Pre-Session MCQs

When a student makes a mistake in class, the most effective teacher response is:

• Correct the mistake immediately so others don't repeat it

• Ignore it and move on quickly to maintain flow

• Use the mistake as a chance to explain the concept and let the student retry

• Ask another student to provide the correct answer

Mistakes in learning should be seen as:

• Proof that students are not paying attention

• A normal part of the learning process

• Disruptions that slow down teaching

• Opportunities to identify weak students

Students in your class learn differently. The best way to respond is to:

• Expect all students to adapt to your teaching style

• Use a variety of teaching methods so every learner can connect

• Focus mainly on the strongest students to raise overall performance

• Teach in one way for fairness and consistency

Valuing student differences means:

• Accepting students' weaknesses as they are

• Allowing every student to submit any type of work they prefer, even if not aligned

• Recognising diverse strengths and giving choices in how they learn and show understanding

• Providing special treatment to only struggling students

The best kind of feedback is:

• Specific and immediate

• General and given at the end of the semester

• Focused only on errors

• Overly positive so students feel good

A student submits weak work. The most effective teacher response is:

• 'This is not good enough. Do it again.'

• Highlight one strength and one clear area for improvement

• Correct all the mistakes and hand it back

• Give a low grade to motivate them to try harder

The best way to check if teaching is effective is:

• Wait for exam results

• Ask students mid-lesson if they're following

• Trust your own delivery without checking

• Compare your teaching to colleagues' styles

A teacher who evaluates themselves will:

• Rely only on student marks to judge success

• Reflect regularly and adapt teaching strategies

• Stick to lesson plans regardless of student response

• Focus mainly on syllabus coverage
