ALoading it with too many facts to be memorised
BReducing the number of textbooks per subject
CStrengthening links between school and community
DEncouraging problem solving over rote recall
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Loading it with too many facts to be memorised
1. NCF 2005 lists problems of the subject-based, textbook-packaged approach. 2. It notes that information takes precedence over knowledge, favouring bulky textbooks and mechanical retrieval. 3. This tendency of mistaking information for knowledge leads to 'loading' the curriculum with too many facts to be memorised. 4. The other options are the opposite of this result, so loading with too many facts is correct. _Source: NCF 2005 (NCERT), "2.6 Recreating Knowledge", p.36_
