Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Concept: Mosston's Spectrum of Teaching Styles classifies instruction by one governing criterion: who takes the decisions in the pre-impact (planning), impact (execution) and post-impact (evaluation) phases of a lesson. Every style on the spectrum is fixed by that decision distribution alone, and the styles form a continuum from teacher-owned decisions at one end to fully learner-owned decisions at the other.
Application: Read each action in List-I only for the decision-maker it names, then place it on that continuum.
Action (List-I) | Who takes the decisions | Teaching method (List-II) |
|---|---|---|
A. Teacher makes all decisions | Teacher owns planning, execution and evaluation; the learner takes none of the three. | Command (IV) |
B. Students perform in pairs, one performs, the other gives feedback | Teacher plans; the doer executes; a peer observer takes the post-impact feedback decisions. | Reciprocal (III) |
C. Students carry out teacher prescribed tasks | Teacher sets the task; the learner takes the impact-phase decisions of pace, order and start/stop. | Practice (II) |
D. Student takes full responsibility for the learning process | The learner owns all three phases and is simultaneously teacher and learner. | Self-Teaching (I) |
Cross-check: Ordered by how many decisions pass to the learner, these four styles form the ladder Command to Practice to Reciprocal to Self-Teaching. That ladder fixes the two extremes immediately: the action with zero learner decisions can only take Command, and the action with complete learner responsibility can only take Self-Teaching. Between them, the deciding distinction is the post-impact phase: when a peer supplies the feedback the style is Reciprocal, whereas executing a prescribed task on one's own is Practice.
Result: A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I.
