Question 1

Which example does NOT include graphic organizers?
A)essays and portfolios
B)pictures and photographs
C)Venn diagrams and cyclic diagrams
D)concept maps or concept webs

Accepted Answer

Graphic organizers are visual representations of knowledge, concepts, or ideas, and include tools like Venn diagrams, cyclic diagrams, concept maps, or webs. Essays and portfolios, however, are not considered graphic organizers as they are primarily text-based and do not organize information visually in the same manner.

Question 2

With which type of mental functions is the right hemisphere of the brain involved?
A)nonverbal, intuitive thinking
B)verbal skills
C)logical and categorical detail-oriented thinking
D)specifics and analysis; convergent thinking

Accepted Answer

The right hemisphere of the brain is primarily involved in nonverbal, intuitive thinking, including spatial abilities, recognition of faces, and processing of music. It is often associated with creative and holistic thought processes.

Question 3

An example of deductive reasoning is:
A)providing students with an opportunity to observe a variety of materials and decide their characteristics.
B)providing students with the concepts and then allowing them to make observations based on this concept.
C)setting up a lab and allowing students to inquiry about the phenomenon.
D)having students observe moon phases for a month and then introducing them to waxing and waning terms.

Accepted Answer

Deductive reasoning starts with a general statement or hypothesis and examines the possibilities to reach a specific, logical conclusion. In option B, students are given a general concept first, which they then apply to make specific observations, aligning with the deductive reasoning process.

Question 4

A teacher gives her preschool students a collection of items and asks them to put them in a tub of water to see if they will float.  What type of approach was she using?
A)Hemisphericity
B)Inductive Learning
C)Multi-methodology
D)Deductive learning

Accepted Answer

Inductive learning involves starting with specific observations or experiments and moving towards generalizations and theories. In this scenario, the students are making observations about whether specific items float or not, which could lead them to generalize about the properties that determine buoyancy.

Question 5

The cognitive, affective and physiological traits that learners exhibit as they interact in the classroom environment are called:
A)multiculturalism.
B)learning styles.
C)multiple intelligences.
D)deductive reasoning.

Accepted Answer

Learning styles refer to the various approaches or ways of learning. They involve educational conditions under which a student is most likely to learn, encompassing cognitive, affective, and physiological traits that serve as relatively stable indicators of how learners perceive, interact with, and respond to the learning environment.
