Mastery learning focuses on allowing students to learn at their own pace until they achieve a level of mastery in a subject or skill, rather than moving the entire class along at the same speed regardless of individual learning rates.

Question 6

The students are participating in folk dance. The task is for students to skip forward and around their partner by performing a do-si-do. The task is completed in time with the teacher's claps, 4 skips in and 4 skips out. This teaching style is:
A) Command
B) Practice
C) Inclusion
D) Reciprocal
E) Divergent

Accepted Answer

The command teaching style involves the teacher directing the students' actions, such as clapping to set the rhythm and instructing them on the specific movements to perform.

Question 7

The students are participating in catching and throwing. The task is for each student to find a space in the gym and toss and catch their beanbag for 2 minutes. The teaching segment is in style:
A) Command
B) Practice
C) Guided discovery
D) Inclusion
E) Convergent

Accepted Answer

The practice style of teaching involves students working independently on a task, allowing them to practice skills at their own pace, which is what is described in the scenario.

Question 8

Playing a game that uses skills developed in the lesson Focus is an example of the
A) introductory activity.
B) fitness activity.
C) culminating activity.
D) task analysis.
E) anticipatory set.

Accepted Answer

Playing a game that uses skills developed in the lesson as a Focus is an example of a culminating activity. This type of activity typically occurs at the end of a lesson or unit to help students apply what they have learned in a comprehensive manner.

Question 9

Competition
A) reduces stress and anxiety during the later stages of skill learning.
B) should be introduced in the early stages of skill learning.
C) affects the arousal level of children.
D) is necessary for learning.
E) is positively related to over learning.

Accepted Answer

Competition affects the arousal level of children, influencing their performance and motivation in both positive and negative ways depending on the individual and context.

Question 10

Which of the following is NOT a purpose of the introductory activity in a lesson?
A) Practice new skills.
B) Provide immediate activity.
C) Serve as a physiological warm up.
D) Pre-focus on learning outcomes of the lesson.
E) Check cognitive concepts.

Accepted Answer

The introductory activity in a lesson is designed to engage students, focus their attention on the learning outcomes, serve as a warm-up, and check prior knowledge. Practicing new skills is typically not the purpose of an introductory activity; it is usually aimed at later stages of the lesson after new information has been presented.

Question 11

Which of the following reflects balance and equilibrium?
A) stability
B) force
C) leverage and motion
D) motion and direction
E) stability and force

Accepted Answer

Stability is synonymous with balance and equilibrium, as it refers to the state of being steady and not changing or being disturbed.

Question 12

Which of the following formations is most appropriate for reciprocal teaching?
A) mass or scattered
B) squad
C) partner
D) lane or file
E) line and leader

Accepted Answer

Reciprocal teaching is a collaborative learning approach where students work in pairs or small groups to discuss and reflect on what they have learned. This method emphasizes dialogue between students, allowing them to teach each other, ask questions, clarify misunderstandings, and summarize content. The partner formation is most appropriate for this teaching strategy because it facilitates close interaction and communication between students, enabling them to engage in the reciprocal teaching process effectively.

Question 13

Which of the following is an example of inquiry teaching style?
A) convergent
B) inclusion
C) reciprocal
D) self-check
E) practice

Accepted Answer

Inquiry teaching style, such as convergent, involves asking questions with specific answers that lead students to discover concepts by themselves, fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Question 14

Random practice
A) is effective during the first stages of skill practice.
B) allows learners to practice the same skill over and over.
C) shows rapid improvement in the early stages of skill learning.
D) allows for all trials of one task to be completed before moving on to the next.
E) demonstrates a high level of retention.

Accepted Answer

Random practice is effective for skill retention because it involves practicing multiple skills in a varied order, which enhances learning and memory retention over time.

Question 15

Stability
A) is necessary to apply force to an object.
B) is the force required to cause movement.
C) is a measure of forced applied to mass.
D) occurs after force has been applied to an external object.
E) is directly related to leverage.

Accepted Answer

The answer of Stability
A) is necessary to apply force to...

Question 16

The body's centre of gravity
A) can be lowered by bending the knees.
B) is genetically related.
C) must always be above the base of support.
D) determines overall muscular strength.
E) remains stable throughout childhood.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The body's centre of gravity
A) can be...

Question 17

Which of the following is NOT associated with the cognitive phase of motor skill acquisition?
A) Learner creates a mental plan of the skill.
B) Minimal conscious attention to skill performance is necessary.
C) Skill attempts are often tentative.
D) Specific and simple cues are essential.
E) Learning becomes less dependent on external cues.

Accepted Answer

Minimal conscious attention to skill performance is necessary is associated with the autonomous phase of motor skill acquisition, not the cognitive phase.

Question 18

Which of the following is associated with the associative phase of motor skill acquisition?
A) Learner begins to create a mental plan of the skill.
B) Minimal conscious attention to skill performance is necessary.
C) Skill attempts are often tentative.
D) Specific and simple cues are essential at this phase.
E) Learning becomes less dependent on external cues.

Accepted Answer

In the associative phase, learners refine their skills and become less reliant on external cues, focusing more on internal feedback and adjustments.

Question 19

Which of the following is associated with the autonomous phase of motor skill acquisition?
A) Learner creates a mental plan of the skill.
B) This phase is also known as the thinking phase.
C) Skill attempts are often tentative and uncoordinated.
D) Specific and simple cues are essential.
E) Minimal conscious attention to skill performance is necessary.

Accepted Answer

During the autonomous phase of motor skill acquisition, the skill has been practiced to the point where it can be performed with minimal conscious attention. This phase represents the highest level of skill mastery, where the action becomes automatic.
