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, Childhood, Adolescence, and Adulthood.

Key Points

• Development proceeds in the human body from general to specific.
• The child's responses are of the general sort before they become specific.
• The general activity precedes the specific activity i.e., the child moves his hands first randomly and then starts using his fingers specifically and takes complete control of his hand movements.

Hence, it could be concluded that development proceeds in the human body from general to specific.

Development: The term 'development' refers to a progressive series of changes that occur in an orderly, predictable pattern as a result of maturation and experience.

Key PointsDevelopment is always in a sequence:

• Every living being followed a pattern of development. A child also develops in an orderly sequence that is almost similar in all children. Each stage of development leads to the next; for instance, all children first learn to sit without support before they learn to stand up.

Cephalocaudal:

• One of the sequential patterns of development relates to the two directions in which development takes place. Normally, the development of the upper portions of the body precedes the development of the lower portions. This is known as the 'cephalocaudal' or "head to toe" sequence.
• This means that improvements in the structure and function of a child's body come first in the head region, then in the trunk and last in the leg region. This growth pattern helps to explain why children sit before they can stand and crawl before they can walk. 

Thus, Cephalo – Caudal principle of development states that development proceeds from head to toe.

Additional Information 

• Secondly, the development moves from the centre line of the body outward towards the distant or peripheral parts referred to as 'proximodistal' or 'near to far'.

Thus, Cephalo – Caudal principle of development states that development proceeds from head to toe.

The development of a child is primarily determined by two factors: heredity and environment. Heredity refers to inborn traits and capacities. These inborn capacities are transmitted from parents to the child. The birth of a child is also considered to be a social phenomenon. The child is born at a place among other individuals.

Key Points The family, particularly the socialization practices and parent-child-relationship (i.e. the physical environment) has a great impact on cognitive, language, social, and personality development.

• A group of theorists, known as Behaviourists (most notably John B. Watson), believe that human development is controlled by these external factors and they totally ignore the significance of hereditary factors. 
• Both heredity and environment interact (multiply) to influence various aspects of development.
• The effect of the two is not simple addition (heredity + environment), rather it is multiplication (heredity x environment).
• A teacher must possess knowledge of heredity and environment both to understand the individual difference in the psychology of children.
• It is not easy to separate the effects of the two since, dynamic interaction between them is continuous and complex. 

Hence, we conclude that the knowledge of both Heredity & Environment is very much essential for a teacher in dealing with all kinds of children.

Learning is defined as a process of behavior modification through experiences, exercise, and efforts.

Key Points

• Retroactive Inhibition: (Retro=backward) Forgetting of previously stored information due to learning new information. It is the process in which subsequent learning inhibits the retention of original learning.

Additional Information

• ​Proactive Inhibition: (Pro=forward) - Forgetting of newly acquired information due to interference from previously learned information.
• External Inhibition: It is a temporary decrement of a conditioned response due to an extraneous stimulus.
• Internal Inhibition: Internal Inhibition affects the cortical center of the conditioned reflex.

​Hence, we can conclude that retroactive Inhibition is the process in which subsequent learning inhibits the retention of original learning.

Multilingualism can be described as the awareness, understanding, and knowledge of more than one language. Multilingualism involves skilled ability in both writing and speaking more than one language. 

Key Points

•  Multilingualism classroom involves children who are aware of more than one language and children who have more than one first language. 
• To design a multilingual classroom, the involvement of the local community in the development of the curriculum, learning materials, and learning teaching process is necessary. 
• It helps to design the classroom in a way that every child understands the lessons effectively. 
• A multilingual classroom enhances and enriches the perspective of the children. 
• Local communities can aid to develop curriculums and materials so that natives can easily understand as well as the children who are not much skilled in other languages. 

Thus, it can be concluded that a multilingual classroom requires the involvement of the local community in the development of curriculum, learning materials, and the learning teaching process is necessary. 

Lesson plans serve several purposes. Such plans can easily be modified in subsequent years of teaching a program. lesson plans can be evidence of good sound planning and preparation and provide detailed information about teaching performance and level of expertise. 

Key Points A lesson plan is the teacher’s road map of what students need to learn and how it will be done effectively during class time. A teacher keeps in mind while making a lesson plan to encourage discovery learning in his/her students are:

• Subject matter should be well-planned, prepared, written, and preserved to gain more confidence in teaching.
• Be very clear about the objectives of teaching the particular lesson. 
• The lesson plan's content should not be the students' responses.
• Refer to the appropriate and adequate source material to substantiate the running thread of the lesson.
• Use appropriate teaching aids systematically, effectively, and productively.
• The lesson plan should be developed from a previously determined logical structure.
• The introduction should straight away lead to the announcement of the aim.
• Questions put to the class should be definite and clear, stimulating and thought-provoking, and fairly well-distributed over the whole of the class.

Thus, it is concluded that the lesson plan should be developed from a previously determined logical structure a teacher keeps in mind while making a lesson plan to encourage discovery learning in his/her students.

Social development is one of the important factors of the overall development of children because children have to live in society once they pass out of school.Key Points

Schools are basically social institutions because

• Schools inculcate many social values like leadership, cooperation, and collaboration in children which will be useful for them in the future.
• Schools also act as the association between school children and society outside the school.
• They preserve and instill the values ​​of the future generations of our culture which include giving respect to elders, caring about the needy, and handy cooperation.
• Many activities conducted in the schools involve the participation of the community which inculcates many social skills and values in the children.

Hence, it can be concluded that schools are basically social institutions because they preserve and instill the values ​​of the future generations of our culture.

विकल्प और उनके अर्थ:-

Concept used:

-( -m/n) = m/n

(-m)/(-n)= m/n

(-m)/(n)= - m/n

(m)/(-n)= - m/n

m/n = m/n

Solution:

- ( -3/7) = 3/7

(-5)/(-8) = 5/8

9/8 = 9/8

3/(-7) = - 3/7

3/(-7) is a negative rational number.

Hence, the correct option is 4.

Calculation:

The pattern of the numbers in the row is in the form of

a, a², and a³

⇒ The next row of numbers that follows the same pattern is 2nd option.

As, 11, 11² = 121, 11³ = 1331

∴ The row of numbers that follows the pattern is 11, 121, 1331.

Given:

The volume of vessels is 286 litres, 364 liters and 442 litres.

Concept:

The largest common number which is the factor of all given numbers is called as H.C.F.

Calculation:

Volume of first vessel = 286 litres

⇒ 286 = 2 × 11 × 13

Volume of second vessel = 364 litres

⇒ 364 = 2 × 2 × 7 × 13

Volume of third vessel = 442 litres

⇒ 442 = 2 × 13 × 17

H.C.F = 2 × 13

⇒ H.C.F = 26

∴ The volume of the vessel is 26 litres.

Given:

Divisors = 13,15, 18, 21

Calculation:

⇒ Factors of 13 = 1 × 13

⇒ Factors of 15 = 3 × 5

⇒ Factors of 18 = 2 × 3 × 3

⇒ Factors of 21 = 3 × 7

⇒ LCM of 13, 15, 18, and 21 = 8190

⇒ Largest five digit number = 99999

⇒ Now, 99999 ÷ 8190 gives Remainder = 1719

⇒ Required number = 99999 – 1719 = 98280

Therefore, the greatest five digits number divisible by 13, 15, 18, and 21 is 98280.

Given:

AB is a chord in the minor segment of a circle with center O

C is a point on the minor arc (between A and B).

∠ACB = 108°

Concept Used:

The angle made by an arc at the center is double the angle made by the same arc at any point on the circumference of the circle of the conjugate arc.

The angle between the radius and the tangent at the point of contact is 90°

Calculation:

According to the figure, we can see that

AP and BP are the tangents at A and B

So, ∠OAP = ∠OBP = 90°

Now, According to the concept used

External ∠AOB = 2 × ∠ACB

⇒ External ∠AOB = 2 × 108°

⇒ External ∠AOB = 216°

Now, External∠AOB + Internal∠AOB = 360°

⇒ 216° + Internal∠AOB = 360°

⇒ Internal∠AOB = 360° - 216° = 144°

Now, In quadrilateral OABP

∠AOB + ∠APB + ∠OAP + ∠OBP = 360°

⇒ 144° + ∠APB + 90° + 90° = 360°

⇒ ∠APB = 36°

∴ The measurement angle is 36°.

Given:

PQ // RS, ∠P = (x + 2)°, ∠Q = (y + 5)°, ∠R = (2y + 10)° and ∠S = (2x – 32)°

Concept used:

∠P + ∠S = ∠Q + ∠R= 180°

⇒ x + y + z = 180°

Calculation:

⇒ ∠P + ∠S = 180°

⇒ x + 2 + 2x – 32 = 180°

⇒ 3x = 210°

⇒ x = 70°

Similarly, ∠Q + ∠R= 180°

⇒ y + 5° + 2y + 10° = 180°

⇒ 3y = 165°

⇒ y = 55°

If x and y are two angles and suppose the third angle is z.

⇒ 70° + 55° + z = 180°

⇒ 125° + z = 180°

⇒ z = 180° - 125°

⇒ z = 55°

Given:

Area = 1785 sq feet

Distance between the two parallel sides (height) = 35 feet

Length of one of the parallel sides = 42 feet

Formula used:

Area (Trapezium) = 1/2 x height x (side1 + side2)

Calculation:

Let's put the values in the formula,

1785 =  (1/2) x 35 x (42 + s)

102 = 42 + s

s = 102 - 42

s = 60

The other side of the trapezium is 60 feet in length.

Hence, the correct answer is option 1).

Green plants are not just important to the human environment, they form the basis for the sustainability and long-term health of environmental systems.

Key Points

Importance of Plants:

• Plants are really important for the planet and for all living things.
• Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen from their leaves, which humans and other animals need to breathe.
• Living things need plants to live - they eat them and live in them.
• Plants help to clean water too.
• Green plants are also a good source of food and protection.
• The removal of the trees, combined with severe drought, allowed the wind to remove the topsoil of many farms, causing severe crop damage.
• One solution to the problem was to plant rows of trees around cultivated fields to block the wind.

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.

The correct answer is May, 22.
