature. One can learn lessons in the vast school of nature. Unfortunately, the strife, the stress and the tension of modern life have made people immune to the beauties of nature. Their life is so full of care that they have no time to stand and stare. They cannot enjoy the beauty of lowing rivers, swinging trees, flying birds and majestic mountains and hills.
The author is saying that the life of the people is miserable because of the stress and tensions that's why they are unable to enjoy the beauty of nature. 
Hence, the correct answer is "option 3"

•  A noun is a word that represents a person, place, thing, or idea. 
• In the given passage, "perspectives" refers to viewpoints or ways of considering something, which is an idea, making it a noun.
• Here,  "perspectives" is the direct object of the verb "explore", representing the things that are being explored.

Thus, the correct answer is Option 1. 

• The word "democratized" in the given context is used as a verb.
• In English grammar, a verb is a word that represents an action, an occurrence, or a state of being.
• In the phrase "technology has democratized information," "democratized" is the action performed by "technology."
• The action is to make (in this case, information) accessible to everyone, which is the meaning of "democratize."

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 2.

'Gold' has been used as an adjective for the 'ring' here.

Given :
CD || EF || AB , in the figure
Concept used :
The sum of adjacent angles between two parallel lines is 180°
Calculation :
In quadrilaterals CEFD,
∠E+∠F+∠ECD+∠D = 360
∠C = 360−(140+2y+x)
∠ECD = 220−2y−x
As CD || AB,
∠ABC=∠BCD=70°
∠BCD = ∠ECD + ∠BCE = 70° 
⇒ 220 - 2y - x + y = 70°  
⇒ x + y = 150°    -----(1)
As  EF || AB,
So, 2y + x = 180°  -----(2)
On solving (1) and (2), we get
x = 120° and y = 30°
∴ The answer is 120°.

Given:
The diagonal of the cube = 5√3 cm
Rate of painting the cube = Rs. 7 per cm²
Formula used:
The diagonal of the cube = √3 × side
The Total surface area of the cube = 6 × side²
Calculation:
The diagonal of the cube = √3 × side
⇒ √3 × side = 5√3 cm
⇒ side = 5 cm
Now, The Total surface area of the cube = 6 × side²
⇒ 6 × 5² = 150 cm²
The cost of painting the cube = 150 × 7 = Rs. 1050
∴ The cost of painting the cube is Rs. 1050

• The State of Rajasthan is home to the Keoladeo National Park.
• It is a significant wintering location for migrating waterfowl from the Palaearctic.
• It is notable for hosting a sizable group of resident breeding non-migratory birds.
• Amid this patchwork of grasslands, forests, woodland swamps, and wetlands totalling just 2,873 hectares, a green nature oasis located in a populous human-dominated terrain, approximately 375 bird species and a rich variety of other life forms have been recorded here.
• The park was the only wintering location for the Siberian Crane's central population, which is critically endangered.
• Other endangered species, such as the Greater Spotted Eagle and Imperial Eagle, use it as a wintering location.

Perimeter of the smaller square = 4x cm
Perimeter of the bigger square = 4(2x + 1) cm = (8x + 4) cm
Thus, sum of their perimeters = (4x + 8x + 4)cm = (12x + 4) cm
Now, (12x + 4) cm = 100 cm
Or, x = 8
Thus, length of side of the bigger square = (2x + 1) cm = (2 x 8 + 1) cm = 17 cm
Area of bigger square = 17 cm x 17 cm = 289 cm²
Hence, option (4) is correct.

Critical angle:

• When the light rays pass from denser to rarer medium and due to a certain angle of incidence, the angle of refraction becomes 90o.This angle of incidence is called the Critical angle.

Total Internal reflection:

• Total internal reflection is a phenomenon of reflection of ray back to the same medium when passing from a denser medium to a rarer medium in such a way that the angle of incidence is greater than its critical angle.

Condition of Total internal reflection is-

• The light must travel from a denser medium to a rarer medium.
• The angle of incidence inside the denser medium must be greater than the critical angle.

Audio-visual aids are training or educational materials directed at both the sense of hearing and the sense of sight, e.g. films, recordings, and photographs used in classroom instructions, library collections, etc. Documentary film on a certain topic is easy to learn and interesting.

Science refers to the study of the structure and behavior of physical and natural things through observation and experimentation. 

• Diagnostic test refers to the test which helps the teachers to know the learning difficulties or gaps in learner's understanding and identifying learner's strengths, weaknesses, skills, etc.

The teacher try to promote honesty through this problem as honesty refers to a facet of moral character and connotes positive and virtuous attributes such as integrity, truthfulness, straightforwardness, including straightforwardness of conduct, along with the absence of lying, cheating, theft, etc.

Neutralisation is a chemical reaction in which an acid and a base react quantitatively with each other. By helping the learner to experience daily life situations in which neutralisation is involved, students will identify neutralisation reactions and summarize observations with respect to behaviour of indicators in acidic and basic solutions and its characteristics on their own. So, this is the best teaching strategy followed by a physical science teacher who is most concerned about a visually challenged learner to teach neutralisation.

The teaching method is a way to put theory into practice with the help of principles, pedagogy, and management strategies. It helps the teachers to plan and present the lesson coherently.
There are different kinds of teaching-learning methods that make learning a fruitful process and the 'interactive method' is one of them.

NCERT recommended that teaching and learning methods of science should totally shift from traditional approach and rote memorization. Viewing the student as an young explorer and scientist is one of the recommendations of NCERT.

The real spirit of heuristic method is placing the student in the position of original investigator which means involving his 'finding out instead of being merely told about things'.

Mathematics is a science that involves dealing with numbers, different kinds of calculations, measurement of shapes and structures, organization and interpretation of data, establishing relationships among variables, etc.

• During the sixth century B.C. Pythagoreans (Pythagoras and his followers) coined the term Mathematics.
• Mathematics is derived from the Greek word ‘Ganita’ which means ‘inclined to learn.

Science is a way of thinking, investigating, and proving the beliefs into facts with experiments, observations, and research conducted in a well-organized and systematic manner.

• It is based on verified facts, principles, and theories that aim to develop curiosity, scientific temper, and scientific attitude among the learners.
• The teaching of science should be done in a way so that it could enable children to examine and analyze everyday experiences.
