Answer:

The options:

A. Concept formation

B. Hypothesis testing

C. Convergent thinking

D. Divergent thinking

The CORRECT ANSWER IS A.

A. Concept Formation

Explanation:

Concept formation gives a platform for students with a chance to make good use of ideas by using interlinks and examining relationships among the items of information. This method aids students in building and sharpening their capacity to remember and distinguish between major ideas, to view similarities and classify relationships, to develop concepts and generalizations, to give clarity on the organization of the data being considered.

Looking at our case study, Mr. Matthew gave enough data on a specific concept (by identifying the

key features of amphibians). We see the data is produced by the teacher or/and the students in his class. Students are motivated to categorise or put together the information and to offer descriptive basis to their groupings (asking students to offer examples). By imterrelating the examples to the labels and by giving a brief explanation on their reasoning, the students develop their own idea and clarity of the concept.

Concept formation lessons are knowledge boosting as it foster the ability to learn, help generate new and clearer idea of the topic being learnt.

Laud Humphreys’s research on homosexual activities in men’s restrooms became a famous case of ethical controversy in social scie
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. Humphreys used license plate numbers to target their homes and interview the men without disclosing the real subject of his study.

Explanation:

Laud Humphreys (1930-1988) was a sociologist who for his PhD dissertation wrote a study called <em>Tearoom Trade</em> (1968), where he studied the behavior of males who engaged in homosexual sex in public toilets. Humphreys made a series of discoveries, like finding out that most of the men who engaged in these practices were not openly or overtly homosexual, and even a majority of them (54%) were married. However, his research was widely criticized because of how he performed it. Humphreys acted out as a sort of look-out for the men in the toilets, but without disclosing his identity as a researcher. Moreover, <u>Humphreys followed the unwitting subjects of his study to their homes by </u><u>tracking their license plate numbers and interviewed them</u><u>, posing as a government health officer and hiding his true identity as a sociologist conducting research</u>. Lying to subjects and hiding from them that they're part of a study is frowned upon by the scientific community, so the research was widely controversial, and it's still brought up as an example of the ethics of social research.
