CTET Paper II (Social Science) Nov 2012 Solved Paper

Concept:Systematic presentation of concepts follows the principle that development moves from dependence (heteronomy) to independence (autonomy).Explanation:Young children need external guidance and structure (heteronomy). As they grow, they become self-reliant and can connect concepts logically (autonomy).Teachers present concepts step by step, starting with simple, guided ideas and progressing to complex, independent understanding.This orderly shift from external control to self-direction matches the principle that development proceeds from heteronomy to autonomy.Other principles like different rates of development or orderliness do not directly explain the need for systematic presentation.Answer:D. Development proceeds from heteronomy to autonomy
