- C: Both A and B are not phrasal verbs and don't convey the same meaning as "attack."
- D: "go for me" is a phrasal verb and has the same meaning as "attack."

Identity vs. Role Confusion stage is a critical period during adolescence where individuals grapple with questions of identity, purpose, and their role in society. Successful resolution leads to a confident and purposeful sense of self, while difficulties may result in a sense of confusion and uncertainty.

Key Points

• This stage represents the psychological conflict between developing a clear sense of identity and experiencing role confusion or uncertainty about one's place in the world.
• Adolescents are tasked with exploring and understanding their own identities, including personal values, beliefs, and life goals.
• They engage in the exploration of various roles, whether it be in relationships, career aspirations, or societal expectations.
• The exploration of personal and occupational goals is a central aspect of this stage. Adolescents are expected to make choices that align with their emerging sense of identity and provide a foundation for their future endeavors.

Thus, Identity vs. Role Confusion is the correct answer.

Sequential learning is a type of transfer of learning that is used to help children learn concepts by relating past knowledge with new or wider concepts. The concepts in sequence learning are learned in an organized manner.

Key Points

• Sequential learning is also known as sequential transfer learning.
• Sequential learning involves keeping past knowledge as a base for teaching and learning new concepts and methods.
• For instance, the previous lecture can be used to teach present-day lectures.
• Sequential learning is carried out in a linear or organized manner.
• Sequential learning is beneficial for effectively learning the previous task.
• Sequential learning is also beneficial for mastering higher-level education.

Additional Information

• Vertical transfer involves learning concepts that are easy as well as hard with the help of past knowledge.
• The horizontal transfer involves learning a concept with the help of another concept.
• The lateral transfer involves understanding different concepts with the help of the learned concept.

Thus, it can be concluded that sequential transfer is also known as sequential learning.

India is a multilingual country with numerous languages and dialects. There are approximately 1652 languages and dialects that belong to different language families.

Key Points

• Languages that have a long history, whose grammar has been the subject of many studies and in which much literature has been written are referred to as classical languages.
• The classical languages are considered dead languages as they lose their importance in the modern world and their speakers shift to another language. A language becomes dead when the language has no more native speakers.
• As per the requirements set by the Government of India in 2004, a language is accorded the status of "Classical Language of India" if it fulfills the following criteria:
  • It should have a recorded history of existing for over a period of 1500-2000 years.
  • It would have an original literature tradition and would not borrow anything from any other language family.
  • It should have some ancient literature or epics in it.
  • The language should be different from its modern/later forms.
• Currently, there are six languages mentioned in the 8th schedule of the Indian constitution that enjoy the "Classical" status in India that are Tamil (declared in 2004), Sanskrit (2005), Kannada (2008), Telugu (2008), Malayalam (2013), and Odia (2014).

Thus, it is concluded that Hindi is NOT a classical language.

Language teaching refers to the process of imparting knowledge and skills related to a specific language to learners.

Key Points

• Regular assessment through tests is an important practice in education to monitor and measure the progress of learners.
• Assessments provide valuable feedback to both teachers and students about the effectiveness of teaching and the level of understanding.
• They help identify areas that need improvement and guide instructional decisions.
• It's a way to ensure that learning objectives are being met and that students are making meaningful progress in their studies.

Hence, 'regular test should be taken to track the progress of learners' is correct.

Social studies encompass diverse concerns of society and include a wide range of content, drawn from the disciplines of history, geography, political science, economics, and sociology. The selection and organization of material into a meaningful social science curriculum, enables students to develop a critical understanding of society.

• Several disciplines like history, political science, geography, economics, etc. are considered under the scope of social studies. At the school level, selected disciplines of social sciences are taught to the learners mostly in an integrated and/or interdisciplinary manner.

Important Points

Let us examine the nature of different disciplines of social studies at the secondary stage:

1. History: History is concerned with different events that have happened in different parts of the world at different times. The teaching of history at this stage mainly acquaints the students with the contemporary history of India as well as significant developments in other parts of the world in contemporary time.
2. Geography: Geography is related to a different place and space-related issues like environment, atmosphere, resources, nature, temperature, transport and communication, etc. The teaching of geography at this stage mainly acquaints learners with the natural, economic, and developmental geography of India and the world.
3. Civics: Political Science is concerned with the contents relating to democracy, authority, governance, etc. of the individuals in society/state. At this stage, the teaching of political science acquaints students mainly with democratic values, mostly focusing on values enshrined in the Indian constitution.
4. Economics: Economics is the subject that is related to issues like production, consumption, distribution, marketing, exchange of goods and services, etc. At this stage, economics is taught to learners to make them aware of the functions of different economic institutions and how economic inequality persists in the country because of the ill-functioning of economic institutions. Introduction to Indian economics constitutes a significant aspect of learning economics at this stage.

Hence, we can conclude that Social Studies is a study of Geography, Economics, Civics and History.

EVS is a subject that integrates social studies (history, geography, political science, sociology, etc.), physical, chemical, and biological sciences, as well as environmental education at the basic level (protection and conservation). It aims to provide kids with a comprehensive or integrated understanding of the environment they live in. Environmental studies is a major area of the curriculum at the primary stage.

Key Points The objective of EVS are as follows:-

• EVS helps children connect with their natural and human-made environment and in understanding our dependence on the various components of the environment (biotic, abiotic, and human-made).
• It aims at developing active well-informed citizens who are aware of their environment.
• EVS helps children develop a holistic understanding of their environment including the sociocultural environment.
• EVS helps children in maintaining a multidisciplinary perspective to understand our environmental issues/problems and appreciate the impact/s of our daily activities on their integrity.

Hence, it is concluded that Only B is true.

Constructivism is centered on the idea that human knowledge and learning are actively constructed by the learner, not passively received from the environment.

Key Points

• Knowledge is always someone's knowledge. It is created or constructed by the experiencing individual. It is not impersonal or absolute.
• It is constructed from the individual's previous knowledge.
• For the learner, his/her knowledge construct is a viable one, as it suffices the purpose of organizing higher experiences of the world.
• The learner tends to reformulate his/her existing structures/ constructs by connecting them to the new experiences of the world.
• Bruner defines constructivism as a learning theory in which learning is seen as an active process in which learners construct new ideas or concepts based on their current and past knowledge.
• Constructivism implies that the learner is not a passive entity but an active cognizing subject.

Hence we conclude that Constructivism assumes that all knowledge is constructed from the learner’s previous knowledge.

IT and ICTs are very often interchangeably used in the context of modern technology infrastructure. ICT is a broad and comprehensive term, which comprises information technology and communication technology. Information technology includes radio, television, computer and internet, teleconferencing and mobile technology.

Key Points

• All these information technologies have mainly two types of communication technologies.
• Satellite based communication and
• Terrestrial based communication.
• Satellite based communication is the communication, which takes place between sender and receiver through a communication satellite whereas terrestrial based communication is the communication, which takes place through a network of transmitters spread across a geographical area, a country, or a state.
• This type of communication is used in the transmission of radio and television in India.
• However, with the launch of a series of satellites by Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), satellite based communication is being used for telecommunication.

Important Points

• Communicating information effectively by making use of appropriate technology is called information and communication technology (ICT).
• In all, ICT is an umbrella term that includes many communication devices such as radio, television, cellular phones, computers and network, satellite systems and so on.
• ICTs are defined, as a “diverse set of technological tools and resources used to communicate, and to create, disseminate, store, and manage information.

Mental health refers to a person’s behavior both emotionally and psychologically. For stable mental health of children, the following steps are taken:

• Students are given activities by their teacher as per the students’ requirements.
• The teacher’s role becomes crucial since he is responsible for motivating and guiding students, so his behavior will reflect in students.
• While the school curriculum and its environment provide exposure to express themselves.

Hence, the teacher’s role and the school environment are the most important.

Mental health is not just the absence of negatives (psychopathology or symptoms of illness), but the presence of positives. To further elaborate, mental health is conceptualized as a multifaceted construct. Defining mental health is not very easy as it includes several issues that need to be considered carefully.

Key Points

Signs of Mentally Healthy Person

• Maintain self-esteem, self-confidence and make a person free from excessive anxiety, depression, worry, and disturbing fears.
• Maintain tolerance ability and the ability to accept others, whose beliefs, standards, and tastes differ from the others.
• Maintaining harmony or balance between the needs, desires, aspirations, and attitudes of the individual with respect to the prevailing conditions in the external environment.
• No mental or personality disorder.
• It is goal-directed behavior.
• Make the person emotionally mature by fulfilling their emotional and social needs.
• Recognize one's own abilities or skills.
• Manage or deal with the pressure of daily life.

Hence, we can conclude that immaturity is not a sign of a mentally healthy person.

Art is not only to always blindly copy the old masters or copying the teacher’s work in a rigid manner but to help learners express themselves in creative and imaginative ways. Creative arts cannot be a substitute of Work Education under which a few artistic activities may be conducted but the approach and product would be different.Key Points

Hence we can conclude that Drama is not the example of visual arts and rest examples are.

Gender discrimination refers to the unfair or unfavorable treatment of a person or a group of people based on their gender. Gender discrimination is discrimination or unequal treatment on the basis of sex.

Key PointsDiscrimination can be direct and indirect.

• Direct discrimination occurs when gender is used as an explicit reason for discriminating. For example, a teacher wants to select a class monitor. Here, a teacher may think that it is better to have a boy as a class monitor and select a boy rather than a girl. This is direct discrimination.
• Indirect discrimination occurs when there are provisions and practices which put girls and women at a disadvantage. For example, if an employer gets new chairs for only the male workers, it is indirect gender discrimination.

Sources and forms of Gender Discrimination: Gender discrimination can originate from several sources.

• It begins with Family and parents
• Educational opportunities
• Nutrition, Health, and Leisure
• Laws and rules
• Appointment, promotion, placement
• Division of labor inside the house
• Education, Textbooks, Curriculum, and teachers
• Property, Resources, and Control over resources
• Government policies

Hence, we can conclude that both I and II are sources of gender discrimination.

Work education is considered purposeful and meaningful physical labor, which is organized as the inherent part of the educational process. It is deemed as the production of meaningful material and community service, in which the children share the experience of contentment and pleasure.

Key Points

• Work education establishes coordination between the hand and brain.
• Develops skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, and decision-making.
• Develop and enhances professional readiness and efficiency in production.
• Work education is associated as an essential factor with all the aspects of education in the multilevel education system.
• Provides an opportunity for interaction with different, tools, techniques, methods, materials, and objects.
• Provides opportunities for experiencing conditions related to community services.

Hence, we can conclude that Only I is correct regarding work education.

Inclusive education is a crucial component of the education system in India. It aims to provide equal educational opportunities to all children, regardless of their social or economic background, disability status, or any other factor that could lead to marginalization.

Key Points

• The SSA is a flagship program of the government of India that aims to provide universal access, retention, and quality education to all children, including those with disabilities.
• The program focuses on providing support to children from disadvantaged groups, including children with disabilities, by providing them with specialized support services, such as assistive devices, transport, and teacher training.
• This can be achieved by providing specialized training to teachers, ensuring that schools are equipped with assistive technology, and creating an inclusive curriculum that addresses the needs of all learners.
• The statement "National Institute of Open Schooling is responsible for bringing affordable education for disabled persons" is incorrect. While the National Institute of Open Schooling does provide education for differently-abled learners, it is not solely responsible for bringing affordable education to disabled persons.

​Hence, it can be concluded that option 2 is the correct answer.

Key PointsThe benefit that is not associated with a diverse student body is increased social and academic competition.

• While diversity can lead to healthy competition, it is not the primary benefit.
• The other benefits include increased creativity and innovation, increased tolerance and understanding of different cultures and perspectives, and increased preparation for a diverse workforce.

Hence, we can conclude that increased social and academic competition is not a benefit of a diverse student body.
