1)   “Anything can be taught at any stage of development”. These words are by:

A) Jean Piaget

B) David Ausubel

C) Jerome Bruner

D) B.F. Skinner

Jerome Bruner is renowned for his belief that any subject can be taught effectively in some intellectually honest form to any child at any stage of development, provided the material is presented in a manner appropriate to the child's cognitive level. Bruner's "spiral curriculum" emphasizes repeatedly introducing and building upon fundamental concepts from simple to complex forms as students progress, which allows for teaching any topic at any age. This directly contrasts with Jean Piaget, who argued that cognitive development is structured in invariant stages and some concepts cannot be taught before the child is developmentally ready.​

Jean Piaget: Focused on stages of cognitive development and believed some concepts are learned only at certain ages.

David Ausubel: Known for meaningful learning and advance organizers, not for this principle.

B.F. Skinner: Associated with behaviorism, not the developmental/constructivist view articulated here.

Ans) C) Jerome Bruner


2)   The Indian Constitution bans untouchability in any form or kind, is part of:

A) Democracy

B) Secularism

C) Integration

D) Nationalism

Article 17 of the Indian Constitution abolishes untouchability in any form and makes its practice a punishable offense. This provision is designed to promote social equality, harmony, and integration among all sections of Indian society, ensuring that no group or individual is treated as inferior due to their caste. The eradication of untouchability aims to unite the nation by removing social divisions and fostering respectful coexistence, thus helping to achieve true national integration and inclusive citizenship.​

Democracy: Guarantees equality and rights, but Article 17's abolition directly addresses social integration.

Secularism: Refers to the separation of religion and state, not directly related to caste-based discrimination.

Nationalism: Focuses more on national pride and sovereignty than on social integration.

Ans)  C) Integration
