Answer 1

Answer:

C. Dalton plan

• The Dalton Plan is a progressive educational model created by Helen Parkhurst in the 1920s in Dalton, Massachusetts, USA.

• Parkhurst developed a three-part plan that continues to be the structural foundation of a Dalton education: House, Assignment, and Lab.

• The Dalton Plan is a method of education by which pupils work at their own pace, and receive individual help from the teacher when necessary.

• There is no formal class instruction.

• Students draw up time-tables and are responsible for finishing the work on their syllabuses or assignments.
