    Which of these is not a requirement for learning? - ProProfs

    Which of these is not a requirement for learning?

    • Physical ability

    • Capital

    • Health

    • Rest

    Correct Answer
    A. Capital
    Explanation
    Capital is not a requirement for learning because it refers to financial resources or assets, which are not essential for acquiring knowledge or skills. While capital may be helpful in certain educational contexts, it is not a prerequisite for the process of learning itself. Learning can occur regardless of one's financial resources or access to material wealth.

    Which of these is the basis of drill and practice? - ProProfs

    Which of these is the basis of drill and practice?

    • Physical ability

    • Capital

    • Rest

    • Exercise

    Correct Answer
    A. Exercise
    Explanation
    Drill and practice is based on exercise. This means that by repeatedly practicing and exercising a specific skill or concept, one can improve their performance and mastery of that skill. This involves repeated and focused practice, often with the goal of achieving automaticity or fluency in the skill being practiced. Through exercise, individuals can reinforce their learning, develop muscle memory, and improve their overall performance in a particular area.

    Which of these sense is not used in instruction? - ProProfs

    Which of these sense is not used in instruction?

    • Pressure

    • Touch

    • Hearing

    • Rhythm

    Correct Answer
    A. Pressure
    Explanation
    Pressure is not typically used in instruction because it is not a sense that can be easily communicated or understood in a verbal or written format. Instructions typically rely on senses such as touch, hearing, and rhythm, which can be more easily conveyed through words or actions. Pressure, on the other hand, is a physical sensation that is difficult to describe or convey accurately through instruction alone.

    Which of these is not a subject of Thorndike's princples? - ProProfs

    Which of these is not a subject of Thorndike's princples?

    • Effect

    • Exercise 

    • Illustration

    • Readiness

    Correct Answer
    A. Illustration
    Explanation
    Thorndike's principles of learning are based on the idea that learning is a result of the association between stimuli and responses. The principles include the Law of Effect, which states that behaviors followed by positive consequences are more likely to be repeated, and the Law of Exercise, which suggests that repetition strengthens the association between stimuli and responses. Readiness refers to the learner's state of preparedness to learn, while illustration is not a subject of Thorndike's principles.

    What is the degree of concentration and readiness called?

    • Effect

    • Exercise

    • Readiness

    Correct Answer
    A. Readiness
    Explanation
    Readiness refers to the degree of concentration and preparedness. It implies being mentally and physically prepared to take action or respond to a situation. This term suggests that an individual is fully equipped and willing to engage in a task or activity. Therefore, readiness is the appropriate term to describe the degree of concentration and preparedness.

    What principles deals with remembering concepts learnt? - ProProfs

    What principles deals with remembering concepts learnt?

    • Primacy

    • Adequacy

    • Rest

    • Recency

    Correct Answer
    A. Recency
    Explanation
    The principle of recency deals with remembering concepts that have been recently learned. This principle suggests that information that has been recently learned is more likely to be retained in memory. This is because our short-term memory has a limited capacity, and new information tends to push out older information. Therefore, the more recent the learning, the more likely it is to be remembered.

    Which of these is most important in learning? - ProProfs

    Which of these is most important in learning?

    • Readiness

    • Capital

    • Rest

    • Resources

    Correct Answer
    A. Readiness
    Explanation
    Readiness is the most important factor in learning because it refers to a person's preparedness and willingness to learn. Without readiness, individuals may not be mentally or emotionally prepared to engage in the learning process, which can hinder their ability to absorb and retain information. Readiness encompasses a person's motivation, interest, and ability to learn, making it a crucial aspect in the learning journey.

    How many laws of learning were postulated by Edward Thorndike? - ProProfs

    How many laws of learning were postulated by Edward Thorndike?

    • Two laws

    • Four laws

    • Five laws

    • Three laws

    Correct Answer
    A. Three laws
    Explanation
    Edward Thorndike postulated three laws of learning. These laws include the law of effect, which states that behavior followed by a satisfying outcome is more likely to be repeated, the law of exercise, which suggests that the strength of a connection between a stimulus and response increases with practice, and the law of readiness, which emphasizes that learning is most effective when the learner is ready and motivated to learn.

    What principle of learning agrees that real concepts are better learnt? - ProProfs

    What principle of learning agrees that real concepts are better learnt?

    • Exercise

    • Effect

    • Intensity

    • Recency

    Correct Answer
    A. Intensity
    Explanation
    The principle of learning that agrees that real concepts are better learnt is intensity. This means that the more intense or vivid the learning experience is, the better the concept is understood and retained. When a concept is presented in a more intense or engaging way, it captures the learner's attention and stimulates their cognitive processes, leading to better comprehension and memory of the concept.
