Characteristics of reflective level teaching – UGC NET Question

Statements B, C and D correctly capture the nature of reflective level teaching. B is true because learners are encouraged to hypothesise, test ideas and examine evidence. C is true as analysis and evaluation of information are central processes before reaching conclusions. D is true since reflective teaching aims to develop independence and originality of thought. A is false because rote memorisation is associated with memory level teaching, and E is false as reflective level teaching uses discussion, inquiry and problem solving rather than only teacher talk and repetition. Therefore B, C and D only is the correct set of statements.

Option A:
Option A groups B and C, which are both true, but omits D, which is also true. Hence B and C only cannot be accepted as correct.

Option B:
Option B includes C and D but leaves out B, so it is incomplete.

Option C:
Option C combines B, C and D, all true, and excludes A and E, which are false. Thus B, C and D only is the correct answer.

Option D:
Option D adds A (false), so A, B, C and D only cannot be chosen.

Option E includes E (false), so B, C, D and E only is not valid.
