Unit 2 - LR

What is the definition of 'Learning to learn'?

• The ability to rely solely on teachers for learning

• The ability to memorize information quickly and efficiently

• The ability to pursue and persist in learning, to organise one's own learning, through effective management of time and information, both individually and in groups

• The ability to avoid learning new things

What is the difference between Teacher Directed Learning (TDL) and Student Directed Learning (SDL)?

• TDL decides the course goals and content, while SDL teaches students to set their own goals and choose what to study

• TDL guides students through challenges, while SDL reviews student assessment of their work

• TDL teaches students to identify sources of knowledge, while SDL decides on exercises and assignments

• TDL tests and grades student performance, while SDL presents course content

Can self-learning or self-directed learning be taught? Select the correct reason

• No, self-learning is solely dependent on the individual's motivation

• No, self-learning is an innate ability and cannot be taught

• Yes, by providing all the information and resources needed for learning

• Yes, by helping the learner identify a starting point and being a facilitator for the learning experience

What are the principles of Self-learning mentioned in the text?

• Self-learning is a one-time process, students do not need to develop any skills, and they do not have control over the learning experience

• We learn naturally and through unique methods, self-learning employs a range of human capacities, students have control over the learning experience, and there is skill development

• Self-learning is only for certain individuals, not everyone can engage in it

• Self-learning is only about memorization, students have no control over the learning experience, and there is no skill development involved

What are the advantages of Computer Aided Learning using ready-to-ready learning packages?

• No interaction, fixed content, delayed response, lack of multimedia, teacher-directed learning

• One-to-one interaction, limited freedom, delayed response, lack of multimedia, teacher-directed learning

• Group learning, limited interaction, delayed response, lack of multimedia, teacher-directed learning

• One-to-one interaction, freedom to experiment, instantaneous response, multimedia helps understand difficult concepts, self-pacing and self-directed learning

What are the principles of the Personalized System of Instruction (PSI)?

• Written materials, units of content, self-paced instruction, unit mastery, proctors

• Oral materials, random content, fixed pace instruction, no mastery requirement, no proctors

• Written materials, random content, self-paced instruction, no mastery requirement, no proctors

• Oral materials, units of content, fixed pace instruction, unit mastery, proctors

What is the purpose of Learning Centres?

• To provide individual application, hands-on work, and deeper understanding beyond the classroom

• To replace traditional classrooms completely

• To limit students' exposure to information

• To discourage students from learning independently

What are the characteristics of a Mini Course as mentioned in the text?

• No specific duration, covers a wide range of topics

• Long duration, covers multiple concepts or themes

• No duration, covers no specific concept or theme

• Short duration, covers a single concept or theme

What is Modular Instruction based on?

• The psychological principle of learning by doing

• The psychological principle of learning by listening

• The psychological principle of learning by watching

• The psychological principle of learning by reading

What are the merits of Self-Learning?

• Greater responsibility for learning, independent thinking skills, no self-management, lack of motivation, surface learning

• Equal responsibility for learning, dependent thinking skills, self-management, motivation, deep learning

• Less responsibility for learning, dependent thinking skills, no self-management, lack of motivation, surface learning

• Greater responsibility for learning, independent thinking skills, self-management, motivation, deep learning
