DStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
Correct answer: (C) Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Explanation

Statement 1 is correct while Statement 2 is incorrect, so teaching arranges learning environments and a model of teaching is precisely such a description.

Statement 1 rightly says the core of teaching is arranging environments in which students interact and learn how to learn.

This reflects Joyce and Weil, who define teaching as creating environments that shape the learner's capacities.

Statement 2 wrongly claims a model of teaching is not a description of a learning environment.

In truth a model of teaching is a plan or pattern that describes and shapes the learning environment.

Joyce and Weil grouped models into four families, information processing, social, personal and behavioural.
