This question was previously asked in
UPTET 2026 Paper 2 Social Studies Question Paper (3-Jul-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Lecture

Expository (didactic) teaching methods are teacher-centred, where the teacher directly presents or explains information to students who largely play a receptive role.

The lecture method is the clearest example of this: the teacher verbally explains concepts in a structured, one-way manner while students listen and take notes.

Discussion and role play are learner-centred, participatory methods, while the project method is activity-based and learner-driven, so none of these fit the expository, teacher-centred description.

Therefore, the correct answer is Lecture.
