0. Which of the following is a key to effective teaching behaviour?
- A
Teacher mediated dialogue which helps learners restructure what is being learned
- B
Elicting clarification of an answer given by students
- C
Soliciting additional information about a response of students
- D
Promoting low error rate (high success) contributive to increased levels of students' self esteem and positive attitude
- Option : A
- Explanation : A teacher mediated dialogue involving all the students of a class encourages students to shed inhibitions; and, freely discuss and interact to restructure what is being learnt. This is the ideal scenario that leads to the attainment of planned objectives and learning outcomes. So, this is key to effective teaching behaviour. Eliciting clarification of an answer/response or soliciting additional information is likely to demoralise and de-motivate the student. On the other hand, promoting low error rate (high success) may not contribute to increased levels of students' self esteem and positive attitude for below average students.
