50 Questions Science Part-III Teaching Methods (Sr Teacher)

Reviewed by: Aspirant Academy Editorial Team

Practice Questions

Q1. A teacher presents this situation: 'Two identical iron nails are kept for a week, one in dry air and one partly dipped in salt water. Why does one rust faster?' Students list possible causes, choose what evidence is needed, plan a comparison, and revise their answer after results. Which method is most precisely represented?

A Lecture cum demonstration method, because the teacher uses a visible example before explaining rusting.
B Textbook method, because the example is common enough to be answered by reading the chapter on metals.
C Problem solving method, because learners move from a problematic situation to hypothesis, evidence collection, testing and revision of explanation. Correct
D Deductive method, because the teacher should first give the law of corrosion and then ask students to apply it to the nails.

Explanation

The problem solving method begins with a felt difficulty or puzzling situation and proceeds through analysis, hypothesis formation, collection or use of relevant evidence, and testing or revision. The nail-rusting task is not merely an illustration of a known law; it requires learners to identify variables such as moisture and salts, design a comparison, and defend a conclusion. That makes the method more exact than simply calling it a demonstration.

Q2. The best description of a school science club is that it is

A a student-centred forum for activities such as exhibitions, projects, quizzes, lectures and field visits Correct
B a punishment group for students who do not submit practical files
C a substitute for all regular science periods in the timetable
D a teacher-only committee for buying laboratory materials

Explanation

A science club widens the learning environment beyond the classroom and laboratory period. Through projects, displays, science talks, fairs and visits, it encourages curiosity, leadership, teamwork and application of science in daily life.

Q3. A teacher writes the objective: 'Students will compare two methods of water purification and decide which is more suitable for a village during floods, giving reasons.' Which Bloom level is mainly targeted?

A Evaluation, because students compare alternatives and justify a decision using criteria Correct
B Knowledge, because students remember names of purification methods
C Comprehension, because students translate the textbook paragraph in their own words
D Application, because students only use a formula in a familiar numerical problem

Explanation

The objective asks students to compare alternatives, select the more suitable method and give reasons. In Bloom's original cognitive taxonomy, such reasoned judgement against criteria belongs mainly to evaluation. It is more demanding than recall, comprehension or routine application because the learner must defend a choice.

Q4. A learner says, "I will accept the result only after checking the data, even if it contradicts my first idea." Which component of scientific attitude is most clearly shown?

A Respect for evidence and willingness to revise judgement Correct
B Preference for quick conclusions
C Mechanical obedience to a laboratory manual
D Dependence on authority

Explanation

Scientific attitude includes habits such as objectivity, open-mindedness, intellectual honesty, respect for evidence and suspended judgement. In the given statement, the learner does not cling to an initial idea; the learner is ready to revise judgement after examining data. That makes respect for evidence and willingness to reconsider the best description.

Q5. During a lesson on sound, a science teacher coordinates with the music teacher so that students relate frequency, pitch and musical notes in the same week. Which type of correlation is being used?

A Correlation with daily life only
B Correlation within different branches of science
C No correlation, because music is outside the science syllabus
D Correlation of science with another school subject Correct

Explanation

In pedagogy of science, correlation may be made with daily life, within different branches of science, or with other school subjects. The sound-and-music example is not merely an everyday illustration; it is a planned curricular link between physics content and the school subject of music. Such correlation helps students see that knowledge is interrelated rather than confined to separate compartments.
