4 DEC FS Q.17

0. Which of the following modes of communication can be employed in a classroom for effective teaching?
(A) Top-down
(B) Iconic
(C) Associational
(D) Dissociational
(E) Symbolic
(F) Abstract
Choose the most appropriate option from the following:

  • Option : A
  • Explanation : The following modes of communication can be employed in the classroom:
    • Top-down (issuing instructions and information in a hierarchical structure) when the teacher transacts a lesson using a teacher-centred method such as lecturing
    • Iconic (based on images rather than text)
    • Abstract (through stories, metaphors, allegories, and examples, with emphasis on the specific rather than the general)
    While dissociational communication would cause a disconnect between the teacher and the taught, associational would create association with some and distance others. Symbolic communication would compromise clarity and understanding.
