The teacher should choose teaching method considering ................. . (i) Nature of the learners (ii) Nature of the objectives to be realized (iii) The teacher’s own ability and proficiency
(i), (ii) and (iii)
A teaching method is not chosen in isolation; it is the means by which a teacher connects the learner with the intended learning outcome. Good method selection therefore weighs everything that shapes the teaching–learning situation.
The nature of the learners (age, maturity, prior knowledge, interests and learning styles) decides whether a lecture, a discussion, a demonstration or an activity will work. The nature of the objectives (knowledge, understanding, skill or attitude) decides which method can actually achieve them; a skill objective needs practice, while a factual objective may be met by exposition. The teacher’s own ability and proficiency matters too, because a method handled clumsily fails even when it suits the learners and the objectives.
Since all three factors are legitimate considerations, the choices limited to the learners alone, the objectives alone, or the learners plus the objectives each leave out a factor that genuinely influences the choice of method.
(i), (ii) and (iii) option is correct.
