    Which of the following is a cooperative learning strategy?
    Solutions

    Reciprocal Questioning (ReQuest) is a strategy that is similar to Reciprocal Teaching. Students take on the role of teacher in this activity by creating their own list of questions about a reading selection. The teacher then responds to the students' inquiries. This activity improves reading comprehension on two levels. Students thoroughly examine the reading selection in order to elicit their "teacher" questions. In turn, the teacher reinforces learning by answering questions and, if necessary, assisting students in refining their work into more focused questions. All other given options are inappropriate.

    Which of the following assessment strategies would you NOT use in a progressive classroom?
    Solutions

These assessments pick questions sequentially in order to maximise exam precision depending on what is known about the examinee from prior questions. From the examinee's point of view, the complexity of the exam appears to be tailored to their level of competence. This assessment process offers context-adjusted testing depending on criteria such as an individual's prior test results, current objectives, and other variables. Based on the given parameters, the goal is to provide the most concise, tailored, and accurate testing feasible. All other given options are inappropriate.
