Given below are two statements. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Statement 1 is false because encouraging students to think critically and reflect on their experiences describes the reflective level, not the understanding level.

Statement 2 is true because teaching at the memory level does involve rote memorization and does not encourage critical thinking.

The understanding level aims at comprehension of relationships and meaning, a step above memory.

The reflective level is where critical thinking and reflection actually belong.

The memory level, at the base, relies on recall without deeper analysis.

The ascending order of memory, understanding and reflective teaching marks rising cognitive demand.
