Which of the following combines the scopes of large group, small group and individualized teaching methods?
AGroup discussion
BDifferentiated instruction ✓ Correct
CBrainstorming
DDirect instruction
Correct answer: (B) Differentiated instruction — Differentiated instruction combines large group, small group and individualized teaching, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★Differentiated instruction combines large group, small group and individualized teaching, so that is the answer.
★Differentiated instruction adjusts teaching to the varied needs of learners in one class.
★So it moves flexibly between whole-class work, small-group work and individual attention as needed.
★Group discussion is only a small-group method and does not cover the whole range.
★Brainstorming is a short group creativity technique, again not the full combination.
★Direct instruction is chiefly teacher-led whole-class teaching, so differentiated instruction is the one that combines all three scopes.
