CompTIA CTT+ (TK0-201) — Question 1
An instructor has been assigned to work with a learner in a one-to-one setting to improve the learner's understanding of a particular subject. When they meet, the learner seems uninterested and unmotivated by the subject. Which of the following would be the BEST way for the instructor to motivate the learner?
Answer options
- A. The instructor should include more handouts, charts and graphs in the instruction period; this will keep the learner on task.
- B. The instructor should remind the learner of the benefits of one-to-one instruction and that they need to apply themselves more during the instruction periods.
- C. The instructor should assign additional research to the learner; this will increase the learner's familiarity and interest in the subject.
- D. The instructor should strive to find out what interests the learner and incorporate these things into each instruction period.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C because assigning additional research can deepen the student's engagement and interest in the subject matter. Options A and B may not address the root cause of the student's lack of motivation, and option D, while beneficial, may not provide the immediate structure that additional research can offer.
