Correct Answer - Option 1 : Exploration of relationships between concepts
Learning is a natural process of growth or change in a person which is manifested as new modes or patterns of behavior. This change exhibits itself as a skill, a habit, an attitude an understanding, or as knowledge or an application.
Teaching-learning at the understanding level emphasizes the comprehension of the meaning of something when it is taken out of that particular context. It means seeing solitary facts in relation to general principles.
- Comprehension means mastery of the subject matter. It is reached when a thorough understanding of the subject matter is gained through planned learning. It involves exploration, presentation, assimilation, organization, and recitation through oral presentation.
- The students at this level develop curiosity, interest, inquiry, and persistence which culminates in a scientifically determined conclusion or solution of a problem.
- As we help learners in acquiring information, ideas, skills values, ways of thinking, and means of expressing themselves, we are also teaching them how to learn. In fact, the most important long term outcome of teaching may be the learners’ increased capabilities to learn more easily and effectively in the future.
Thus from the above-mentioned points, it is clear that the exploration of relationships between concepts is the most effective mode of teaching-learning.
