D1, 2, 3, 4 & 5

Correct answer: (C) 1 & 4 only

Explanation

Teaching is an interaction between a better knower and a lesser knower (statement 1), a relationship built on sharing knowledge.

Teaching leads to insight development in both the teacher and the learner (statement 4), so both grow from it.

Teaching must have corporal punishment (statement 2) is false, as punishment is barred and harms learning.

Teaching must be done by upper class and upper caste people (statement 3) is false and discriminatory.

Only intelligent students should be taught (statement 5) is false, since education is a right for all learners.

The idea of teaching as a shared, dialogic process aligns with Paulo Freire's critique of the banking model.
