Teaching and Learning

Which learning theory emphasises that learning occurs through rewards and punishments?

• Constructivism

• Behaviorism

• Universal Design for Learning

• Differentiated Instruction

In Constructivism, the role of the teacher is primarily to:

• Provide direct instructions and correct answers.

• Facilitate experiences that allow students to construct their own understanding.

• Ensure that all students receive the same instruction and content.

• Focus on memorization and repetition of information.

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) aims to improve and optimize teaching and learning for:

• Only students with disabilities.

• All students, including those with disabilities.

• Students who are gifted and talented.

• Adult learners returning to education.

Differentiated Instruction is a teaching approach that:

• Requires all students to learn the same material in the same way.

• Involves teaching each student in a way that matches their learning style.

• Is only used in special education settings.

• Focuses on lecture-based teaching without student interaction.

Which of the following is a key principle of Formative Assessment?

• Grading students at the end of the term.

• Providing feedback that students can use to improve their learning.

• Comparing students against each other.

• Focusing solely on summative assessments.

Culturally Responsive Teaching aims to:

• Ignore cultural differences in the classroom.

• Incorporate students' cultures into the learning process.

• Focus only on the dominant culture in the curriculum.

• Discourage students from expressing their cultural identities.

Which of the following is NOT a principle of Universal Design for Learning?

• Providing multiple means of engagement.

• Offering only one way for students to express what they know.

• Supplying various ways of presenting information.

• Giving students options for how they can engage with the material.

Behaviorism in education focuses on:

• The internal thought processes of the learner.

• The social context of learning.

• Observable and measurable aspects of student behavior.

• The unique learning styles of each student.

Constructivism suggests that meaningful learning occurs when:

• Students passively receive information from the teacher.

• Students actively construct their own understanding and knowledge of the world.

• Learning is standardized for all students.

• Students are rewarded or punished based on their performance.

Differentiated Instruction often involves:

• Teaching in a one-size-fits-all manner.

• Ignoring students' interests and backgrounds.

• Adjusting the curriculum based on students' readiness, interests, and learning profiles.

• Using only traditional lectures and textbooks.
