0. Why do you not support the five-stage method of Herbart?

  • Option : D
  • Explanation :

    Herbart's method is criticized because it lacks flexibility. It doesn't accommodate individual learning differences, coordination between subjects, or adaptability for content like language or history.

    Option A: In this, there is no scope for the individual diversity of students
    Correct; the rigid structure limits personalized learning.

    Option B: Under this, it is difficult to make coordination between various subjects
    Correct; the method is subject-focused, not interdisciplinary.

    Option C: Under this, generalisation is not required to be done while teaching subjects like language, history, geography etc.
    Correct; such subjects need contextual understanding, not strict generalization.

    Option D: all of these
    Correct; it combines all the valid criticisms of the Herbartian method.
