Question

• A. Autocratic
• B. Rigid
• C. Democratic
• D. Laissez-faire

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Democratic

• In educational psychology and classroom management, the democratic style (often called Authoritative) strikes a balance between high expectations and high responsiveness. Structure & Discipline: The teacher maintains clear rules and high standards for both studies and activities. Two-way Communication: By allowing "room for discussion" and "clarification of doubts," the teacher respects the students' autonomy and encourages active participation. The Goal: This approach fosters a positive learning environment where students feel secure due to the discipline but also valued as individuals.
