Explanation

Teachers in higher education institutions must motivate learners to learn independently (statement 2), fostering self-directed study.

Such teachers must be avid readers and active participants in their discipline's discourse (statement 5), keeping their knowledge current.

Teachers in HEIs must be strict disciplinarians (statement 1) is false, as autonomy suits adult learners better than rigid control.

Teachers in HEIs must not use any technology (statement 3) is false, since ICT enhances higher education.

Teachers in HEIs must not interact with students outside class (statement 4) is false, as mentoring beyond class supports learning.

Independent, enquiry-based learning is a core aim of higher education under frameworks like the NEP 2020.
