A1, 2, 3 and 5

B1, 3 and 5 ✓ Correct

C2, 3, 4 and 5

DAll of the above

Correct answer: (B) 1, 3 and 5

Explanation

The genuine features of teaching are that it must include feedback (1), it implies making others learn (3), and it can happen without formal communication (5).

Feedback (1) lets the teacher check and adjust whether learning is taking place.

Making others learn (3) is teaching's defining aim, distinguishing it from mere telling.

Teaching without formal communication (5) holds, since demonstration and gesture also instruct.

Organizing and supervising (2) and convincing others (4) describe management and persuasion, not teaching itself.

Teaching is commonly defined as an interactive process of teacher, learner and content aimed at bringing desirable change.
