According to NCF 2005, what is the role of the teacher in a constructivist learning situation?
AA transmitter who pours information into pupils
BA facilitator who encourages reflection and interpretation
CA judge who marks only one correct answer
DAn authority whose words must never be questioned
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. A facilitator who encourages reflection and interpretation
1. NCF 2005 explicitly states the role of the teacher in the constructivist situation.
2. It says the teacher is a facilitator who encourages learners to reflect, analyse and interpret while constructing knowledge.
3. The transmitter image is the model the document opposes; the single-answer judge is the rigidity it criticises; the unquestioned authority is the stance it warns against.
4. Hence facilitator who encourages reflection and interpretation is correct.
