Pattern of the Mock Test

ENGLISH LANGUAGE
Directions (Qs. 1 10): Read the following passage
carefully and answer the given questions. Certain
words/phrases are given in bold to help you to locate them
while answering some of the questions.
We should never confuse education with training or the
tools the educators use. Education is no more a computer
or an online class than it is a chalkboard those are simply
tools. Additionally, precious few new and relevant findings
have been added to our insights into the learning process;
much of what many proclaim to be insightful turns out to
be faddish and misguided. What we need for learning to
occur are well-prepared and motivated teachers, students
who are willing and able to learn, and a social system that
values educational attainment. Many might take exception
to these assertions, raising a host of ancillary social,
economic, nutritional, and sociological issues. However,
decades of data from failed public experiments aimed at
mitigating these problems argue to the contrary.
What are we to do? Create a wave of educational
entrepreneurship? Despite all of the hype and media
attention, no one currently knows the best way forward.
We must incentivize educationalists, technologists, and
classroom teachers/professors to experiment and
innovate. Such partnerships should freely explore
alternatives as we seek to define the blended, face-to-face,
and online classrooms of the future. Some approaches will
fail, but that is part of the change process

There will be no one-size-fits-all experience; success will

vary by discipline and educational objectives. Unless
everyone involved in this process is inspired to take risks,
we will not enjoy the full potential these new approaches
represent. Also, we should not forget the extent to which
those who most benefit from the current system will
attempt to hijack this change process for their own
purposes.
With these issues in mind, consider the following vision
of the change process to the classroom of tomorrow a
vision that leverages technology to create a more
personalized learning experience. With the onset of this
vision the professor student relationship will change.
What is not likely to survive is the large class in which
everyone progresses at the same place.
That paradigm will be replaced by a more customized
and collaborative learning process. The reality of a
technology-enabled personalized learning environment is
still evolving. What seems clear is that at its heart is a more
collaborative and partially student-mapped and -paced
process. The function of the professor, aided by
educationalists, will also change.
Studentprofessor collaboration will now determine
both what content can be assigned to drill/practice
methods and how the student demonstrates mastery of
that content. In such cases, timing issues will most likely be
left entirely in the student's hands, while technology

www.gradestack.com/blogs

specialists recommend the best hardware and software

solutions.
Critical thinking/application ideas will involve more
specialized, face-to-face, and interactive online approaches
geared to the real-time needs and progress the student is
making. Thus, the professor with the student's help
will vigilantly mix and blend the learning ingredients to
produce a new learning environment. How this process
plays out in reality will be the result of educational
entrepreneurship, but it will surely entail both successes
and some failures.
The administration and accreditation of education will also
have to change. As more education occurs outside the
bricks and mortar framework and is more centered on the
studentprofessor interaction, the role of all non-teaching
staff will need to be reassessed. As students and faculty
increase their use of technology to personalize their
formal and informal learning, educational technologists
must be on hand to facilitate the effective use of that
technology. Also, the current hierarchical and standardized
outcomes formulas for administration and accreditation of
our colleges and universities are no longer tenable.
Realistically, they are an impediment to the change
needed.
Finally, we must address one of the most serious
challenges facing online education cheating. Simply put,
cheating is rampant, and we are turning a blind eye to the
problem. Presumably tuition revenues and the
convenience of online classes are the primary reasons for
inaction. Cheating threatens the integrity of the
educational process, however, and the value-added of the
degree. Solutions must be found and implemented or all
changes will be for naught.

Mobile banking (M banking) involves the use of a mobile
phone or any other mobile device to (16) financial
transaction linked to a client's account. M banking is new
in most countries and most mobile payment models even
in developed countries, to date operate on a (17) scale. A
mobile net-work offers a (18) available technology
platform onto which other services can be provided at
low cost with effective results. For example, M banking
services which use (19) such as SMS can be carried at a
cost of less than one US cent per message. The low cost of
using existing infrastructure makes such services more
(20) to use by customers with lower purchasing power
and opens up access to services which did not reach them
earlier due to (21) cost of service delivery. Al-though M
banking is one aspect in the wider (22) of e-banking
there are reasons to single it out for focus-especially
because there are reasons to single it out for focusespecially because there are a lot more people with
mobile, phones than bank accounts in India.
M banking could provide a (23) solution to bring more
"unbanked" people to the financial mainstream. Without
traditional credit, individuals are (24) to exploitation by
abusive lenders offering very high interest rates on short
term loans also of considerable importance are public
safety implications for the unbanked-they are often
victims of crime because many operate on a cash only
basis and end up carrying significant amounts of cash on
their (25) or store cash in their homes.
