behaviourist-gestalt-bandura-and-piaget-learning-theories MCQ

Question 1

A teacher wants learners to keep using a correct method for identifying soil samples. After each correct identification, she gives immediate specific feedback and asks them to practise again. Which learning-theory cue is strongest?

Accepted Answer

A is correct because immediate feedback after a desired response and repeated practice are behaviourist reinforcement cues. B would need observation of a model, C would need sudden whole-pattern understanding, and D would need the learner to revise an idea after evidence.

Question 2

Which statement should be rejected while matching classroom situations with learning theories?

Accepted Answer

D is correct because it is the statement to reject: practice and reinforcement can be supportive, not punishment. A, B and C are valid matching ideas from the classroom cue approach.

Question 3

A learner watches the teacher use the frame 'What is the evidence?' and 'What is the reason?' Later, the learner uses the same frame in group work. Which learning cue is strongest?

Accepted Answer

Option C is correct because the learner observes the teacher's questioning frame and later uses the same frame in group work. Bandura's observational learning fits learning through observing a model. Option A reduces progress to marks or speed, option B omits the observed model, and option D is unrelated memorisation.

Question 4

A learner watches a peer use dictionary guide words to find a term, then uses the same method to find another term. Which learning-theory cue is strongest?

Accepted Answer

Option C is correct because Bandura's theory explains learning through observing others: the learner watches a peer use guide words and then applies the same method. A treats marks or speed as the main evidence, B would fit sudden insight into a whole pattern, and D would fit revision after conflicting evidence, not imitation of a model.

Question 5

A teacher demonstrates how to place a ruler from the zero mark, then learners observe and use the same method to measure objects. Which learning-theory cue is strongest?

Accepted Answer

Option B is correct because the learners watch the teacher's demonstration and then use the same measuring method, which is Bandura's observational learning through modelling. Marks or speed, Gestalt insight, and Piaget-related conceptual change are not the strongest cues in this scenario.
